As the year is beginning to wrap up, it is clear that fashion magazines are saving their best editorial shoots for last, and the Xiao Wang for 10 Magazine #41 Winter 2011 photo shoot is certainly no exception.
The 22-year-old Chinese beauty stars in the British magazine in a series of photographs shot by Christian Anwander and styled by fashion editor Sophia Neophitou.
Wearing a diverse range of looks from a sexy lace mini-dress to an outrageous floral jumpsuit, Xiao Wang poses in front of a large fan wearing a sequin and mesh mask that makes her look like some sort of otherworldly creature (in the most high fashion way possible, of course).
The Xiao Wang for 10 Magazine #41 Winter 2011 shoot is definitely one of this year's most memorable series.
