The Vogue China June 2012 'Shear Heights' photoshoot displays the best of urban landscapes with a towering aerial perspective. Model Shu Pei is found here atop a high-rise building, gleaming above the city with her excessively long dark tresses.
Those with a fear of heights should be advised to avoid this windy Vogue China editorial. The Shear Heights production was executed by photographer Lincoln Pilcher who here managed to focus attention upon both Pei and the beauty of the gritty metropolitan atmosphere.
Stylist Morgan Pilcher added to the dazzling cosmopolitan display. Pei's presence amid the skyscrapers was augmented by formal billowing gowns, white wide legged pants and draping shawls, all of which popped out amongst the jagged thoroughfares.
