When people think Gothic, they don't often think of grace, yet that is exactly what readers will get in the Modern Weekly China 'Dancer in the Dark' editorial. Channeling her inner dancer, model Ali Stephens leaps, twirls and poses dramatically for the camera. Since she is clad in a range of billowing black dresses, it is natural that she would want to embrace them in this way.
The Modern Weekly China 'Dancer in the Dark' editorial was shot by photographer Jumbo Tsui. Showcasing a range of monochromatic designs from such labels as Haider Ackermann and Louis Vuitton, the mysterious looks were put together by stylist duo Lawrence Xiao and Liu Xiao. They were perfected with hair by Tetsuya Yamakata, Makeup by Aya Komatsu.
