A [space odyssey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/axiom-extravehicular-mobility), it is filled with alienesque imagery that is both surreal and artistic. The white strings that pattern the backdrop add a geometric element that is reminiscent of scientific discoveries, be it on earth or in space. The [purses and clutches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendis-summer-2025-campaign) seen throughout the Mia Numero China editorial can be considered a scientific discovery in this context. Lensed by Beijing-based photographer Charles Guo with digital coordination by Antoine Neufmars, the Mia Numero China editorial appears in the May 2012 issue of the magazine.
