Meghan Collison is surrounded by [plush toys and stuffed animals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urupocha-chan) on the cover of Numero China's #44 issue for November 2014.

It's one thing to have hobbies, but a full-grown woman with a [stuffed animal collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloudheads) is pretty unsettling. Perhaps that's kind of the point behind this cover, which features Collison giving the camera a disquieting stare, almost as if daring us to judge her. Or, on the other hand, it could be a matter of encouraging adults to embrace their inner child? Collison wears a luxurious [fur coat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boss-2) accessorized with a candy necklace to drive the point home. Hey, some of us just don't ever want to grow up.

The editorial was lensed by photographic duo Sofia Sanchez and Mauro Mongiello.
