The Numero China Back To The Future editorial places model Du Juan within a dark mailing room. This seldom seen postage motif comes through stacked boxes marked with stickers, images that one would otherwise find in a courier office.

Back To The Future was executed by photographer Yin Chao. Chao made the set appear quite chic with dim lighting, picking up on the backdrop and on Juan in the most subtle of manners. Working alongside Chao was stylist Joseph Carle who juxtaposed the to be sent packages with exceedingly [opulent apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity). Carle did so with shining gold belts, [pleated red dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) and long flowing skirts. When paired with the [high bouffant looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chinese-golden-age-models) of hair expert Zhinguo He, Juan appeared fit for a gala affair.
