Numero China's 'The Truth' editorial will be included in the December 2012 edition of the magazine. Fitting with the winter season is the publication's [sole focus on outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection), seen here in Eniko Mihalik's jacket-only ensembles.

Stylist Joseph Carle clothed Mihalik in a series of [heavy overcoats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsaks-lucia). Carle stayed true to Numero China's passion and penchant for mod couture with his incorporation of structured, [color-blocked apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shein-layering-lines) and rhinestone-studded overcoats. The looks are at the same time classic, a trait of quality apparel.

The Truth remains neutral-toned with only a few pops of orange, blue and pink. Photographer Gianluca Fontana can be thanked for this lesson in simplicity, displaying just how little is required when dealing with an established model like Mihalik.
