Esquire China Local Heroes 2026

Description

Photographed by Xiuyu Chang and styled by Wei Mao for the Local Heroes project in Esquire China, a fashion model stands in an open grassy field under an overcast sky. She wears a bright yellow soccer jersey adorned with a structured sculptural bodice, paired with sheer black lace sleeve extensions. Her avant-garde midi skirt is constructed entirely from rows of black leather coin purses with metallic clasps, paired with textured yellow footwear. She balances a yellow and white soccer ball on her shoulder while looking directly into the lens.
