Esquire China Local Heroes 2026

Description

Captured in black and white by photographer Xiuyu Chang for Esquire China's 'Local Heroes', this outdoor fashion editorial features four models styled by Wei Mao under a low-hanging tree branch in a park. One model rests on a park bench with his foot on a soccer ball, while three others stand beside him wearing eclectic combinations of sporty garments, goalkeeping gloves, ruffled skirts, tailored shirts, and athletic pants. Natural daylight filters through the foliage above, creating balanced contrast across the figures and grassy lawn background.
