On Our Radar: International Fashionista Fan Bingbing





Who: Fan Bingbing
She’s a Household Name In: China
Why She’ll Be Known Worldwide: Unless you speak Chinese, you probably haven’t seen any of the films or television shows that have earned Fan Bingbing countless awards and a huge fan following in her native China. If you’ve been paying attention to the front row at the last few fashion months, however, you’ve probably noticed her—although you may not have known who she is. That’s because Fan Bingbing’s fashion sense is hard to pin down; she looks equally stunning in the elegant and elaborate Chinese-inspired gowns she dons on the red carpet and the more avant-garde, free-spirited ensembles she favors for press conferences and fashion shows. She turned heads at this year’s Cannes Film Festival when she dazzled in a gown inspired by a Chinese vase by Christopher Bu and a green Elie Saab clutch (above). Her ability to work different hairstyles—from this classic Tang dynasty updo to long and flowing waves—adds to her chameleon-like sense of style.
