A Trip Outdoors 🌤🌻

This month, Chinese Magazine SoFigaro features actress Xia Meng for the cover of its 28th Issue; Summer Light Within or natively entitled 夏梦携着盛夏的光 (lit.: Xia Meng Carries the Midsummer Light).

Harmonising with the summertime nature, Xia Meng graces the photoshoot with her distinctive flair alongside the natural aesthetics of the atmosphere.

🔎 Spotted fits: Miu Miu Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear Collection, Prada Fall 2026 Ready-to-Wear Collection. (This is a none-exhaustive list.)
