The annual Victoria's Secret Show is coming again. The Victoria's Secret Show in December this year was not only held in Shanghai, but the "Chinese Legion" also increased to an unprecedented six.
Chen Yu, who made her debut, is only 19 years old this year, is 178 cm tall, is of Chinese descent of French origin, and was born in Lucheng, Wenzhou.
used to be the only Chinese face on the Dior show
In the eyes of his parents, Chen Yu is still a little girl, who just took the French college entrance examination last year. After
was selected, Chen Yu posted a number of Weibo, very excited, unable to fall asleep, crying... She said that this experience was like a dream, and she never thought it would happen to her.
"As parents, we don't have much to say, just to be happy for her." Yesterday, Chen Yu's mother Fu Liang was in France and chatted with her daughter through WeChat. Fu Liang said that Chen Yu’s father was a second-generation Chinese born in France. “I went to France more than 20 years ago and met her father in Paris. Chen Yu was born in Paris and belongs to the third-generation Chinese.”
2013 , Chen Yu, who is only 15 years old, has already won the selection of the Elite French division, representing the French district in the finals of the Elite World Model Elite Competition, and successfully entered the top 15. Finally, like her elder sister Xi Mengyao, she entered Elite Paris, the world's largest model agency.
In 2015, 17-year-old Chen Yu was invited by Dior to embark on the brand's autumn and winter haute couture runway, becoming the only Chinese face in the season, and later appeared on the cover of the Italian version of Vogue.
At the beginning, Chen Yu was proud of being the only Chinese face. But she said that it was very frustrating to think about it, because other Chinese who competed on the same stage lost the opportunity to be on the international stage.
The caring girl next door
in life is on the runway, and Chen Yu's fighting power is exploding!
She once said that everyone can definitely find the Bole who appreciates them, and people of any color are qualified to be on the stage that belongs to them. "When I saw Asian models active in this circle, I gradually realized that beauty is diverse."
And in daily life, she is a lovely, caring girl next door.
On Weibo, she often publishes her breakfast. In order to keep in shape,
prefer to eat sweet potatoes. Although she is already in good shape, she still broke the news in the live broadcast that her goal is to lose weight from 49 kg to 47 kg...
Last year, Chen Yu had something sad. She raised a little rabbit and accompanied her for 9 years. She is a veritable "Grandpa Rabbit". Chen Yu even joked that she hoped that "Grandpa Rabbit" would be the longest-lived rabbit in the Guinness World.
But "Grandpa Rabbit" could not hold on. "My beloved bunny is gone... It used to grow up with me to play with me, our whole family loves you, Puffy, you are the cutest rabbit in the world, and I hope you can feel me when you are with me Take good care of you." In October last year, she posted a message on Weibo to mourn "Grandpa Rabbit".
Loves to return to Wenzhou and will speak Wenzhou dialect
Chen Yu has a strong family concept. I like to spend my birthday with my family, "I want to be a child and don't want to grow up!"
Chen Yu's grandparents live in Wenzhou. Although she grew up in France, she still learned to speak Wenzhou dialect. Mother Fu Liang said that Chen Yu likes China and Wenzhou very much. Since she was a child, as soon as the summer vacation came, she would often go back to her hometown in Wenzhou to see her grandparents, visit her uncle and aunt, and enjoy the time with her elders.
She especially likes Wenzhou food, snacks with Wenzhou characteristics, especially glutinous rice balls.
