AnotherMan China [IG] tapped photographer Szilveszter Makó [IG] for its early-fall, Vuitton-rich 2025 fashion story ‘The Suspended Realm of Cards’, styled by Yun Wuqige. Anne chucked reading the model’s name Bai [IG][pronounced Bye and actually Ruien Bai], who launched his career with a global exclusive with the Prada FW24 show in Milan./ Makeup by Clive x; hair by MingHu Zhang

French men, in particular, often have three — even four — names on Models.com. Bai’s simplicity got our attention and a link. FYI he’s 6’2” with spectacular cheek bones.

The Another Man China text about the ‘Suspended Realm of Cards’ fashion story reads:

Seeing this card now means — perhaps it‘s time to view the problem troubling you from a different angle.
Suspend your thoughts, turn them upside down. Let the black cat decide the direction of the story, while the restless waves mean your dream remains unresolved and will continue to flow.

Anne being true to her forever-pursuit of symbolism and meanings sent out a query on the origin of crucifixions — and exactly who suffered this barbaric punishment.

The list is long but staying true to this fashion story, it is historically documented that non-Christians who practiced occult arts were crucified by the Romans. The practice included women, although Google AI writes that with the declining status of women in Rome, their history of crucifixion is not as well documented.

Both Roman and Jewish law condemned certain forms of magic, and the Romans in particular used crucifixion as a tool to punish many offenses, including some involving magical practices and sedition.

Once again, China Media rocks and rules. ~ Anne
