Biography
Du Juan is a Chinese fashion model. A former Miss China 2003, Du made her runway debut in Spring 2006, walking for prominent designers such as Valentino and Jean-Paul Gaultier. For the Fall 2006 season, Style.com, the online home of Vogue and W magazine, declared her one of the top ten models to watch.
That same season she appeared in ad campaigns for Louis Vuitton, Gap, Roberto Cavalli, and Yves St. Laurent. Du shared the cover of Paris Vogue with top model Gemma Ward in 2005 and graced the cover of the premier issue of Vogue China. She has also appeared on the cover of the 2006 TIME Style&Design with fellow model Coco Rocha, and is one of the models featured in the 2008 Pirelli Calendar, which was shot in her native Shanghai. Du trained at the prestigious Shanghai Academy of Dance but eventually grew too tall to find a partner.
