Prada, Balenciaga, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu, and Jean Paul Gaultier count on the stunner to add elegance to their runways—and she consistently delivers. As the first Asian model to appear on the catwalk for Victoria’s Secret and score a beauty contract with cosmetics giant Estée Lauder, Wen has opened doors in the industry, but it’s her effervescent presence on and off the runway that makes her unforgettable. Take a look back at 25 of her best moments in the slideshow above for the proof.
