在這個世代,很多人還在視模特兒是一份發明星夢的職業。殊不知道,模特兒與奧運選手一樣重要。她們代表了一個地方的審美,同時把這份美麗散佈全球。尤其近年時裝產業推動不同種族和地區的多樣性,模特兒的任務此時此刻變得更為重要。過去十年,中國在不同方面也獲得激烈的增長,成為了全球關注的一個國家。站在國際舞台上,我們能夠看見劉亦菲飾演迪士尼電影《花木蘭》,也看到李冰冰與范冰冰進攻荷里活,無時無刻為國增光。在銀幕背後,時裝產業則由劉雯起義,翻新了外地對於東方美人的印象。

早在2008年,劉雯第一次參加時裝週,一炮而紅,總共走了27場時裝展。然後在2009年期間,一個月內走了74場shows,高峰期達一天6場,創下亞洲模特走貓步最多的紀錄。

同年,她成為了首位亞洲模特兒,登上了Victoria’s Secret的舞台,改寫了維多利亞秘密的歷史,為這種傳統的性感添上了一滴東方色彩。這個壯舉為她日後成為中國超模埋下了很好的伏筆。

一年後,她成為首位Estee Lauder的亞洲模特全球代言人,同年,成為Met Gala內首位以個人身分受邀的中國女星,也成功登上國內女星出席Met Gala次數最多的榜首和「出席Met Gala的最年輕亞洲女星」記錄保持者,同時多次榮獲「最佳着裝」獎項。

2010年的劉雯開了一個很好的頭,然後在2013年的MODELS.COM Top50的榜單上位列第三。2014年成為首位入選MODELS.COM “New Supers”的亞洲模特,同年更以700萬美元的收入打入Frobes “The World’s Highest Paid Model”第3位的模特兒。

劉雯多次的第一次已經成為亞洲模特界的一個時代標榜,她不忘初心的同時,亦不斷改寫屬於自己的新歷史。相信連劉雯自己兒時也未想像過自己有如此大的成就,出生於基層家庭的她,當時只是參加模特兒比賽時被經紀公司所發掘,才無意踏上她的星途之旅。

她的故事教會我們,我們不應把生活條件當成追求理想的阻礙。不論我們多麼渺小,我們總需要反抗生活的荒謬、追求心中的理想來為賜予自己生命的意義。
