The annual Weibo Vision Awards once again lit up the entertainment scene, featuring dazzling appearances from both rising stars and established actors.
Actor Zhang Linghe looked effortlessly charming in a classic black suit, while Bai Lu turned heads in a white strapless gown that perfectly balanced elegance and allure.
Among mid-career actresses, Yang Mi, Mao Xiaotong, and Myolie Wu all impressed with their radiant looks. Yang Mi, in particular, was hailed as the “Blue Peacock Queen” by netizens for her stunning red-carpet outfit, reaffirming her top-tier status.
Yet, the most talked-about duo of the night was none other than Guan Xiaotong and Jiang Xin, the on-screen “mother-in-law and daughter-in-law” from “Small Alley People.”
Guan Xiaotong: A beauty let down by her styling team
At just 28, Guan Xiaotong remains one of China’s most photogenic young actresses, but her recent red-carpet appearances have drawn criticism for lackluster styling.
At the Weibo Vision Awards, she wore a champagne-pink tulle gown with gold embroidery—an elegant design that, unfortunately, hid her long legs and accentuated her broader shoulders, creating an unflattering silhouette.
Her second look, a black tailored suit with sleek straight hair, appeared too plain, prompting netizens to joke she resembled a ceremony hostess.
Despite this, Guan’s naturally delicate features and youthful radiance shine through. A simpler, fresher aesthetic would highlight her best qualities far better than forced maturity.
Jiang Xin: Elegant, poised, and radiant
In contrast, Jiang Xin dazzled in a black sequined gown adorned with rose-shaped embellishments. The outfit accentuated her elegant neckline and statuesque figure, while her loose waves and confident posture exuded quiet sophistication.
With a successful run of acclaimed projects like “Small Alley People” and “In the Name of Law,” Jiang Xin continues to command attention. Her upcoming dramas “The Game” and “Four Joys” are already generating anticipation.
When the two actresses stood side by side, Jiang Xin’s composure and luminous aura drew widespread praise. The visual contrast between her mature charm and Guan’s youthful sweetness became one of the night’s defining moments.
Final Thoughts
As award season approaches, red-carpet looks remain a battleground for stars and stylists alike. Guan Xiaotong’s natural beauty deserves better fashion direction, while Jiang Xin proves that confidence, discipline, and elegance only deepen with time.
