When Venus Meets Instagram

Xia Molin’s Maldives photoshoot isn’t just pretty pictures - it’s a masterclass in turning beach selfies into high art! As a visual designer, I’m obsessed with how she weaponizes sunlight better than most influencers use filters.

Bikini or Renaissance Art?

That ‘controversial’ high-cut swimsuit? Please - Botticelli’s Venus did it first! Xia just added 21st century agency and better lighting (though I’d kill for those Maldives golden-hour specs in Photoshop).

Pro tip: Next time someone complains about ‘provocative’ poses, ask them if they’d rather stare at classical nudes in museums. Same energy, different century!
