Arang and the Magistrate actress Shin Min Ah became a Manhattan socialite for the February issue of Harper's Bazaar. The beauty traveled to New York for a penthouse pictorial filled with light, panoramic views, opulence and jaw-dropping fashion.

The statement designer pieces she wore included a gorgeous starfish dress in sheer, white lace and a heavily embroidered mini number with cut-out leaf shapes. All of the stunning clothes she donned were from Valentino's 2015 Spring RTW collection. The elegant collection was inspired by Rome, the Italian capital of ancient architecture, and used rippling treatments of georgette, crystal embellishments, sophisticated cut-outs, and various other traditional techniques.

Shin Min Ah was the only Asian actress invited to Valentino's Sala Bianca 945 Haute Couture show and subsequent flagship store opening in New York's famous Fifth Avenue. Now, the actress has become the face of the latest ready-to-wear collection.

This isn't Shin Min Ah's first time headlining a major fashion campaign. The actress began her career as a model and has been the face of major fashion houses such as Calvin Klein, Rag & Bone, and Giordano. She has also participated in dozens of beauty campaigns and was the first Korean model to grace the cover of Allure Korea.
