FAQ

Shanghai, answered

When is Shanghai Fashion Week?

Dates move by edition. The Cast Index AW26 record ran 25 March–1 April 2026 across Huangpu, Jing’an and Pudong. Use the live event page for the current sheet.

Are Chinese models scored differently?

No. Index Rating is Runway 40%, Campaigns 30%, Editorial 20%, Cultural impact 10%, with published time decay. Nationality is a facet, not a bonus.

Does this desk sell rankings into China?

No. Rankings are never for sale in any market. Affiliate money is firewalled from the index.
