TAOS TIME: Japanese actress and model Tao Okamoto leads a new crop of East Asian beauties currently making waves in fashion and film.

There was no shortage of attractive faces at the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice premiere-Henry Cavill alone is enough to double any event’s attractiveness quota-but the evening also provided Hollywood with an introduction to one of fashion’s finest: Tao Okamoto, who has been a presence within the modeling industry since the early aughts.
