As one of the few models to ascend to the numero uno position on Top 50, Raquel Zimmermann has had the kind of career few models can hope for. Top tier campaigns? Booked em all. Coveted covers? Been there, done that. Seeing Raquel on the cover of Italian Vogue this month isn’t all that surprising, but Steven Meisel’s image of the famously blonde Brazilian as an aloof brunette feels unexpected. The curly wig renders Raquel almost unrecognizable and the simple image, lets us know that were in for a studio shoot all about transformation.

Given the apt “versatile” headline, scrawled on the cover in lavender letters, were guessing that Meisel understands exactly what Miss Zimmermann’s appeal is all about. No one disappears into a new guise quite the way she does – take a look at the wildly different, flame haired look on her previous VI cover almost a decade ago.

I couldn't be more in love with the models.com description of her. :D : (Y)

Thanks for pics. She is amazing and versatile. This is Raquel's season!

We gave you a taste last week but Raquel Zimmermann‘s stellar turn with Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott for Vogue Nippon is worthy of a second mention. With a fresh platinum mane and George Cortina‘s killer futuristic styling Raquel turns it out on the white sand beaches in a story that is light and colorful while retaining Mert & Marcus’ signature eerieness. The familiar resort setting (complete beach chairs and gulls flying in the background) adds another layer of intrigue to the story as do the unique jewels courtesy of Tom Binns.
