Alek Wek graces the cover of the September 2023 issue of Vogue Brazil, wearing a stunning Chanel outfit adorned with floral embellishments. This iconic model made history in 2004 as the first black model to close a Chanel Haute Couture show.
Set in a beautiful Manhattan garden, the outdoor photo session seamlessly combines glamour and nature, blending fashion with the enchanting backdrop. Brazilian photographer, Zee Nunes, skillfully captures Wek’s essence, vividly translating the garden’s vibrant hues into a captivating tableau. Rita Lazzarotti, Vogue Brazil’s Fashion Director at-large, expertly styles this remarkable cover shoot.
The editorial also features stunning attire from various luxury brands. A striking red faux fur coat by Ferragamo introduces a bold and daring element, while an embellished ensemble from Gucci emphasizes dazzling accents.
In addition to showcasing international and domestic fashion collections, this issue of Vogue Brazil pays tribute to Alek Wek’s role as a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Ambassador and her valuable contributions to global humanitarian efforts.
