Nicki Minaj is the Face of Roberto Cavalli's New Campaign

Rappers are becoming more prominent in the high fashion realm. While recently released The Pinkprint, rap star Nicki Minaj keeps the momentum flowing with a new campaign for fashion designer Roberto Cavalli. The photography, captured by Francesco Carrozzini, depicts Nicki effortlessly sporting various outfits from the brand while rocking a bob-cut hairstyle. Robert Cavalli had decided to select her as the model because of her infamously curvaceous figure. He comments, “I chose Nicki Minaj because she embodies the exuberant and modern femininity of the Cavalli woman. In recent years we have become accustomed to women castigated in clothes that hide their body shapes. With this campaign, I wanted to send a strong countertrend message. I wanted asensual woman who is aware of her body, who is not afraid to show her curves, rather she make them as a strength.” Check out the photographs above and let us know how you feel.
