In December, Roberto Cavalli announced that Nicki Minaj would be the new face of the company for the spring/summer 2015 collections. The Italian fashion designer released pictures from the photo shoot last month on their Instagram accounts showing a sensual Minaj ooze with class. Luckily for us, Cavalli did not stop there, unveiling footage from their photo shoot with the "Anaconda" rapper. Watch the video below to see Minaj look a natural as she models the various dresses and accessories from the spring and summer collection, via Complex.
The video sees Minaj model the bright, flowing dresses with tasteful cutouts and still manage to be formfitting. Her emphatic movements bring the dresses color and fabrics to life.
Roberto Cavalli commented on why he chose Minaj for the campaign instead of another model.
"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 a sensual woman who is aware of her body, who is not afraid to show her curves, rather she make them as a strength."
Nicki Minaj is still riding the success of her third artist album The Pinkprint, released in December. She became one of the sensations of 2014 with her witty lyrics, smooth delivery and beauty that have created an unstoppable force in not only the music world, but also pop culture as well.
While Nicki Minaj may have her own line of clothes with Kmart, Minaj shows that with this campaign she can blend into the world of high fashion without any problems.
