Naomi Campbell’s swimwear comeback for La Perla

Naomi Campbell might be 45, but she’s in the shape of her life and she wants the world to know about it – and what better way to convey this message by modelling the skimpiest garments in luxury fashion, both on and off the catwalks?

Just last week, the British supermodel was handpicked by Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci to walk in the brand’s menswear show (which also served to showcase haute couture), making up the «the ultimate Tisci dream gang» alongside Kendall Jenner, Irina Shayk and Candice Swanepoel. She paraded the last womenswear look wearing a black blazer adorned with silver sequins over a string bikini and thigh-high suspenders. If her body could talk it would probably say: ‘I’m strong, powerful and don’t I just know it.’

Today, images of the Empire actress posing for high-end label La Perla have just landed in our inbox. The Italian brand describes how Campbell “brings her inimitable energy to two stunning portraits shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott” – the photography duo who captured Kate Moss for her Playboy cover in 2013.

The campaign sees Campbell model an unusual, anchor one-piece – the anchor motif being a key design focus for the brand’s new beachwear collection. Forgiving it is not – with less fabric than your average cut-out swimsuit, but Campbell’s taut torso can clearly handle it.

The black, long robe and trousers which Campbell wears in the additional campaign image are taken from the label’s Atelier Collection, which was launched during Paris haute couture week in January and highlights the painstaking techniques and skills employed by La Perla’s artisans in Bologna.

Also on La Perla’s campaign roster are modelling heavyweights Isabeli Fontana, 31; Natasha Poly, 29; Liu Wen, 27 – so women much younger than Campbell, but age doesn’t come into it when you treat your body like a temple, which Campbell evidently does.

Back in 2013, she revealed that she embarked on a 10-day juice diet before walking in the Versace catwalk show for the first time in 14 years. We just hope that when she takes that swimsuit for a spin she can still indulge in the odd ice-cream…
