It cannot be denied that the ELLE Brazil 'The Special Model' editorial is yet another fierce photoshoot by International model Coco Rocha. The cover shoot may have strummed up a lot of controversy regarding the Canadian beauty's strict policy against nudity, but overall it is tastefully sexy and elegantly embellished.
Shot by photographer Max Abadian for the May 2012 issue of the magazine, ELLE Brazil The Special Model editorial is filled with shimmering, patterned fashion that is complemented by digital illustrations bordering some of the shots. The brunette beauty was styled by William Graper in pieces from the spring collections of such labels as Gucci, Balmain, Roberto Cavalli and Givenchy. Dark lips and a low ponytail finish the looks.
