Model Nimue Smit is the spitting image of a young Madonna in the Glamour Netherlands February 2013 editorial. Rocking a short tousled hairdo courtesy of hairstylist Irena Ruben as well as thick black brows, shadowed eyes and red lips thanks to makeup artist Suzanne Verbreek, the Dutch beauty could easily switch careers to become a celebrity impersonator.
The Glamour Netherlands February 2013 editorial was lensed by photographer Philip Riches. Heavily influenced by the material girl's '90s style, the wardrobe consists of a lot of lace, black and fingerless gloves. Styled by Renu Kayshap, the looks could easily inspire some of Madonna's own designs for her aptly dubbed Material Girl Collection. If Lourdes Leon didn't have a say, of course.
