Linda Evangelista

Linda Evangelista is a Canadian model who became a central figure in the supermodel era of the late 1980s and 1990s. Her frequently changing hair and ability to adopt different characters in photographs made transformation a defining feature of her work. Her career includes international magazine covers, advertising and both ready-to-wear and couture shows.

A long creative partnership with Steven Meisel began in 1987. The book Linda Evangelista Photographed by Steven Meisel brings together more than 180 images from twenty-five years of their collaboration. Their work shows the model as an active participant in the construction of fashion narratives.
