- Photography: Cruz Valdez

Versace, Chanel, Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana—name a famous fashion house and supermodel Brandi Quinones has served as their muse. Her face was ubiquitous in the 90s, her work taking her all over the world and onto the covers of magazines like Elle and Vogue. But Quinones isn’t dwelling on the past. Forget perpetual nostalgia, she’s already back on the runways walking for contemporary newcomers like Landlord and Vaquera. In this SSENSE editorial, photographer Cruz Valdez and stylist Marcus Cuffie spend a rainy day in the studio with Quinones testing out some of Fall/Winter 2018’s freshest new pieces.
