Sharing stunning images from the shoot on social media, Minnie opened up about the experience that sparked what she calls a lasting “love affair” with the magazine.
In the heartfelt post, Minnie credited the powerhouse glam team that helped bring the vision to life.
“I had my dear friend & celebrity hairstylist @ursulastephen who at the time was responsible for Rihanna’s iconic pixie era… and makeup artist to the stars @luckysmyler who pushed me that whole shoot to go for the shot and kill it!” she wrote.
She also gave a shoutout to celebrity stylist and designer @stevenkinlock, saying, “He still keeps me on my toes and insists I have a @mr.kinlock piece in my closet constantly.”
What made the shoot even more special for Minnie was that it all started with her own bold idea.
