Italian actress Monica Bellucci, known for her timeless beauty, graces the cover of Harper's Bazaar Spain in the September 2023 issue, marking her debut appearance for the publication. Captured through the lens of photographer Rocio Ramos, Monica radiates her signature charm in a mesmerizing black sheer dress embellished with delicate polka dot accents.

At the age of 58, Monica defies conventional notions of age, and highlights her modeling prowess in a series of breathtaking images for the editorial spread. Stylist Claudia Laukamp carefully curated a wardrobe of high-end designs from renowned fashion houses like Alaïa, Giorgio Armani, Prada, Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello, Valentino, Miu Miu, and Louis Vuitton. The creative team, featuring the talents of hair stylist John Nollet and makeup artist Letizia Carnevale, ensured every detail was impeccable. Production management was expertly handled by Beatriz Martínez Velasco.

In an exclusive interview, Monica Bellucci shares intimate insights into her relationship with director Tim Burton, affectionately referring to him as a 'spectacular soul.' This endearing affirmation comes several months after their initial connection. "I found in Tim [Burton] a wonderful spirit. I met a spectacular soul," she expressed during the conversation, which was translated from Spanish. This budding romance comes a decade after her separation from actor Vincent Cassel, with whom she shared 14 years of marriage and two daughters, Deva, 18, and Leoni, 13.

Bellucci also opens up about the complexities of fame, describing it as a "double-edged sword" that both arouses curiosity and evokes conflicting emotions. "Fame is a double-edged sword; it stirs curiosity and can also ignite inner conflicts," she elaborated. Despite her high-profile status, the actress emphasizes the importance of maintaining a sense of normalcy and privacy in her daily life. "When I'm not working, I cherish leading a regular life - going shopping and taking my daughters to school." Monica's grounded approach to life, despite her global fame, is undeniably refreshing.
