Lavinia Bernardi

Lavinia is the kind of model who makes a room feel inhabited. A native of Emilia-Romagna, she has the generous proportions and easy Mediterranean physicality that recall a certain golden-era Italian glamour — without the performance.

Her copper-red bob and the dense map of freckles across her shoulders and décolleté have become quietly iconic in the agency's work. She is not interested in perfection; she is interested in presence. Her images tend to feel discovered rather than constructed — which is perhaps the highest compliment one can pay a subject.
