Raquel, is that you? You can barely make out the model, Raquel Zimmermann, in Alexander McQueen’s S/S 2010 campaign, because she is covered in snakes as colorful as her McQueen jumpsuit. If you look closely though, she doesn’t seem to mind the scaly things crawling all over her. And look at those shoes!
Photographer Nick Knight is responsible for the creative (and creepy crawly) vision behind Alexander McQueen’s new ad campaign.
The picture is stunning and colorful but this isn’t exactly the first time reptiles have been placed up-front-and-center with a noted celebrity. Take a look at a few other models and celebs who were brave enough to play with snakes.

Snakes have made these model (and artist) moments memorable. Without the scaly companions on set, these images just wouldn’t be the same. Can you think of any other moments when reptiles made guest appearances?
