MODELOS: V Magazine Special Edition: 19 Covers By Paul Rowland.

Alana Zimmer (Supreme)

Paul Rowland knows the language of beauty inside out, which means he's able to subvert its vocabulary.

Alla Kostromichova (Women)

In a blockbuster 96-page supplement to V61, Rowland and his collaborators spin through the wild and untamed worlds of Women and Supreme, presenting an ode to 21st-century beauty.

Darya Kurovska (Supreme)

"Joel-Peter Witkin, paganism, mysticism, vampires, witches—all the things I love," Rowland explains of his inspiration.

Isabeli Fontana (Women)

The result is some of the rawest and most personal imagery around, as seen through the lens of Rowland (who shot these covers, plus a beautifully haunting fashion story) and his co-conspirators: art photographers Hanna Liden, Richard Kern, and Katy Grannan, each of whom take a turn dressing and undressing the sister agencies' top mannequins.

Ranya Mordanova (Supreme)

Rowland, whose lavish and intricate agency show packages are the talk of the industry each season, has a creative verve that extends beyond model agency moving and shaking, and into photography and fine art.

Mina Cvetkovic

After this outing, however, he might need his own magazine as well.

Iris Strubegger (Supreme)

V Magazine Special Edition: The World of Women/Supreme is available in select cities with V61, on newsstands September 1, 2009.
