So I suppose I shouldโ€™ve been prepared for Naomi Campbellโ€™s appearance in the February 2018 issue of Love magazine. But trust: I was not ready.

Reuniting with photography team Mert and Marcus, the legendary supermodel and actress stuns on the cover in a snakeskin-embossed dress designed by her late friend and mentor Azzedine Alaรฏa, whom she also discusses in the issue, which hit stands Jan. 24. I think itโ€™s safe to say of Campbell that, at a still taut and toned 47, they just donโ€™t make them like this anymore. Iโ€™m just going to start calling her โ€œthe Last Unicorn.โ€

While Campbell has already had a Barbie made in her likeness, no doll could possibly compare to the real thing. Forget #BodyGoals and #AgeGoals; Naomi Campbellโ€™s eternal beauty is officially #SlayGoals!
