In addition to the campaign, she will endorse Roberto Cavalli’s eyewear, accessory and ready-to-wear lines. In a statement, Cavalli praises Nicki’s famous figure as inspiration for the campaign :
“I chose Nicki Minaj because she embodies the exuberant and modern femininity of the Cavalli woman. In recent years we have become accustomed to women castigated in clothes that hide their body shapes. With this campaign, I wanted to send a strong countertrend message. I wanted a sensual woman who is aware of her body – who is not afraid to show her curves. Instead, she makes them her strength,”
