Supermodel Candice Swanepoel is almost unrecognizable as she models dramatic facial piercings in stunning new Givenchy campaign
Supermodel Candice Swanepoel has swapped her Victoria's Secret bikini for a collection of edgy facial piercings to star in a dramatic new campaign Givenchy.
The 26-year-old Victoria's Secret Angel appears in the Italian brand's gothic-inspired autumn/winter 2015 campaign alongside models Stella Lucia, Aliz Menyhert, Mariacarla Boscono and Greta Varlese, among others.
The South African stunner's face is marred by large silver studs that are hanging from her cheeks, chin and ears in two of the campaign images, which made their debut on Instagram Wednesday afternoon.

In the image she dons a navy silk and chiffon ensemble, which features red piping, and is paired with calf-length boots.
