Ben Hassett for VIOLET GREYYowza!
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is baring it all for Violet Grey in one sizzling spread. The supermodel posed completely naked for the series of seductive snapshots photographed in Los Angeles' Pacific Palisades, using only her smize, killer curves and undeniable sex appeal to captivate the eyes of readers.
However, along with the memorable and tantalizing visuals, Rosie discusses working in the industry and recalls the first time she stripped down to her birthday suit for a photo shoot.
"I had just started modeling," she says. "I was in London, and it was a different time. I honestly think I was a lot more free when I was younger. Kate Moss was my favorite supermodel; she set the standard in terms of nudity as fashion and art."
The blond bombshell adds, "I think being comfortable in one's skin is the most attractive quality a girl can have. Beauty for me is about a good workout routine—that and a signature scent, preferably one that smells like a garden rose."
So Rosie smells like a rose...interesting.
Huntington-Whiteley also reveals that there is a certain motto she lives by. "I believe who you surround yourself with is a reflection of yourself. There's a quote I have always liked by Will Rogers: ‘It takes a lifetime to build a good reputation, but you can lose it in a minute.'"
And although the 27-year-old has gained a lot of success in her career thus far, she has still set certain goals for herself that span beyond modeling and acting.
"Being a model, being an actress—it's not decided by you. You're chosen. You're cast, and that's fantastic, of course. There is always a sense of pride when you make the cut, but there has always been a big part of me that wants to make things happen for myself. I'd like to get myself into a position where I'm starting something on my own. That's my focus for this year."
