UST before Brazilian supermodel Izabel Goulart announced nou her engagement to German footballer Kevin Trapp on July 6, it was work as usual for the Victoria Secre Secret Angel, who flew all the way to the South of Fran France for a shoot with luxury shoes and handbag fash fashion house Jimmy Choo.

C Captured on at the iconic Cap Estel Hotel, located just up the coast from Cannes’ famous Croisette, the A-list favorite provided the perfect backdrop for Goulart’s particular brand of sultry glamor. Best of all, she generously shared her personal sty style rules while expertly moving from one editorial to t the next, all laid out for the picking in today’s issue for

As one on of the most photograph­ed women on the planet, Izabel Goulart Goul is a pro at working unexpected red carpet looks. Here she ex expertly models a masculine—but still alluring—tuxedo edo withm with mannish brogues and a hint of midriff.

Shoes a are, Goulart explains, central to the red- carpet recipe. “It’s “It’ the shoes that really set the tone for an outfit, whether wh it’s heels or lace up flats.”

To finish finis the look, she favors a mini clutch, in which she carries carrie her evening essentials: “Lipstick, concealer, gum and my m phone. I really try and keep it edited— what else does a girl really need?”

“Nothing “Nothin beats the Cannes red carpet,” laughs Goulart, kicking ing her enviably env lithe limbs up in the air. “No matter what your schedule, you y know you’re going to leave having experience­d magical moments mo which just don’t happen anywhere else.”

Throug Throughout her 20-year career, the Brazilian bombshell, labelled th the fittest model in the world, has been famed for her high-octane high- o style—and she’s certainly on rare form this season season. Her expertly toned physique and leonine tresses make for a magnetic combinatio­n, but she also advises that accessorie­s can make every look striking. “No matter what you’re wearing, sunglasses add that hint of mystery.”

When it comes to fashion choices, Goulart is a fan of throw-on chic. “I always opt for something new, simple and sexy. For me, it’s really important to keep things easy and not too fussy—you want to be as relaxed as possible so you can enjoy yourself.”

Taking that attitude one step further, the 33-year old beauty was shot in a silk dress paired with embellishe­d Jimmy Choo Oakland sneakers.

Having chalked up a couple of cameos—in 2017’s “Baywatch” film reboot and an episode of “Entourage”— has she ever considered any ideal film roles if she were to transition to the silver screen?

“That’s easy,” Goulart grins, “Julia Roberts in ‘ Pretty Woman!’ I’ve always loved both her more risqué looks and the polished, more ladylike style. She looks so incredibly sexy, whether she’s in the bathtub with her natural curls or dressed for the opera in diamonds.”

With over four million Instagram followers and counting, Goulart is no stranger to a selfie. But when we quizzed her on her top tips, she explained that there’s no exact science.

“When it comes to getting the best shots, whether it’s for an editorial or for Instagram, you need three ingredient­s: good lighting, good angles, and of course, a good photograph­er! With selfies, you don’t want to try too hard. I always think the best images capture a candid moment.”

“On the day of the red carpet I start with a skin glow facial. Then it’s time for hair and makeup. My go-to look really focuses on skin: you want to keep it natural, but radiant. I then keep everything else fairly low-key, but I’ll always have a slick of black eyeliner to define the eyes. You have to remember that it takes a team of profession­als to nail a perfect red-carpet look—hair, makeup, styling, it’s a whole process.”
