Alesya Kafelnikova turned heads once again after appearing on the January cover of Author magazine. The 27-year-old model delivered a bold, fashion-forward shoot, mixing leopard prints with a daring sheer, barely-there dress—a look that perfectly matches her confident runway image.
For the editorial, Kafelnikova tried on standout pieces from Tom Ford, Dolce & Gabbana, Balmain, Alexander McQueen, Giuseppe Zanotti, and several other luxury fashion houses. Each look played with contrast—soft versus sharp, classic versus provocative—showing why she remains one of the most talked-about faces in fashion right now.
This isn’t her first major international moment. Earlier, Kafelnikova starred in a photoshoot for the Arabic edition of Vogue, adding yet another high-profile project to her growing portfolio. She’s also a regular at Paris and Milan Fashion Weeks, and about six months ago, she appeared in a campaign for Vivienne Westwood, which sparked plenty of online discussion—including rumors about cosmetic procedures.
Despite constant media attention, her personal life is steady and low-key. In 2021, she married businessman Georgy Petrishin, and the couple are raising their four-year-old daughter, Kiara.
With every new shoot, Kafelnikova continues to prove that she’s not just a model—but a fashion force with staying power, effortlessly balancing high fashion, public curiosity, and real life.
