Shaw wears designs by British-Nigerian breakout designer Mowalola Ogunlesi, who also conducts the interview.

Philadelphia-born, New Jersey-raised Shaw reflects on her Alexander McQueen AW96 Dante show walk, where she stuck out her tongue directly to the audience. Shaw was wearing a gothic mask emblazoned with a crucifix. Her Spring 1997 McQueen appearance was even more memorable.

Debra Shaw, 41, is styled by Jan Kralicek in wow images by Dan Beleiu. The entire team operates on steroids -- better yet an ancient, ancestral vision that gains clarity on peyote -- in this stupendous cover story for Vogue Portugal's May 2018 issue. / Makeup by Katerina Brans; hair by Hikage Yumiko

Vogue Italia profiled Shaw, who has a history as a successful runway model, in March 2010, writing "Shaw always wanted to be a fashion designer, but became instead one of the best-known top models of the 90s, a muse and friend of  John Galliano. Now she lives in Paris, where she is a successful fashion consultant."

Vogue Italia also shared a 1997 Peter Lindberg editorial with black beauties in a large couture spread.  Staggering away from the beauty of this Vogue Portugal editorial, we'll be taking an in-depth look at Debra Shaw. 

Gifted photographer Dan Beleiu is based in Berlin.
