culture and life

As siblings go you don’t get much hotter than Penélope Cruz and her younger sister Mónica Cruz. Now Mónica Cruz is set to step out of the shadows of her actress sister as she has stripped down to her underwear as the face of luxury lingerie brand Agent Provocateur. The 35-year-old dancer and actress is seen vamping it up in the Tim Pope directed video “Wilhelmina: Show Your True Self”, inspired by Victorian London.

Borrowing from current must-read book Fifty Shades of Grey, the video is shot in the House of Detention, a former prison in Clerkenwell. Cruz, clad in a white, lacy gown, steps in front a Dickensian-style character’s camera for her close-up. Then her true self is shown through the lens as Cruz transforms into a seductive vixen, gyrating amongst chairs and chains clad in Agent Provocateur’s racy new Autumn/Winter 2012 collection.
