“There is complicity and trust between us,” Iglesias says of his relationship with Cruz, with whom he has worked for more than twenty years, both on set and on the red carpet. Cruz was heavily involved in developing the beauty for Valentina, and for this look—which she sports in her first appearance onscreen—the two were aiming to define the character’s personality. “We wanted it to be stunning and super sexy,” Iglesias notes. The inspiration was ’90s supermodel Cindy Crawford meets ’60s starlet Monica Vitti, resulting in an interesting and sophisticated—but still very seductive—Latina look, says the artist. “We combined eyeliner with very well-defined eyebrows, and left her hair uncombed because she’s been wearing a motorcycle helmet, giving her wildness and strength,” he explains.
