Linda Evangelista for WSJ. Magazine Fall Men’s Style September 2023 by Steven Meisel

With a super-studded September feature for British and US Vogue, a docuseries for Apple TV+, an art book collab with long time friend and creative colleague Steven Meisel, Linda Evangelista isn’t done making splashes and surprises, gracing another magazine, this time for the Wall Street Journal Magazine’s Fall Men’s Style Issue in an amazingly fun editorial and intimate interview.

Styled by Karl Templer, makeup done by the wonderful Pat McGrath, and photographed by Steven Meisel, in the Fall Men’s Style edition for WSJ, Linda Evangelista talks candidly about life, health issues, her hopeful mindset, and optimism for the future.

“She’s made it to the other side of some long and very dark moments, so being able to look at her career and all that she’s achieved is something she wants to celebrate.”

I still don’t have the words, but I have so much respect for Linda Evangelista. Her strength of character, resiliency, dignity, and altruism are so worth admiring. She’s such a light of kindness, inspiration, and creativity. I hardly have the words, but I can’t thank Linda enough for the love and hope she gives so many.

When I saw you
I could see that it was me, you came to find
By the smile that was on your face

Oh and the pain in my heart
Met the love in your eyes
And it went away

When you told me it was true
What you went through
I tried to thank you
It was something no words could do

I owe love
All my love
I owe everything to you
All of my life, you’ve given love to me

So much has happened since last year. From gracing the cover of British Vogue, closing for Fendi, and even announcing a book with Steven Meisel, Linda Evangelista’s legendary impact on the world of fashion is always felt. You know, grow up watching all these highlights, hearing all these stories of great people who changed our world, and it kind of makes you sad because you weren’t there to see it, so to see Linda on the cover of Vogue or closing for a brand like Fendi means a lot and I feel so fortunate to be able see the greatness of Linda Evangelista.

There aren’t enough superlatives or honors I can throw her way, or kind words I can say. The world is that much brighter, creative, and fun because of Linda Evangelista. You’re truly something special, always iconic, and genuine gift to the world. Happy Birthday Linda Evangelista. Always wishing you infinite happiness and love.

Lady, lady, lady
For the rest of our lives, yeah
Can you take forever ’til the end of our time?
Lady, lady, say you’ll be mine
Always, my lady
For the rest of our lives

You told me everything would be cool
Said I wouldn’t always feel blue
How come I feel like a wreck
How come the skies are all gray
How come my eyes are all red
Why am I alone in bed

You told me everything would be fine
Why am I losing my mind
How come I feel like a fool
Why do I keep losing you
Why do I love in despair
When you’re not there

It’s the way that you hold me
And the way that you kiss me tenderly
I could never feel lonely
You give me just what I need

(Good lovin’)
Always what you give to me
(Good lovin’)
Your love’s got a hold on me
(Good lovin’)
Hey hey, and I know we’ll love forever
Together we’ll be

Please tell me where
Where is my love
Tell me where
Where is the girl of my dreams for me
Oh, where is my love for me. Me, me
Me, eee, eee, eee, eee

In my heart baby, and you know I’m sincere
You know you’re truly somethin’ special and I’ll keep you right here
