She looks totally different.

Gisele Bündchen is one of the most recognisable models in the world – except on her latest Vogue cover.

The supermodel graces the front cover of Vogue Italia this month and transformed into the Italian singer Mina Mazzini for the shoot.

The special cover is to celebrate the singer’s 60th year in the business with Gisele sporting statement liner, beauty marks and red hair to complete the look.

However, so convincing was the transformation, we scrolled right past the picture not realising it was her.

Yes, sharing the cover shot on her Instagram page, Gisele said:

“It’s always fun when I get to play different roles while modelling and feel what is like to look completely different.

“Thank you to my sweet friends for making me look like the most iconic Italian singer of all time for a day.”

Speaking about the decision to celebrate Mina on their front cover, Vogue Italia said:

“We wanted to celebrate not only Mina the performer but also Mina the extraordinary creator and influencer of style and her impact on fashion, on beauty, on pop culture.”

Gisele’s look was a modern interpretation of Mina’s famous look and will appear on the next issue of the magazine, due out in October.
