Entitled Vision Quest, the shoot featuring Linda Evangelista by Mario Testino for V Magazine is one hell of a ride. Veiled in an entirely red outfit, the [Canadian supermodel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chinese-golden-age-models) channels her inner dark and dreary personality to emphasize the shoot's grunginess.
