Alongside her, Alexander is sat upright with intent in the black-and-white snap, resting his chin onto his fist, while staring out in the same direction as the model.
Photographer Albert Watson explained that the 2019 calendar tells a photographic tale of the aspirations of four women and their determination to achieve their goals, each one pursuing her own dreams and passions.
Gigi portrays a character who has recently separated from her partner, lives alone in a glass tower and has Alexander Wang as her only friend and confidant.
He said: 'I think there's a degree of angst in these images. With Gigi Hadid's character, I wanted to convey the sense of a woman thinking about her future, but also showing her in a situation of loneliness.
'We see her thinking about where she is going to go in life, what she will be doing tomorrow. I wanted it to be much more minimalistic than the other women and settings I photographed.'

In the third snap of Laetitia, released by Pierelli, the supermodel is paired with Sergei Polunin once again, and the pair are photographed dancing a seductive duet, with three moments breathtakingly captured within one black-and-white image.
Photographer Albert Watson explained that Laetitia plays a painter who lives in a studio apartment with her partner, played by Sergei Polunin. They both dream of success: she as an artist, he as a dancer.
He said: 'What's interesting is that, in real life, Laetitia really does do a lot of sculpting and creates artwork in her spare time. This worked out very well and helped her get into character. We decided to shoot outside, to give the scenes some added natural brightness. The tropical atmosphere of Miami is a key component in this picture.'

Photographer Albert Watson explained that Misty Copeland's character in the Calendar looks to the future, fantasising about making a name for herself in the world of dance.
He said: 'Trying to be successful is her driving force. Copeland's character earns her living by dancing in a club, but at the same time she has also put up a little stage in her garden, where she practices dancing in order to become a star, sometimes with her boyfriend, played by Calvin Royal III.'
Intense: The Perks of Being a Wallflower star Julia Garner, 24, displays her ethereal beauty and piercing eyes in a powerfully intense close up shot which sees her hold rather dry-looking flowers close up to her face

In 2016, Pierelli broke the mould with their calendar, famously shunning supermodels in favour of 'women of achievement,' and in its 2017 edition, Pirelli once again opted for a similar theme, celebrating 'natural beauty and femininity' by showcasing some of Hollywood's most glamorous and mature stars.
2018 saw the Italian tire company feature an all-black cast in its cult almanac for the first time since 1987, annd now, the 2019 calendar tells a photographic tale of the aspirations of four women and their determination to achieve their goals, each one pursuing her own dreams and passions.
The 2019 Pirelli 'Dreaming' Calendar, now in its forty-sixth edition, was shot by Albert Watson in April in Miami and New York and was unveiled on December 5th at Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan.
The 10 images released by Pirelli give just a glimpse of the full sequence of forty shots, which tells the stories of characters portrayed by Gigi Hadid with Alexander Wang, Julia Garner, Misty Copeland with Calvin Royal III and Laetitia Casta with Sergei Polunin.

Standing out: The model kept warm in a long line blue trench coat, and shielded her eyes with a pair of angular shades
The photographs, in colour and black and white, are in the cinematic 16:9 format, inspired by Albert Watson's passion for the art of film.
He said: 'When I approached this project. I wanted to do it in a way that was different from other photographers, and I wondered what the best way would be. In the end, I looked for pictures that were of beautiful quality, with depth to them, and that had some kind of narrative.
'I wanted to create something that was more than just a portrait of somebody – I wanted it to look like a film still. I wanted people looking at the Calendar to see that my aim was photography in its purest form, exploring the women I was photographing and creating a situation that would convey a positive vision of women today.'
Telling the story of how he came to make the Calendar, the Albert Watson spoke of his own dreams, and of the efforts and sacrifices that they entailed.

He explained: 'To make a dream come true, you have to work hard. I've always taken it step by step, reaching one goal at a time, without wanting to get immediately to the top of the ladder.
'Even though I sometimes think this ladder could go on up forever, with the top rung ever further away, I think it's always worth giving yourself increasingly ambitious goals and dreams.'
Albert said that each of the four women focuses on the future and 'has her own individuality, her own particular purpose in life, and her own way of doing things.
So the underlying theme is that of 'dreams', but the basic idea behind the whole project is that of telling a story in four 'little movies'.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
