Issa Rae is going for gold.

The “Insecure” creator, 36, covers the June issue of Vanity Fair wearing the same sculptural gold Saint Laurent bra that Hailey Baldwin modeled in the pages of last month’s Harper’s Bazaar.

While Baldwin was styled with artistic gold foil around her eyes, Rae’s makeup look was kept classic with a bold lipstick and bronzed eyeshadow to emphasize the body jewelry.

The solid piece of metalwork is part of Saint Laurent Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello’s Summer 2021 collection and was inspired by the French fashion house’s 1969 collaboration with jeweler Claude Lalanne, which included a cast of legendary model Veruschka’s bust.

That same collab also inspired Tom Ford’s $15,000 “anatomical breastplates” from his Spring 2020 line, worn by both Gwyneth Paltrow and then Zendaya.

Rae wore her gold cover bra underneath a black suit, also by Saint Laurent.

Inside the magazine, Rae sported a pleated blue suit by Robert Wun, a crisp white suit by Givenchy sans shirt and a purple sequin Valentino Haute Couture turtleneck, the latter of which Dan Levy wore in a chartreuse color for the 2021 Golden Globes earlier this year.

Rae discussed filming the final season of “Insecure” and re-watching the hit HBO show’s first episodes as she closes the chapter.

“All these memories come up, so I can’t watch it purely objectively. And then, of course, you look at performance stuff, you look at hair stuff, you look at appearance stuff. You’re just like, Okay, wow, I went on TV like that?,” she said.

Clearly, Rae is much more secure now.
