Bosnian model Andrej Pejic is a ”rising star” in the fashion industry — just landed an ad campaign for Jean Paul Gaultier. With long blond hair and a square jaw, Pejic resembles Karolina Kurkova… but wait, Pejic is a guy, a male who has been modelling as a female. In fact he modelled alongside Karolina Kurkova. (See picture.)
Pejic’s striking androgynous look has been embraced by fashion’s most creative forces, with French Vogue editor-in-chief Carine Roitfeld and leading photographer Steven Meisel among his champions. He walked the Gaultier show during Paris Fashion Week in June and also strode the catwalk for John Galliano. Andrej Pejic has also been signed up by a top menswear label to do the Ad Campaign. Probably with that, Pejic will create history – modelling as a man and as a woman, too!
No doubt, New York Times called the Year 2010 as The Year of the Transexual!
All this while our models thought Cocaine is that magic thing that keeps you slim and trim. Can’t blame them as Kate Moss’ Coke escapades got flashed everywhere and her stylish coke stash, which was a Faberge Egg became every models envy. I don’t know if Cocaine works but yeah the Colombian powder finds fancy with many a leggy lass. And yeah there is this Mumbai based Choreographer who uses a make-up artist’s makeup kit to smuggle in some charlie backstage.
But then Elle McPherson’s disclosure that Powdered Rhino Horn is her Khoobsoorti ka Raaz might just turn Cokehead models to Hornhead ones. Next time you hear any model holidaying in Kaziranga, you know what pulled her there. But girls (and guys), beware of goat horns peddled as Rhino horn!
