At the risk of sounding boastful, I consider myself quite the model-ista. I have a way of flipping threw a magazine and picking out who you are going to be seeing a lot more of and whose time is up; and I have never seen someone blowup in the modeling world as fast as Andrej Pejic.
Andrej Pejic: Gaultier haute couture 2011
19 year old, Andrej has made a name for himself in the world of high fashion modeling as "The Femme-man" or "The boy who looks like a girl." After only one years of modeling, legendary French designer, John Paul Gaultier booked him for both his male, and female catwalks and designed his entire male collection around the boy from Broadmeadows, Australia. That is not to say John Paul Gaultier gave him his big break but when such powerful forces like Gaultier and Marc Jacobs love you people really start to pay attention. He was voted the 11 most in demand model of 2010 and just one year later shot straight to the top of that list. His relatability as a pop culture celebrity paired with his undeniable, androgynic beauty is what makes him catch the eye of anyone looking at him. He has been quoted more then once on the fact that he sees what he is doing as a job, a more enjoyable job then KFC, he admits but if he had to give KFC a try he said there would be no problem. His highly publicized androgyny is by far, the freshest look the fashion world has seen in a very long time and it is sure to become hotter and more widely accepted as time goes on. In my highly accurate, model-ista opinion I have a feeling Andrej is going to be around a long time, possibly joining the ranks of the great super models before him.
