Andreja Pejic

Why We Love Andreja: Bosnian-Australian model Andreja Pejic began her career as an androgynous male model in 2010. After transitioning and becoming one of the first transgender models in the industry in 2014, she openly talked about the experience and the modelling industry's reaction to that. Since then Pejic has appeared on the covers of Vogue, Elle, and Allure and made her film debut in 2018 in The Girl in the Spider's Web.

Andreja's Style: Andreja Pejic has embraced a feminine style, and she has stood by that through controversy. In 2012, Russian entrepreneur Miroslava Duma criticized Pejic for wearing feminine clothing, claiming she would never publish someone like her on her site. Pejic responded to the controversial statements by shedding light on the current state of the fashion industry, claiming in an Instagram post, "Fashion hasn't always celebrated, to quote [Duma] 'people like us.' Today I can say I've walked for iconic designers like [Marc Jacobs] and even landed on pages of American Vogue as none other than myself."
