Kate Moss And Lea T Make Out On The Latest Cover Of Love

Justin Bieber isn’t the only one covering this issue of Love. Kate Moss and Lea T are also featured on a cover for the magazine. Together. Making out. Love is officially genius.

Transgender model Lea T landed her first magazine break back in November, when she graced the cover of Lurve. Riccardo Tisci‘s muse is the perfect choice for the cover of Love‘s androgyny issue, while Kate is a bit of surprise. And yet it totally works! We love the clever gender play going on, with Kate styled as a man and Lea as a woman. And that kiss!

Pretty boy Biebs is a more tongue-in-cheek pick, and we wonder if the pop star was notified that his cover would in fact be for the androgyny issue. We hope the answer is yes, and that he was fair game. We are also dying to see what his cover looks like. There’s no word on how the Bieber Love connection was made, but mag EIC Katie Grand did share how she and Lea met: “I was by the pool at the Copacabana Palace Hotel when I saw her. At first I didn’t notice her gender, just that she was wearing Givenchy couture and looked amazing!” Apparently Grace Jones was at the pool, too. We, sadly, were not.

Great article, yours is the first coverage of this that I’ve read that isn’t in any way childish or hostile about trans people! Congrats!

Seriously hot cover too.

In the continuing stake of de sexualizing fashion and by extension the hyperbole that surrounds it (even though paradoxically it is used to sell and position merchandise and ideas that draw on sexual innuendo) the fashion world has once again reinvigorated itself by continuing to position the neutral state of gender.
Which is to say, sexiness no longer hinges on distinct female or male hegemony definitions but rather the aberration of said definitions. Which is not to say all sex or the idea of it is dissolved, it’s just now the subjects are depicted like young amorphous Ancient Greek kouros sculptures reveling in it- but with barely a trace of personal emotion. Thus neutral androgynous figures partaking in amorous states of undress or to be correct redress.

In short to be as far away as overt sexuality has become the new hyper sexual, especially with the guise of the androgynous or neutral.
