PHOTOS: Posh & Polished Puppies!

Transsexual Model Poses Nude In French Vogue (NSFW)
Contrary to those who believed that Riccardo Tisci‘s casting of a transgendered model in Givenchy’s Fall 2010 ad campaign was a gimmick, Lea T. has become a veritable fixture in the fashion world, walking in Givenchy’s haute couture show and posing in last month’s Italian Vanity Fair.

Photographer Terry Richardson is one of fashion’s most provocative players and it’s no wonder why the constant controversies surrounding him make the 44-year-old no stranger to our newsfeed.

Designers Raid Grandma’s Furniture For Fabric
