Andrej Pejic causes confusion at San Paulo Fashion week
This year is definitely Andrej Pejic’s year. The androgynous male model has broken down barriers on the runway, on magazine covers and in print ads.
At the San Paulo Fashion Week, Pejic took two turns on the Lino Villaventura runway, one in menswear and one in womenswear.

The handsome blond beauty first walked the runway in a slouchy black suit, and then closed the show in a dramatic charcoal gown with ruffles.
Pejic was recently in the news after FHM named the male model its 98th sexist women in the world.

Pejic has had a constant battle with the media about his gender and modelling.
Last month he featured on the Dossier magazine cover taking his shirt off with curlers in his hair, reportedly censored by Borders and Barnes & Noble.
When Pejic was asked what he thought about the cover he said, “I think the question really isn't the gender of the person on the cover, it's whether it's porn or it's art.”
What are your thoughts on the androgynous model? Do you think gender-bending models are the way of the future?
