In November 2014, Thailand's Apple Model Management became the first agency in the world to represent transgender models in addition to its stable cisgender (non-trans) male and female models. This summer, Apple Model Management L.A. will open its doors to exclusively represent transgender models. 

"We see trans individuals as beautiful," says L.A. agency director Cecilio Asuncion. "Our strong commitment to developing them as successful models is never about quantifying or qualifying their gender. It's never a question of if they are women or men, it's about their passion and commitment to being the best possible models they can be."

The all-important question remains, is there enough demand for Trans models to keep an all-trans agency in business?
