Andrej Pejic, Fashion's New Gender Bender

He's the new face of Marc Jacobs, has Cindy Crawford's bone structure, and Kate Moss' body—but Andrej Pejic is a 19-year-old Serbian boy. Isabel Wilkinson on the fashion industry's androgynous new trend.

Damon Baker, a 19-year-old British photographer, went into a dark karaoke bar in Covent Garden last summer. In the back of the smoky club, he saw a woman with high cheekbones, long platinum blond hair, and wide-set blue eyes. She was, as he puts it, "the most beautiful girl you've ever seen in your life." They started flirting. Only a few minutes into their conversation did Baker realize: She was a he.

And that he wasn't just anybody. He was Andrej Pejic, a 19-year-old male model who has taken the fashion industry by storm. He has Cindy Crawford's face and Kate Moss' body—give or take a few parts.
