He made headlines by wearing a leather Versace pencil skirt to meet with the Queen of England in October.
"Let's face it, we all love a good queen," he told Out, which shot him posing with a snake in homage to a similar portrait of Nastassja Kinski. (All of this year's images are inspired by iconic portraits of the 20th century.)

Andrej Pejic Named Stylemaker Of The Year By Out Magazine
http://www.stylecaster.com/celebrity/16612/andrej-pejic-named-stylemaker-year-by-out-magazineIf anyone rightfully deserves to be honored for style by Out Magazine in their 17th annual Out100, it's androgynous superstar and one of my favorite working models today, Andrej Pejic. Come on, the guy wore heels and a Versace pencil skirt to meet the Queen of England -- he deserves all the recognition he receives!
Oh, and speaking of his infamous Buckingham Palace turn he states he was going for a "'90s Sharon Stone look." The fact that anyone preparing for a royal event would have Basic Instinct on the brain makes me love this dude even more. But it's not all stilettos and sunshine for Andrej -- "The truth is I have to work twice as hard to be taken seriously," he says.
