Authors of transgender fiction have written many stories on the theme of the male who became a female fashion model. What is it they say about "truth is stranger than fiction?" A young Serbian-Australian man is now the hottest thing on the female fashion runways of London and Paris. His* story trumps many of the fictional ones I've enjoyed reading here.

Here is an interview by an Australian television station with Andrej Pejic, his family, peers, and others in the fashion world.

* -- I'm using the male pronoun because Andrej uses it. He identifies not as a woman, but as an androgynous man. He models both menswear and women's fashion, although he admits he finds it more difficult to do the male work. His name is male, his identity androgynous, his presentation female, and he doesn't seem to care what people think. Andrej breaks the binary model, and I for one, cheer. Oh, and judging from what I found on the 'net, he has about a zillion fervent fans, fansites, fanblogs, and more, and what seems like a thousand pics.
