Andrej Pejic Is A Better Marylin Monroe Than She Was
Call me weird, but I'm mildly obsessed with androgynous model Andrej Pejic. One, because he's insanely versatile--he walked in both mens and womens clothing in several shows this year-- two, because he's hilarious (he once faked a pregnancy in an airport), and three, because he totally lives up to his title of 98th Sexiest Woman (yeah, you read that right) by FHM magazine. Love Cat magazine, which I have never heard of but am now intrigued by, put out first a video (cheekily titled "Norman Jean") and then photos of Pejic as Marylin Monroe a la the JFK time period. Styled by Patricia Field, the Monroe resemblance is uncanny: thick cat-eyes, pouting pink lips and, of course, the blond wig. Plus the styling is so perfect--a salmon letterman jacket, a fuzzy, tight blue sweater and, last but not least, an electric blue dress made of what seems to be cellophane-y plastic paired with a neon pink headscarf and retro sunglasses. I'm not sure which I like better, the real Marylin or Pejic's campy vixen version.
