This fall Jean Paul Gautier debuted his Fall 2011 collection and with that he had selected a very interesting model to be in the show. This lovely young woman (shown above) is in fact a 19 year old man. His name is Andrej Pejic and he has been crossing the lines between female and male for his entire life. This speaks volumes about an adrogynous trend in the fashion industry. This is a ever growing trend in fashion and could possibly have been inspiration from the LGBTQ community. Andrej Pejic is not the only androgynous person in the spotlight, singer Elly Jackson from La Roux and model Agyness Deyn have been known for their androgynous looks. This trend in androgyny begs the question, "is the new female ideal to look like a man?"
