He had me fooled!!!

Male teen turns heads on catwalk

An Australian man has been turning heads as a women's fashion model on the catwalk at London Fashion Week.

Andrej Pejic, 19, has become flavour of the month in the cutting edge world of women's couture.

The 6ft 2ins teenager was discovered while working at a fruit market in Melbourne at the age of 17.

With killer cheekbones, long blonde hair and slender figure, top designers think he looks perfect in their creations.

He has worked for Jean Paul Gaultier and appeared at the Vogue 15th anniversary party that launched London Fashion Week.

And he looked so good in a Gaultier wedding dress at Couture Week in Paris that singer Rihanna bought the same dress to wear at the Grammy Awards.

Mr Pejic, who was born in Bosnia but grew up in Australia, says one of his ambitions is to model for Playboy photographer Terry Richardson.

"I would love to do Playboy. Being cast as a woman is not something with which I feel uncomfortable," he said.

"My friends were surprised to see me in a wedding dress in a couture show. That was probably something they didn't expect - but they're all supportive."
