In a world that's sometimes short of real acceptance, it's incredible to see a woman like Andreja Pejic rise to the top of her field. It's not every day you see a trans model break into the world of high fashion, but with looks like hers Andreja Pejic was born to be a supermodel, and an extremely attractive, motivated and hard-working one at that.
It might have been her early turbulent life that gave her the bravery to push through later prejudice and backlash. Born in Tuzla, in Bosnia, her family fled when she was barely a couple of years old during the terrible Bosnian War, then fled again from a Serbian village when NATO bombs started falling in 1999. The family moved to Melbourne, Australia, and it was there she was discovered.
