This is what I call a catwalk--using a cat as a model for an edgy fashion shoot.
This is a collection of images from a brilliant shoot here for Vice Magazine that mixes the most tolerant cat in the world called Rico with a fashion shoot.
Photographer Elza Jo and stylist Kiki Wong have both done a brilliant job. Despite featuring a cat, the images remain very cutting edge without Ricco attracting the 'cute' factor. He looks like a badass cat anyway.
