Amanda Lepore Is 1950s Glam As ‘Cinderella Lepore' For Iconiq
Amanda Lepore, the world’s most recognizable transgendered platinum blonde, posed for this very elegant editorial photographed by Portuguese fashion photographer Helena Cristina Henriques.
The photo shoot, titled Cinderella Lepore, was produced by Cosmonaut Phoebus. In one set, Lepore poses in a black and white polka dot Jantzen swimsuit with a beaded Lanvin necklace and Michael Kors zip-up sandals. Stylist Diana Suyat pushed hard for range though, so Amanda Lepore was given decidedly more risque styling later in the shoot, wearing items like a band of spikes wrapped around black leather pants.
