Playboy Features French Model Ines Rau As First Trans Playmate

October 20, 2017. Leave a Comment

Playboy magazine is featuring model Ines Rau as its November Playmate, marking the first time the magazine has featured a trans Playmate.

The Paris-born Rau has been shot for Vogue Italia and was also featured in a Balmain campaign. She was also shot for Playboy‘s May 2014 issue. Photographed fully nude by Ryan McGinley, the story was a big moment for Rau. “It’s how I celebrated my coming out, actually,” the 26-year-old told Playboy. “I took that chance, and then I signed with an agency.”

In speaking on the feature, Rau wrote on Instagram, “I am proud to be making history and breaking boudaries! I want to thank the Hefner family and Playboy enterprise for the compliment! Being asked to be a Playmate was for me like getting a giant bouquet of roses. I am also flattered and beyond grateful.”

Playboy has featured trans models in its magazine, but not as a Playmate. Actress Caroline “Tula” Cossey appeared in the magazine in 1981 though wasn’t openly trans.  After her identity became public, Playboy featured her in a 1991 issue.

Ambrosio and Tordini see the street as the most democratic of spaces, where life happens and fashion truly comes alive. In press with WWD Tordini shared, "We didn’t work over the past seven years thinking about how one day we would have hosted a runway show. That was never our priority, we worked to build the company."

Oozing of a certain cool, the brand is beloved by many fashion creatives, as Vogue noted attendees included Ferragamo’s Maximilian Davis, Gucci’s Sabato De Sarno, Jerry Lorenzo, Moncler CEO Remo Ruffini and DSquared designers Dean and Dan Caten, to name a few.
