Ciara not only has a hot video on air now called "Ride," she also has an new LP coming out soon and she is also going to be in an editorial spread in the upcoming July edition of Vogue Paris. The R&B singer, who is also a Wilhelmina model, has lost some extra weight and it seems like her work paid off now that Carine Roitfeld took notice of her. The editorial spread was shot in black and white by the photography duo of Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. The extra bonus was that the shoot was styled by Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy. We must say kudos to her for her stylistic evolution. Like one of her videos is titled, we say "work!"

Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci may have just broken some new ground in the upcoming Fall/Winter 2010 ads that will appear in July's edition of L'Uomo Vogue by featuring a transgender person. This evolution of how fashion itself can be portrayed is only natural, since many designers now create clothing that is best described as "gender-ambiguous" and androgynous. The transgender model is a Brazilian named Lea T., who happens to be his longtime personal assistant and a former fit model for his namesake line. Lea is an excellent choice for a fashion house that has become known for being unisex in its design aesthetics. Now who is going to be next in featuring transgenders? Possibly Rad Hourani or Rick Owens?
