From jaw-dropping ball gowns, to history-making billboard signs, these women are serving fashion goals on a platter. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD OUR APP AND TAKE US WITH YOU ANYWHERE! When I think of stylish celebrities, Janet Mock falls in my top 10. I fell in love with her adornment for architectural pieces. Everything she wears has an elegant, edgy shape to it. Although she has a great sense of style, it’s her innate sexiness that elevates every garment she puts on. Janet is one of my favorite trans women killin’ the fashion game, but there are so many others. Check out 5 transgender women you’ll want to see on your style radar.
