The British GQ Lara Stone pictorial is a racy reel of half-covered curves to help kick off the issue that also holds the Men Of The Year honorees.
As GQ's honored Woman of the Year, Stone graces the cover hugging a crisp, white, and presumably men's shirt, with an alluring and aloof come-hither stare. Shot by famed photographer Mario Testino, the editorial inside the men's mag includes Stone wrapped in a fur stole and a barely there bathing suit while frolicking beachside. A black-and-white showy shadow shot is thrown in and it saves the spread from being too bawdy by adding some artsy Bardot-esque class.
The Dutch model best known for her gorgeously gap-toothed grin is sure to rocket British GQ's readership ratings and blood pressures alike.
