I love it when gorgeous models get all dolled up for a super badass editorial shoot, and Colette Pecekhonova plays the role of Betty Badass perfectly for Flair Italy's August '09 issue.
The editorial above was shot by Jem Mitchel, who captures Colette Pecekhonova in lots of black posed suggestively in front of a vintage muscle car. My uneducated eye says it's a 1968 Chevy Camaro, but it's tough to focus on anything but Colette Pecekhonova's shimmering platinum blonde hair.
