This post-Playboy photography was taken by Nadav Kander and features ex-Playboy models from several decades ago.
Although the men's magazine is now trying to rebrand itself and stray away from overt nudity, it will always be known for producing women's photography in its signature style. Kander's photography shows women post-Playboy and has models such as Dolores Del Monte, an 82 year old woman who was Miss March in 1954. Another model featured is Marilyn Lownes, who posed for the magazine in 1972 and now works as a journalist.
These post-Playboy models reflect the beauty of these women while also inadvertently emphasizing how long the Playboy phenomenon has been a part of North American pop culture.
