The 2019 edition of the legendary calendar has been shot by Scottish photographer Albert Watson, 76.

In a departure from the overly sexualised shoots of years gone by, the current edition opts for a more sophisticated and empowering tone.

Addressing the arrival of the new calendar hot on the heels of the Me Too movement, Watson told : "It seemed to me the wrong time to be getting a bunch of supermodels to a beach and have them take their tops off. So I moved the nudity away from a Playboy pin-up. It was like that for many years, and done with good taste and by good photographers, and I have no problem with it.

“[My] idea was always that women were trying to do something with their life. I much preferred that to women taking their tops off.”

The calendar's release come just days after Gigi stunned on the catwalk for the annual Victoria's Secret Show, another legendary event in the fashion calendar.
