LEOLA SAYS:
I wanted to be one of Helmut's girls.
But alas! T'was not to be.
Not to be deterred by mortality, I decided to dress up and pretend.
HELMUT NEWTON ONCE SAID:
There are two dirty words in photography; one is 'art',and the other is 'good taste'.
Beauty is intellect.
And glamour has nothing to do with money.

SuicideGirls… became famous for embracing beauty in every shape and form — meaning bodies covered in tattoos, having bright-colored hair, and being outside of traditional beauty norms were celebrated. The name comes from the idea that women who commit “social suicide” by being different come together.
A nation wide art-sleaze phenomenon.
It’s like a punk rock Vogue…with artful nude photos of women.
Fifteen years ago, a small-but-passionate community that celebrated beauty in alternative, pinup-style photography was born. It was called SuicideGirls.
They’re the girls next door - but more colorful and with better record collections.
SuicideGirls respond… in the best way possible.
The meeting place for people interested in alternative lifestyles.
SuicideGirls is as much about community as it is about naked photos of tattooed women.
SuicideGirls is redefining concepts of beauty across the globe.
