Introduction
She was twenty or so, small and delicately put together, but she looked durable. Her hair was a fine tawny wave cut much shorter than the current fashion of pageboy tresses curled in at the bottom. She walked as if she were floating. She came over near me and smiled with her mouth and she had little, sharp predatory teeth, as white as fresh orange pith and as shiny as porcelain. They glistened between her thin, too taut lips.
"Tall, aren't you?" she said.
"I didn't mean to be."
--Raymond Chandler "The Big Sleep" 1939

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.
