Earlier this month, as part of New York Fashion Week, Supermodels Unlimited Magazine hit the runway with the #YOLO (You Only Live Once) Show benefiting The Trevor Project. Hosted by The Bachelorette’s Jordan Kimball and with America’s Next Top Model alums Jeana Turner and Laura Kirkpatrick on the catwalk, the show called attention to LGBTQ youth in crisis.
