Toccara Jones in July’s Issue of Vogue
Former Harlem resident and one of ANTM’s sexiest plus size contestants, Toccara Jones, appears in the special July issue of Italian Vogue. The issue features over 100 pages of Black models – a first in the illustrious history of the magazine. The photos were shot by New York based photographer Steven Meisel and will feature a slew of well known black models that include Naomi Campbell, Iman, Tyra Banks, Alek Wek, among others.

*Update* I found out the following information on Facebook. Although it applies to London, perhaps it will also apply to the US. Borders should be have them on the shelf by the 15th. Check it out here: http://www.facebook.com/inbox/#/group.php?gid=16239569196&ref=nf
