Trans representation is incredibly important. Normalizing trans bodies on our magazine pages helps every trans person feel a little bit more comfortable in a world that can be very difficult for them.

Of these spaces, there is no better example than Sports Illustrated or Victoria’s Secret.
Sampaio’s shoot for Sports Illustrated is the latest in an ongoing trend towards inclusivity in the fashion and entertainment world.
