At a time when the impossibly perfect Victoria's Secret models and airbrushed Jenner/Kardashian clan are heralded as the beauty ideal for many young girls worldwide, it's refreshing when a new face appears on the scene who challenges and subverts "conventional" notions of prettiness. Though tattoo artist Grace Neutral may not yet have the millions of followers to rival Kylie Jenner or Karlie Kloss, her star is swiftly rising, following her appearance in the SS16 Ashley Williams show, the recent release of a clothing collaboration with Motel, and the hundreds of thousands who follow her on Instagram to see her intricate designs and striking appearance.

Often referred to as the "purple-eyed alien princess", former ballerina Neutral has undergone numerous procedures to alter her appearance, including having her ears pointed, splitting her tongue, inking her entire body, scarification, and the removal of her bellybutton. "My idea of beauty is just feeling completely comfortable in your own skin and exploring your own beauty without the weight of the media or society on your shoulders. True freedom of expression is the most beautiful thing in the world," Grace told us. Here she shares her beauty icons.

Grimes

“One of the most inspiring musicians to come out in the past 10 years and her ethereal energy and style is so endearing you can’t help but fall in love with everything about her.”

Alis Peleshi

“She is a photographer/stylist/fashion designer/all round alien princess. Alis has one of the most unique and beautiful looks I have ever laid my eyes on. Her fantasy fetish style has the perfect alien, warrior princess vibes. I like!"

Bjork

“Again it’s the whole element of fantasy that Bjork brings to her performances with her individual fashion ideas and aesthetics.”

CocoRosie

“They are two sisters [Bianca and Sierra Casady] who make music to invoke a magical fantasy land and that really reflects in the way they dress.”

Jessicka Addams

“Last but not least, Jessicka from the band Jack Off Jill. She was my goth idol growing up and I will love her angsty goth teenage style forever."
