The calendar, famous for its nudity, has not disappointed this time either but has a very different selection of women as opposed to the usual supermodels that grace its pages. For its 2016 edition, the calendar is moving away from its overtly sexy aesthetic to an exceptionally inspiring one as the supermodel lineup has been replaced by powerful women of achievement -- like tennis superstar Serena Williams, actress Amy Schumer, director Ava Duvernay, singer and activist Patti Smith, blogger-turned-actress TaviGevinson, and even 65-year-old author Fran Lebowitz.
The result is a stunning collection of black-and-white portraits captured by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz that depicts these female luminaries -- some clothed and some stripped down to almost nothing.
Leibovitz said the Italian tire manufacturer's annual calendar would be "a departure" and it certainly is, considering the only model featured is Natalia Vodianova, who is also known for her philanthropy.
But who said that substance and sexiness are mutually exclusive. We are certainly not complaining
