Suicide Girls - Beauty Redefined explores the Suicide Girl phenomenon from their start in 2001 to their websites one million unique weekly visitors today. This giant tome provides a timely look at the fascinating women who created and inhabit the SG community. With an introduction by SG founder, Missy Suicide and images of hundreds of SuicideGirls world-wide, this title shines a light on a new female aesthetic - a look reminiscent of vintage Betty Page and Bunny Yeager photos, but with a decisively 21st century edge. "There's no other place in the media to see girls (like these) who are tremendously smart and beautiful in their own way" says Missy, "Everywhere you look you just see the super-thin, super-tall, bleach blonde Baywatch babe. There are a lot of people out there who want to see a different kind of beauty." Review: Beauty Redefined - I couldn't think of a more appropriate title for this book. As a child of the 80's, I grew up in the era where tattoos and piercings started becoming acceptable. There is still a certain stigma attached to people with body mods, and much more so for a woman, but I have to say I find nothing more beautiful than a tattooed woman. This book will shed a new light on this subculture and show that these women are as beautiful, and to me even more so, than any mainstream fashion or runway model out there. This is a must see for anyone who loves the beauty of body art and for those curious about something they may have never seen like this before. Review: Great for the table - It's a great coffee table book, as long as you're not hosting evening tea with some proper ladies. The photos are done in great taste and the collection does a great deal to show of the various ways beauty can be displayed. Two of my personal favorites are the way they separated the women into regions and the way some photos have added artistic layouts.

Great for the table
It's a great coffee table book, as long as you're not hosting evening tea with some proper ladies.

True Beauty
This is much more than a simple book of photography. This is a representation of true beauty. The book is very well made and the quality of the photographs is excellent. My copy was signed by quite a few of the models. I would recommend this to anyone who looks outside the box of "cookie cutter" barbie dolls when they look for true beauty.

Nice SG photo album
Lovely photos of suicide girls for those who like the SG style. Wouldn't say that it's "Art", I believe that everybody with some photo knowledge, good equipment and nice models can do those shots (some of my friends are living proof to it), but if you like suicide girls and want something more than site (like another media), this book is for you :)

Pretty pictures...lots of them.
Ordered this book from Amazon because Suicide Girls wanted waaaay too much for it. 20 bucks is quite a steal for this massive hardcover volume. The pages are huge, thick heavy weight paper, and full color. The only thing lacking was the complete absence of text past the introduction. With nearly 400 pages my neck and eyes grew sore and eventually I had to set the book down. The book is mostly thin white girls in little to no clothes (of an emo/goth/punk nature mostly). This includes tons of tattoos, hair in unusual styles & color, body piercings, etc... Basically playboy but cooler (ergo no hardcore sex pics like in hustler or anything). In all well worth the 20 I paid, but I would have shelled out a few more if there had been text to accompany some of the pics. Even quotes from personalities past and present like SG Facebook uses when showing their daily pictorial teaser photo would have earned that extra star. Still a worthy buy for your bookcase.

A MUST HAVE LOVERS OF ALTERNATE BEAUTY AND TATTOO CULTURE.
If you're a big fan of the Suicide Girls, you gotta have this book. It's great whether you're using for you own collection, or if you wanna shake things up a bit and use it for a coffee table book. I'm sure these awesome, tattooed beautiful women will expand the minds of people who visit your home. Maybe it'll serve as a conversation piece.

Great collection
Mature rating for sure. Don't share with minor. Has the photographs from online collection of SuicideGirls. At least one of your favorite girl's photo will be in there. I like many of them. You might enjoy getting the membership online or keep this as an offline alternative for your online album access.

Beauty and Quality
What more can be said about this book than WOW! Not only is the content of the book beautiful, artistic and stylish, the book itself is glossy and the perfect size. I bought this as a Xmas present for my best friend and he LOVED it, I would recommend anyone who is a fan of SG or even just beautiful pornography like this, get this book.

bellissimo libro
E' un volume decisamente ben fatto e di generose dimensioni, le fotografie sono di buona qualità e lo consiglio a chiunque non si accontenti delle immagini del sito "suicidegirls" ma voglia avere materialmente un bel libro da collezione.

Glanzleistung
wer ein Freund von tättowierten Frauen ist, der sollte sich diesen Hochglanz-Schinken holen. Schinken deshalb, weil das Buch doch ein beachtliches Format sowie Gewicht aufweist. Ich war voll und ganz Begeistert :) deutsches Gegenstück : Tattoo Erotica ( vierteljährlich )

un bel ouvrage !
Etant amateur de photographie, de belles femmes et de tatouage, cet ouvrage m'a directement parlé. La communauté Suicide Girls est reconnue de par le monde aujourd'hui et les shooting qui font cet ouvrage sont tout simplement magnifiques. Les photos subliment le corps de la femme sans jamais verser dans la pornographie ou le mauvais goût. La qualité du papier, le nombre de pages et le graphisme général font de cet ouvrage un must !
