As London Fashion Week Men's kicks off today, eyes are temporarily averted back to the female stars as Kendall Jenner leads a group of models showcasing huge new temporary tattoos.

Joined by Joan Smalls, Lara stone, Amber Valletta, Ellen Rosa and Carolyn Murphy, Kendall fronts one of the 6 covers for the V105 issue of V Magazine which is New York Diaries-themed, celebrating icons that have shaped New York's cultural landscape.

Photographed by Mario Testino and styled by Paul Cavaco, the issue also includes a short interview by Derek Blasberg.

Bringing about the discussion of the eternalness of tattoos in an industry famed for constant change, the cover story consists of how each star has shown their individualism through personal rebellion.

Speaking of her own rebellion, Amber Valletta admitted that her most 'bad ass' moment was for a good cause.

"The most bad ass thing I’ve done in fashion was in the 1990s. I got Versace, the biggest supermodels, the best hair and makeup all to fly to my hometown Tulsa, Oklahoma, for a charity fashion show."

"It was for the local food bank and we raised about $300,000."

Admitting she once got a real tattoo during her rebellious phase, Carolyn Murphy said: "I had always wanted a tattoo so, when I was 25, I got a big one. A very big one."

"It was on the entire right side of my body: a large Japanese koi fish with waves and peonies." However, after a change of heart and leaving her rebellious phase behind she admits "it's almost gone."
