Andreja Pejić (English pronunciation: /ənˈdreɪ.ə ˈpɛdʒɪk/; born Andrej Pejić, 28 August 1991) is an Australian model. Before completing her transition into womanhood in late 2013, Pejić was known as the first completely androgynous supermodel. Today, she is the most recognisable transgender model in the world.
Pejić was born in Tuzla,Yugoslavia (now part of Bosnia and Herzegovina) and has one older brother, Igor. Her mother, Jadranka Savić, is a Bosnian Serb, and her father, Vlado Pejić, is a Bosnian Croat. The couple divorced shortly after Pejić's birth. During the Bosnian War, Pejić and Igor fled to Serbia with their mother and grandmother, settling in a refugee camp near Belgrade. After the refugee camp, the family settled in Vojska village near Svilajnac.
After the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, Pejić's mother felt unsafe and decided to initiate the process of emigration to Australia. In 2000, the family moved to Melbourne, Victoria, Australia as political refugees when Pejić was eight years old.
