12 Tattooed Show-Stoppers of the Fashion Scene

As the doors of the fashion world fully open up to tattoos, let's see some of the best tattooed noisemakers on and behind the runway.

The fashion world rarely seems to have any shortages of ink these days with the army of tattooed models and tattoo-inspired couture, it's exciting to see each release every season from some of the most celebrated fashion brands to rising, relatively unknown stars ready to conquer the scene. Aside from Cara Delevingne, there are tons of other fashion insiders turning heads with their ink. Here's some:
