There's so much nudity in French magazines this month that I think I'll move to the US (just kidding).

The runner-ups to "best December issue" are ELLE France and Jalouse (would you believe a double-spread of 32 pairs of tits?). The winner is Vogue Paris, thx to a calendar of ... nude top-models.

And this is not your usual Maxim/FHM/GQ UK calendars: we're talking Jessica Miller, Frankie Rayder, Karolina Kurkova, Tasha Tilberg, Hannelore Knuts, Bridget Hall, Heidi Klum, Maggie Rizer (pic, above), Trish Goff, Helena Christensen, Carolyn Murphy and of course Natalia Vodianova.

All the photographs are by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. French-Box has scanned the entire catalogue at hi-res, and BWgreyscale has kindly uploaded it. The direct link is here.

Oh, and Merry Christmas. Of course, I'll try to post more goodies for the new year, but this is certainly a great beginning.
