Portrait photographer Robyn Twomey took her camera and her gimlet eye to the Former Playboy Bunny Reunion in Las Vegas, and the results are unapologetically fabulous. Where I could, I’ve paired them up with photos of their Bunny years. I think they’re still lovely women, but there’s much more to these portraits than physical attractiveness or sexuality:

“These headshots are the result of my interest in the women of Playboy and where they are now. The tight frame and non-retouched images allow space for one’s personal reflection on age and beauty. The body language suggests even more about who these women are: strong, beautiful, fragile, provocative, and everything in between. They are complex characters that are proud and empowered by their beauty and sexuality, at the same time stricken by the fleeting nature of it.” —Robyn Twomey

She even managed to get Gloria Steinem to pose for a portrait. In case you didn’t know, for 11 days in 1963, Steinem infamously went undercover as a Bunny and then wrote a scathing 2-part article for Show Magazine about her experience (Part I, Part II).

Criticize the institution if you will, but there’s no denying these women’s portraits are full of power. You go, girls!
