Playboy magazine has decided to stop nude models from appearing on its cover, after 62 years of constantly doing so. Kristy Garett, 26, has been selected to be Miss February 2016 - the last playmate to appear in the pages of Hugh Hefner's famous men magazine.
Marilyn Monroe was the first playboy model published in December 1953, and the first centerfold was published in 1956 with actress Marian Stafford.
Garett, who will have a 12-page spread in the special January/February 2016 issue on sale next week, believes it could change her life.
'I was so proud to do Playboy,' she told the New York Daily News. 'This is history.'
'It's such a big deal. It's so iconic. Being the last nude Playmate makes me cry and feel happy inside.'
Garett says she was influenced to pose for Playboy as part of her desire to settle in the USA.
'Playboy has a classic American story,' she said in an interview with playboy. Com . 'And I want to be a part of it. 'The lifestyle here, where you're free to express yourself, is my type of life. I am proud of the woman I am and have always dreamed of being talked about because of that.'
