FOREIGN Minister Julie Bishop has appeared in her most glamorous photograph yet, and she looks absolutely stunning.
Ms Bishop wore a Giorgio Armani dress and heels for the shoot and interview which appears in Who magazine’s annual Most Intriguing People list, which was revealed today.
Ms Bishop used the shoot to deliver a serious message about the gender divide in Canberra: “I wish there were more women in Cabinet. I think women make a great contribution to discussions; they offer a different perspective.”

She also offered a rather unique description of her current role as Foreign Minister.
“I see myself as Australia’s relationship manager, I can’t imagine a better job than the one I have,” she said.
After notably rejecting the “f-word” — feminist — earlier this year, Ms Bishop continued to dispute the idea that sexism was a problem in parliament.
“Discrimination exists in all areas in society,’’ she said.
“It’s how you deal with it. But how could I say I’ve experienced it when I’ve been elected by my peers to be deputy leader of the party and Australia’s first female Foreign Minister?”
Ms Bishop said she would be spending Christmas with her family in her home city of Adelaide: “They all live in the same street. We allocate tasks and mine is normally to buy the chocolates. I have to get into the line at Haighs on Christmas Eve. That’s not easy; it’s a zoo.”
