Updated on 7/31/2014 at 1:15 PM

She may have earned her reputation as the preeminent domestic goddess and world's most renowned hostess, but Martha Stewart also has a fierce fashion game. The most striking proof of that could be the newly released Porter editorial, shot by one of the style world's most buzzed-about photographers, none other than Terry Richardson. But before she was busy posing in her Burberry alongside her crew of dogs, horses, and her cow, Martha was living a very fashionable life of her own.

That shouldn't come as a surprise from a woman who actually started out as a Ford model, but since she's gone the way of lifestyle expert and crafting queen, we thought we'd remind you just how Fashion — with a capital "F" — Martha really is.
