BRUCE WEBBER FOR VOGUE GERMANY 30TH CELEBRATION








German Vogue celebrates 30 years with Bruce Webbers vision of mancandy.


AND YET ANOTHER GREAT GAGA EDITORIAL.






Miss GaGa seems to have found a kindred spirit of sorts in Nicola Formichetti as this is like the 3rd editorial they do together, here its for Vogue Homme Japan issue that came out on the 11th.
Shot by the amazing Japaneese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki, this shoot is by far the best collabo between the GaGa and Nicola.

TOM FORD: SINGLE MAN


Tom Ford goes from strength to strength, having directed his first ever feature film starring Colin Firth, Juliana Moore and Matthew Goode, called A Single Man. Colin Firth was awarded for best male actor at the Venice film festival for his role in the movie.
The trailer looks stunning, cant wait to see it.
“It's really a film about love and isolation that I think all of us feel, so it is very universal,” Ford explained of the ‘gayness’ of the movie at a news conference.“When I see someone who sees the film and says, 'It's a gay story,' I don't even know what they are thinking, it just seems to me a human story.”

DAVID LACHAPELLE + MICHAEL JACKSON


David LaChappelle, genious photographer and one of my absolute heroes, pays tribute to the late king of pop with this image, for The Sunday Times magazine. The image is a part of a trilogi inspired by Mexican saints cards.
Amazing, beautiful, controversial.

Greek Pete

Ok so it doesn't get much smaller than this. Filmed with a £5000 budget and a film crew of 2, Greek Pete is, needless to say a labour of love.
The docu-film was filmed over the course of a year, following around a couple of London rent boys.

"The film blurs the boundary between fiction and documentary, giving an authentic and intimate insight into the boys’ lives. Honest, non-judgmental, and sometimes explicit, the film offers a portrait of a sub-culture hidden from view."
Truly an astonishing small film that deserves some support.

IAN COLE FOR TOPSHOP






I always tend to find Topman campaigns slightly boring, kind of too much of the same thing.
However I love the feeling of cool Brittania that Ian Cole has captured in these images. And the collection is deffo one of the best from Topman i've seen in ages. H&M you should learn from this.
