Return of The Crown Pt2 - My Flaws are Perfect

As you are all aware I've only just started updating my blog again. As promised I have come to tell you what I have been up to in my absence. So you all know Perfectly Flawed right? What? You don't? O.K well it's one of the coolest brands to come out of London this side of the millennium. Quite frankly there's no excuse not to know. Anyway, I got my modelling face on for the SS09 collection and all I can say is, damn I look good.

The thing about Perfectly Flawed is the work that goes into the design process is actually immense. Each garment is hand printed in London so you can be guaranteed that every product has been personally inspected for quality by the designer himself and everything is limited edition. Let's be real, Perfectly Flawed is a hot brand. The T-shirts are hot, the vests are hot the tracksuits are hot. There's no reason not to own something from there. Click here for the online store.



P.S
I literally live in the stuff I love it that much.

Are You Part New Era?

Around this time last year I was on a shoot for New Era the ever popular cap brand. I was on the shoot not as a stylist but as a model for their newly launched SS 09 apparel look book.

Check it out...

It was a wicked day of shooting, I had a serious amount of fun. The shoot did run on for a very long time but I made some good friends on the day so it was well worth it (And I was being paid). You may have noticed in the group shots my guy Raphaël D'Ascenzo working his stuff too.

I also did the advertising campaign for their hats which was featured on their website, in iD magazine, SuperSuper and various other places.

There is a huge poster of the group shot in the New Era flagship store and the only reason I go in there is to look at it. My picture is even on some promotional postcards in the store. Make no mistake, I have 20. I think I may use them for sigining autographs...

It's official, I'm obsessed.
So what, Jon Kortajarena is the hotness and I'm not trying to deny it.

Get to know...









See what I mean!

Desiel ss 09

Diesel advertising campaigns are always pretty cool but this has got to be my favourite.


It's a current one so you've probably seen it around. It's a wicked image in bothe senses of the word. Sexualy charged fetishism meets edgy street styling . It's almost on a Tom Ford level. I also love the fact that they used Jon Kortajarena who ironicaly was a star in many of Tom Fords previous campaigns. Jon is undeniable hot. I don't care who you are or what your type of guy is. Hell you could even be a hetrosexual male, I don't give a shit, I know that you know Jon is dangerously hot. In fact, he might just be the fire that makes things hot.

To cut an unnecessarily long story short, that photo is the hotness.

Standard!

Runway Divas unite...

I was so unimpressed with London Fashion Week this season that I totally forgot to mention the fact that I was modeling. I had to dust off my crown to rock the runway, bare chest and all.

I loved the collection by Komakino, if I didn't I wouldn't have agreed to model it. It's pretty Gothic, pretty dark but I love it none the less.

Check me out from 2 mins 25 seconds



Was I nervous?
Not at all
I don't got 4 years of runway experience behind me for nothing ya know.

This isn't a music blog but...

I just had to post this. In case you don't know the Teriyaki Boys are one of my favourite groups ever. Now, one of the members of this group is called Verbal. He is my complete and utter Idol. Far above Kanye west. like you wouldn't believe.

Anyway, here is their new song featuring Pharrell and Chris Brown.





It's such a runway song. To all my fashion week aficionados you'll know what I mean. It's the kind of song that says "I don't care how many inches are on those heels bitch you'd pound that runway."


P.S
In case you don't know Verbal is the one wearing the most jewellery at the beginning.

Now That's What I Call Advertising...

Here is a selection of some of my favorite fashion based television adverts.


Pacco Rabanne-1 Million
Here we see a real Glamorous man in action.




Dior-J'adore
Charlize Theron is a goddess. Stripping down with her sexy self. Yes please!!!




Chanel No.5-The Film
This was aired on U.K television during the final episode of Friends. It cost a lot of money to make. It cost a lot of money to air and I say it was worth every penny.




Dolce & Gabbana-The One for Men
I'm not really a fan of Matthew McConaughey and I don't really understand why they used him in this advert however, to quote Beyoncé "Oh it's the lights, action, Hollywood".




Oh the Glamorous life.

This is your glamorous man

I began this week in the studio with the amazing Zach Burns not as a stylist but as a model. Zach is as equally talented in front of the camera as he is behind it. Check out his wicked skills...




As an even trade I will be styling Zach for the September issue of SUPERSUPER. It will be our fashion special and what a special it will be!
