from Dorian Magazine

From the pages of Dorian comes this story, shot by Enokae--Heretic. What we find is the use of intense accessories (I'm even enjoying the bowl-cut): necklace--silver and mesh, by Fannie Schiavoni; headpiece by Jaiden rva James. Both fantastic. See more of the shoot HERE on YVY.

Kenzie Roth by Timothy Rosado

Enjoying this jacket--cut just at the waist with double-sided zipped pockets--great look. See more of this shoot featuring model Kenzie Roth shot by Timothy Rosado HERE on YVY.

Vizeau Sportswear

From Vizeau comes a black and tight sportwear look. But what I enjoy most is what I think is a interesting combo of pairing the skin tight sportswear with boots. See more from the Vizeau Pre-Fall 2011 collection HERE on YVY. Photo by Michael Ching

Margiela Pants by Richard Pier Petit

Richard Pier Petit shot Justin Gaston in these great pants by Martin Margiela with a light print/texture to them. See more of the shoot HERE on RPP's site. Just a note on Margiela's site: it has an old school, early internet aesthetic (purposely, of course) so don't be thrown.

Undergear-Summer 2011

I'm enjoying the slight slit on the thigh of these underwear from Undergear's Summer 2011 lookbook. Something different--bit of a spartan feel with the slit--yet still with the support you need. See more pieces from the lookbook HERE on YVY.

Max by Rokas Rach and Liam Warwick

Model, Max Cocking is photographed here by Rokas Rach and Liam Warwick, originally done for Shalom&Shwmae blog HERE back in June.  Max was styled by Adam Chan, and I am enjoying the use of the copper band/belt--just like something you might find in the plumbing aisle at the hardware shop, but with notches and some other fine details. It's a very interesting piece. See more at YVY HERE.

Edu Garcia--Photographer

The two top looks are from a shoot by Edu Garcia. I'm enjoying the outdoor setting but also think that the shot with red is reminiscent of a pose/shot from the late 80's early 90's--but, of course, with a female supermodel instead of the present day, masculine counterpart. Regardless, the color and movement in the shot are great. I'm also enjoying the jacket used in another shoot by Garcia, with its black, viynl-like (almost tape like) accents. See more of the work by Edu Garcia HERE on his site.

Tyson Ballou by Alexi Lubomirski for GQ-Japan

Alexi Lubomirski shot this story of nature and isolation featuring Tyson Ballou for GQ Japan. I'm loving the idea of wondering around the cabin grounds--river, lake, forest--in my long-johns and un-laced boots. See more of the story HERE on YVY.

Janice Fronimakis by Renie Saliba

Renie Saliba shot model Janice Fronimakis showing this suit. I'm enjoying the arms/shoulders being blocked a different color. It reminds me of Raf and/or Jil S--it's like a pieced together thrifty version of that look. Yet, for all I know, this could be a damn expensive suit. See more HERE on YVY
