Man's Land
It's men's fashion week season and I wanted to take advantage of the situation to pay my particular homage to those men who walk the runways and give us so much joy, the male models.
Cheers, guys!
No, cheers to you!
NO, cheers to Lomana! Look at how she grabs him, this woman is a genius.
Besides being harassed, between one show and another they have time to play sports...
...organize their thoughts...
...invoke the devil...
...and pose, of course.
Since I have my own model, it wouldn't make sense to write this post without including him, the official model of this blog who, agreeing to be paid in kind, selflessly donates his body for the sake of entertainment science. The Consort, elementary my dear Watson.
I use him as a model constantly for two reasons: because he lets me and because he's a fashion pro, a total style icon. These days I'm badgering him to wear the coat, because he's going to freeze no matter how much he says he's not cold. I've been so insistent that he's managed to keep wearing his blazers everywhere but with some plasticky, windbreaker-like jackets underneath that look good and save him from pneumonia. As you can see, I'm always concerned that you don't get cold, so I try to give you ideas.

And the style icon thing is not an exaggeration, I tell you he has a good eye. Last summer in Tarifa he got really into wearing long underwear...
A hobby I quickly shared
And what do I find at the latest Dolce&Gabbana show? Dozens of long underwear everywhere! If they become fashionable, I'll die laughing. And they will, because if the Italians say it, it's gospel. How nice, if they look like the ones in the photo, they have my support.
And it's because when we talk about male models, without a doubt our friends Domenico and Stefano are the ones who know best, no decaffeinated, ambiguous, or anorexic types, no, just real men through and through. From here, with much feeling, Domenico, Stefano... GRAZIE, Grazie Mile!
A thousand hugs,
