MUST SEE: VOILA! MAGAZINE HOTEL FÈNGHUÁNG

HOTEL FÈNGHUÁNG is an editorial/short film shot for Voila! magazine by Steve Marais. With the inspiration of the movie 'In the mood for love' the group of creatives descended on Gold Reef City and the Swallows Inn to make this teaser. Featuring the art direction of Colin O'Mara Davis (who just so happens to be a swell friend), styling by Jessica Lupton and make-up/hair by Stephanie Payendee and presenting Kelly and Akio from Star models. 

EL PAIS' GET OUTDOORS

Quirky and sentimental are two elements I love in a photo-shoot and this particular editorial has that and more. And who doesn't love some father-son bonding? Sergi Pons executes this beautifully for El Pais' with models Mario Sanz (who I want to look like when I grow up) and Aiden Shaw(who I want to look like now). Great styling by Migual Arnau.

EDDIE REDMAYNE FOR VOGUE

Eddie Redmayne might be making big waves in the fashion industry as a top model but did you know he's mostly an actor? The 29 year old picked up a Tony not too long ago and appeared in 'My week with Marilyn' but still manages to give good face. Here he is not long after those Burberry shots in a Vogue editorial shot in Ibiza with Karlie Kloss. No prizes in guessing Vogue used Mario Testino for these stunning images. 

THE STENMARK TWINS FOR MANUSCRIPT MAGAZINE

I really enjoyed this editorial featuring the Stenmark twins. It's colourful and quirky and doesn't take itself too seriously. Photographed by Jordan Graham for Manuscript magazine, the editorial entitled City to Surf was styled by Jolyon Mason. Wetsuits, colour blocking, crazy prints... 2012? Let's do this.

VOILA! MAGAZINE EDITORIAL FEATURING CAREL PIETER DU PREEZ

Conrad Roselt styles an editorial for local downloadable magazine Voila! featuring Carel Pieter Du Preez from Star models. The shoot consists only of Suzaan Heyns clothing which includes her leather fish-scale vest and draped jacket. The shoot was snapped by Daniels David.

NEW GIPSY FEATURING MATEUS VERDELHO

This is the model to watch. I have loved everything this man has released in his short rise to fame. The tattooed Brazilian was getting work before but now that he has white hair and a beard the work has piled in. Featuring in Posi+tive, Mateus Verdelho is shot by Milan based photographer Cristina Capucci for a spread called New Gipsy. Matteo Greco styles the chap in Boss, Armani and Corneliani among others.

1950s GREASERS AND SQUARES FOR VMAN

I love this. Often you see great editorials in woman's fashion magazines that are simple but romantic or reminiscent of an era but not always for men. Editorials like this one remind me why I used to have the James Dean hair cut and how awesome this style of dress is. For issue #24 of VMAN Simon Nessman stars with the help of Eniko Mihalik, Jakob Wiechmann, Justin Bravo, Matthew Terry, Matthew Coatsworth and Nicolas Ripolis. It was shot by Sharif Hamza, but this is only a preview for now.

COPY CAT PHOTOGRAPHY?

Mario Testino has been photographing for Burberry Prorsum campaigns for some time now so it was a surprise when I stumbled on an editorial for Japanese Uomo that was photographed by Yoshihito Sasaguchi in a variety of big labels. Tisk risk. As was the case for True Love quite recently when they featured a rather familiar spread shot from Vogue. Are we out of idea's or just not brainstorming hard enough?
