MALE MODEL HUMPDAY: Dude, I Wanna Gay Marry You

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Flaunt Magazine just came out — badoom-ching! — with an editorial celebrating gay marriage, appropriately-titled “Some Dudes Marry Dudes,” starring Brian Shimansky and perennial favorite Chad White. Styled by Long Ngyuen and lensed by Ruvan Wijesooriya, the spread calls to mind another dudes-gettin’-hitched story by Out Magazine from 2010. In Matthias Vriens-McGrath‘s “Viva Las Vegas,” Jason Morgan and Mark Ricketson paint Sin City red in bachelor finery courtesy of Grant Woolhead. This Male Model Humpday, we’re in a matrimonial mood so allow us to pop one question  in particular — which couple takes the wedding cake?

In New York it is literally the hottest day in the history of the world. Or at least it feels like it. So with temperatures nearing 100, why not cool down with a little dip?

Gwen Stefani is her Glam Rock Self for Elle UK

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Elle UK wanted to know how Gwen Stefani does is all – wife, mother, fashion designer and musical diva. So they asked longtime friend Shirley Manson to find out for the April 2011 issue. Photographed for the spread and cover by Matthias Vriens-McGrath, Gwen rocks glamorous garb from Prada, Yves St. Laurent and Louis Vuitton with her quintessential edgy take. All of the pieces look amazing on her and fit like they’re custom-made; stylist Andrea Lieberman certainly came to work that day. Though tamer than some of her past spreads, Gwen shines in these simple and elegant photos.

Spring Romance on a Cloudy Day With Vanessa Hegelmaier

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

You don’t have to let this dreary, overcast day get you down. Look at Vanessa Hegelmaier in the April 2011 issue of Elle UK – she is a vision of countryside grace in this spread “Take Me With You.” It doesn’t hurt when you’re wearing flowing spring pieces from Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Alberta Ferretti and more, styled by the talented Anne-Marie Curtis. Photographer Matthias Vriens-McGrath leads us through the spread in both elegant color and dreamy black and white. What is your favorite look from the spread?

The Big Gang Bang Theory (NSFW)

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

In Daron Aronofsky‘s Requiem for a Dream, Jennifer Connelly is forced to fellate a room full of men to feed her dirty drug habit. Photographer Matthias Vriens-McGrath captures the mood of that scene, only with hot male models and androgynous model Ana Catharina playing Connelly’s part. Suddenly, sex for drugs doesn’t seem so bad an idea.

Behati Prinsloo goes for the thigh high boot trend (that I absolutely love for fall) in the October issue of Flair Magazine.  Matthaias Vriens-McGrath shot this “Santa Monica, CA” spread, but I really want to give props to the stylist, Sally Lyndley, because the wardrobe in this spread is absolutely amazing.

SPREAD UM: “Santa Monica, CA” Behati Prinsloo for Flair

Edited by Monique Montagnese, Contributor

This spread gives you a good look at the Prada over the knee wellies (out of the water!) and plenty of other thigh high boots – pretty unexpected on the beach. The tousled hair and bulky sweaters are more fitting, especially on breezy beach nights, my personal favorite time to visit. This laid back spread was shot by Matthias Vriens-McGrath.

MAG HAG: Winona Ryder for ELLE UK, July 2009

Edited by Andy Wass

What year is it? Winona Ryder appears to be attempting a comeback, and has landed the July 2009 issue of ELLE UK.

Matthias Vriens McGrath photographed her in a D&G corset and black nails.  The cover is bright, pretty straight-forwardly Spring, and Winona is still looking good!  Can’t wait to see how they styled her editorial.
