NOTE: I am not one to get star-struck easily. Last night was a major exception.

Barneys CO-OP’s new mailer, one of “The Books” for Fall 2009 is now available on The Fashionisto. Appearances include Marc Jacobs, Filson, Surface To Air, and A.P.C. and starring William Eustace, Tyler Riggs, Lenz von Johnston and Jethro Cave.

I love photo shoots like this. The girls looks gorgeous and the guys look tough, it’s perfect. I love how they kept that edgy look but used significantly dressy clothes.

While the industry is dominated by doll-faced, lanky females, male models with more classic looks tend to be the most successful. In the midst of a recession, agencies have had to renew older contracts to save money, thusly narrowing the types of men represented. The Cole Mohrs and Ash Stymests, although trendy “image guys,” tend to fall once they’ve been used and seen enough. In addition, those who have been branded to a fragrance campaign tend to endure a low profile in the industry since such campaigns are so publicly widespread.

I’ll admit, it is a bit disheartening to see some of my favorites so low, or even nonexistent, on the list, but based on magazine covers and spreads, advertising campaigns, contracts and runway shows over the past two years, here is Forbes’ most successful male models:

1. SEAN O’PRY

2. MATT GORDON

3. DAVID GANDY

4. DANNY SCHWARTZ

5. GARRETT NEFF

6. OLLIE EDWARDS

7. TYLER RIGGS

8. JON KORTAJARENA

9. TAYLOR FUCHS

10. COLE MOHR

Makeup artist Tyron Machhausen created a cool Ziggy Stardust look for this shoot, with all of that paint and glitter. I love the gender-bending looks, and think Nagi Saki retains the guy’s masculinity throughout.  I think this shoot is so cool, and would love to see the whole spread in Tush.

Lyle Lodwick in all his hipness. I like this, I like hipsters and their ironic photos playing xylophones, smoking cigarettes, and wearing weird sunglasses, but that’s just me.  Check out the rest of the spread at the Contributing Editor.

I was flipping through old issues of i-D, Dazed and Confused and Men’s Vogue while I was home in Buffalo over the holiday weekend. I knew I spotted a trend among male models, but it didn’t hit me until I saw Cole Mohr on the Marc by Marc Jacobs billboard in SoHo one last time…

The Trend: baby-faced, skinny, tattooed, pierced, punk rocking models who look like they just got kicked out of the high school homecoming dance for reeking of cheap beer. Bingo. 

Punk boys have been all over the editorials and up and down the runways recently. I absolutely love the awkward, but adorable, high school dropout look…and It looks like I’m not the only one! With Marc Jacobs and Hedi Slimane as avid fans of this look, it seems that the baby-faced punks will be scoring high fashion editorials and shows for years to come. But sorry ladies, just because you look like a prepubescent rocker doesn’t mean your gauged ears and inked arms are fully acceptable in the high fashion industry. It’s unfair, I know…but that’s just the way it is. 

Thanks for the photos Models.com!
