The Many Men of Nicola Formichetti

While I’d love to believe that Nicola Formichetti exists solely to do Lady Gaga‘s fashion bidding, that simply isn’t the case. Jo Calderone might actually be the most reserved man Formichetti has styled to date. Boy is at werq in Japan turning out cover after editorial of monstrous male beauty for Vogue Hommes Japan. He’s also been killing it in Dazed & Confused and V Man. Take a look.

This Is What Every Men’s Magazine Cover Should Be

A striking, emaciated Asian hunching in a drop-crotch pant and opera glove. Daisuke Ueda covers Vogue Hommes Japan‘s “Eastern Promise” issue – out March 10th – shot by Steven Klein and styled by Nicola Formichetti — prompting me to ask, who else is excited for the Mugler show today?! If not, here’s a potential reason to get your shit together: Lady Gaga is not only the show’s musical director but is also making her runway debut as a model and previewing her new song, “Government Hooker.”

Okay, so: A.) It’s great that Gags and Formichetti have helped each other basically take over the world. B.) This is an example of some amazing marketing. And C.) Dead.

Formichetti’s Formidable Year

Nicola Formichetti was busy in 2010 keeping Gaga in meat gowns and machine gun bustiers. Along the way he even managed to style a few editorial spreads and ad campaigns. No doubt he was one of the driving creative forces for the past 12 months, but what were his favorite moments?

SPREAD UM: Dashing Dudes

Nicola Formichetti brings his impeccable styling to Vogue Hommes Japan with a dark and brooding editorial that would not be out of place in Gaga’s “Alejandro” video.

Lensed by Mariano Vivanco, Christopher Landon looks especially dashing striking a pose in a voluminous cape, hat at a dramatic angle.

Check out the rest of the spread after the jump.

The entire spread has Formichetti’s distinct touch while proving yet again that he is among the most talented and exciting stylists working today.

CELEBULITE: Lady Gaga Likes it Raw

Yes, it’s been done before, but a raw meat bikini has never looked this good. Lady Gaga poses on the cover of Vogue Hommes Japan wearing nothing but red lipstick and pieces of delicious steak. I love a sexy cover that will piss-off PETA!

SPREAD UM: Vogue Hommes Japan, Spring 2009

Need we any more proof that Hedi Slimane is a god? Leaving black and white portraits behind, Slimane shot a simple and somewhat whimsical spread for Vogue Hommes Japan, representing American culture at its finest. Hollywood, ice hockey, hippies and the grand old American flag brought the USA on a transatlantic journey to the Japanese glossy!
