GQ (Portugal) NOV 2015: Winnie Harlow

Winnie Harlow has been hot on the scene ever since she got discovered from actively posting her pictures on Instagram. In 2015, she was honored with not just being featured in the GQ Portugal magazine in a beautiful photo spread, but she was designated as the "Role Model of the Year." Overcoming her skin condition and believing in her unique beauty has propelled her into a level of stardom that for many aspiring models is so very hard to achieve. The Canadian beauty with Jamaican ancestry poses elegantly and exudes such an inner confidence that translates so well in photos.


Becoming a successful model is not easy, so we all commend the great success that Winnie Harlow achieved then, now and for a long time into the future. The fashion industry's embrace of such beauty diversity speaks volumes about hope and promise. And, yes ... for you fashion enthusiasts, she is decked down in Christian Dior from the 2015 Fall Collection. Beautifully photographed by Branislav Šimončík and cleverly styled by Jan Králíček.

GQ (South Africa) JAN 2018: Jasmine Tookes

Jasmine Tookes (Agency: IMG Models) is the cover model for GQ South Africa's January 2018 issue! Lovely cover with brilliant accompanying editorials. Cleverly lensed by photographer Bryce Thompson and fashionably styled by Nick Nelson in lace, leather and sheer mesh.

Her career exploded after she was granted the title of Victoria's Secret Angel and adorned on the 2016 runway with the "Bright Night" Fantasy Bra. She has graced the covers of Vogue, Elle, Maxim and many other magazines. She has walked the runway of many prestigous design houses. I especially loved seeing her walk the 2016 Spring/Summer Tommy Hilfiger Runway. She has landed many advertising campaigns including Lancome Cosmetics.



Angel Jasmine Tookes is an American beauty with a lovely, fresh look combined with an alluring sultry aura. Right now, her career is sizzling hot. Can't wait to see how her modeling ventures will continue to blossom into the new year!

2013 British GQ Designer of the Year: Tom Ford


If you don't know who Tom Ford is, then you don't know much about fashion! Nor do you know much about current rap music. Rapper producer Jay Z's song simply titled "Tom Ford" gives a cool "hats off" to him in a very rare gesture. The release of this single in July 2013 to Samsung smartphone users [Source: fashion.telegraph.co.uk] coincided perfectly with Tom Ford receiving the GQ Designer of the Year Award in September 2013 for British GQ.

He had previously won GQ Designer of the Year Award in 2001 for American GQ. He has also won GQ Man of the Year Award in 2009 for German GQ. In addition, in 2000 he received the honor of being granted the award for International Man of the Year by British GQ.

Not only is he a great designer but he is quite attractive with lots of swagger. Yes, he is the epitome of GQ cool. His list of CFDA accolades is even longer than his list of GQ honors. As the ultimate recognition, the 2014 CFDA Lifetime Achievement Award was granted to Tom Ford just last month in New York City. Not sure if any honor as an American fashion designer is greater than this!

Winning the 2013 British GQ Designer of the Year Award may not be his greatest achievement to date, but it sure is the award that landed him on the cover of British GQ's OCT 2013 issue. Clearly this is his best magazine cover! I am not sure which he celebrated the most ... winning the award or landing the cover. Just fabulous! Hats of to him indeed.

GQ (UK) AUG 2012: Marisa Miller



Marisa Miller looks so hot in these GQ pics from August 2008, that GQ had to reprint them again ... exactly 4 years later! Great decision. Some photos are truly worth re-visiting.
