post a commentI think I love you.
omg! I am totally in love with this pictures.
Well THAT woke me up. Gorgeous man, gorgeous jackets. I think I'm liking Chanel's menswear line better than the women's these days.
*swoonsss*
Love the last picture. Beautiful!
The top photo- pearls?! We've seen fishnets and high heels but my vote goes to pearls for men, especially those pearls with that jacket. I think it looks great, and the double strand worn singly is inspired (I think that's what is is, anyway the repeated variation in size is important). It might not work for everyone but it's still inspiring to see it done.
Flawless, timeless. It is now obvious I love Chane for men more than the women's line(s).
beautiful b&w photography.
v from brooklyn
Modern and stylish. I would not wear a pearl necklace but it looks good on him. And I love the jacket in the botton pic...
whoa...tribute to slimane?
I want everything especially those shoes. Wonderful styling.
He is gorgeous...
I agree with Maria...I think I am in love.
Love.. I'm going out to Chanel right now!
So beautiful. Gah.
love you & love Chanel!
love you & love Chanel!
Is he wearing Chanel in every pic? If so, I´m not very much impressed. The one, where the pants are tucked in the boots, looks funny. The guy is handsome though.
oooh!!!
...how about "gorgeous man"?!
love!
and I think I love this man...
SO HOT.
wow. you even shoot well in a more conventional setting! - congrats.
The first and third photos show designs that don't really offer a very masculine silhouette, do they?
Not well cut clothes. top two jackets are cut for a woman, just not attractive clothing.
These pictures are classics. Love the atmosphere they resonate. Nice one!
The femininity of the jacket on the first picture is oddly striking.
In love with jacket nr. 2!
I miss Heath Ledger
I'm jealous.
who is he?
I love first pictures... the jacket IS Chanel
Love that last shot!
the overcoat in the third phoro oversized (david byrne big) and lacking sartorial touches, terrible imo. the sportcoat in the last photo is divine, the close positioning of the buttons is wonderful and the cut well sculptured. erratic overall. they could could do better editing.
Even Becks can't pull off pearls and a woman's jacket. If this is meant to be one of those FABULOUS looks that my gay brotha's like to rock, then rock on, but if some dude picked me up for a date in this.... I'd assume it was his way of telling me that this isn't really a "date" date.
As for the other shots, the pictures are good the clothes are fine. I particularly dig the last shot. I'm a big fan of the scarf peaking out casually at the bottom like this and I find the jacket - the cut, the somewhat 70's lapels and fabric - flattering.
As for the guy.... yeah, he's cute - but of course - he's a model.
It's Brad Kroenig, he's been modeling for years and has modeled in the Chanel shows for years.
Maybe there's something wrong with me or I just don't get the picture, but, sorry, I think this guy looks utterly ridiculous.
Bonjour,
Je t'aime, who is this? J'adore Noir Et blanc Photographie. Who notices the clothes when a man looks like this? Great images.
Merci, Zoé
Hmmm,
what do I think? My impression is, the fitting of the jacket in the top pic -I mean the sleeves- is terrible. Obviously it´s cut like that on purpose, but it looks awkward to me.
And the pearls, well I have nothing against feminin men, but I wouldn´t take a guy for serious if he came to me with this necklace, hahahahaaaaaa.
He looks like he´d spontaneously parody old Coco...
sorry, but no for me. I am narrow-minded at this.
Looks like Brad Koenig to me. He's pretty high up there in terms of male models. I'm from Canada, so I'm used to seeing him in Le Chateau ads everywhere.
The jacket on the third and the last frame are amazing. I don't know how I feel about the pearls... it doesn't do anything for me.
What a beautiufl man....
While the clothes in these shots are certainly stunning, as is the model, they feel more big-budget-print-ad than the great-clothes-on-real-people shots we all know and love you for, Sart. My daughter dressed as Coco Chanel for Halloween! She would have freaked out to have the shopping bag for her candy. (I sewed her a little suit, and yes, I matched the plaid. Go mom.)
He looks AMAZING. His look; he's jaws; hair everything! You've captured it all VERY well! Great job! It's stunning!
In a perfect world : a man & Chanel (sigh) .... to good to be true ...
Nice threads, but the sleeve length is terrible for the model.
i think its very femenine, they should make more a masculine style. not very iconic like chanel women.
the styling is spot on.
and the photography is brilliant. perfect!! :)
I really love the 2nd and 4th shots the jackets are cut beautifully. The first one I like the jacket but the pearls looked a bit too feminine, as far as the third jacket I thought it was too oversized not enough shape in the body.
I love this; his styled hair, clothes, etc.
But what I love more is how you capturted in it B/W in front of Chanel. Result? Classic.
Hey Sart. What's up with the male-femaler crossover?
The ads look amazing, but I'm not sure how I'd feel about walking into a man in real life with Outfit #1 on.
an exclusively Chanel shoot?
BOOOOOOO!!!!!
not the reason why I love this site
more real people please
A good looking guy; he might wear a shopping bag and look good anyway. His actual styling is not worth mentioning.
ah...I've got this issue of fantastic man...
awesome stuff!!!
Did u take the pictures? I never checked the credits on that page....will go check
Love the coat (the guy is kinda hot too:-))
oh,j'adore.
He looks amazing. Love the pearls in the very first picture. A handsome man in Chanel, what else does one need?
oh get over it. no, it does not offer"a traditional "masculine" sillohoutte. A couple hundred years ago men wore stockings and waistcoats and wigs. Then, THAT was masculine. Plenty of men have worn and still do in the eastern world (not just scotland)skirts. There is a French group called Hommes en Jupes which is dedicated to rasing awareness to the point where men can reclaim the skirt as a socially accepted garment for men - and not just gay men, "Joe the Plumbers", if you will. And monique, what if a guy picked you up on a date but checked out because you were wearing jeans, or some other kind of pants? It hasn't been all that long that women wearing pants was acceptable. This might give you some idea of how constructed societies ideas of femininity and masculinity are. A shakeup is welcome, in my opinion. This is all stuff you probably already know, but I think men wearing more traditionally "feminine" items (and vice versa) is thought provoking, interesting and important. Sorry to sound like a gender nazi.
On topic, i like the photos but i prefer your colour pics better that are more real people-y and less magazine-y.
You inspire me.
Forget Chanel. I want the man in the Chanel!
that first photo just cracks me up. i don't care who he is or what he's wearing, he looks ridiculous. i can't believe that many people fell for this. the other outfits and photographs, are, on the other hand, gorgeous.
i think the pearls over the jacket is a little OTT but i wouldnt mind if they peeked out from underneath; say, in a variation of outfit in last photo. i'm all for boundary-pushing accessorising!
Love Chanel.
credit question? stylist for this shot?
love the first picture and the boots on the third.
i do love chanel, but this is just too posed. it's certainly not the rakish italian man look. is that so bad? you decide.
these b&ws are great.
Well, anon 7:14 we're living in odd times, indeed. I can understand if I guy picked me up and was not into my jeans.... but they are considered unisex in this society and a Chanel jacket and pearls are considered totally female (no wiggle room there). So , I hear you.
As a matter of fact I'm a girl who likes to wear men-styled clothes but I don't like men in women-styled clothes. I admit to my prejudices.... and I'm okay with them. Give me a manly man.
As for men who like to cross dress (which is what this is to me), I love them too....but I assume they're gay.... and that's okay with me. If you honestly think any straight man would dress like this then.... I'd like to sit down and have a conversation with said "straight guy".... I can help him come out of the closet.
That first jacket? TO DIE.
Those black and white pictures are very beautiful!
yes! i love this
Black & White has done the job well.
I loathe that necklace and I think those trousers should be pulled out of those boots immediately.
Adore the last photo though. He looks gorgeous.
What is the idea of wearing a winter coat without a shirt underneath ?
I guess I'm the only woman who got breathless with the first pic. If I man were to pick me up in pearls, I would get married to him. It looks beautiful and it takes some guts and some style to pull out a look like that, and it only works for masculine-looking models, like this (HAWT) guy. I don't like the "men in heels" thing, I think they look just ridiculous, they don't have the body structure required to wear them (in fact, even some women don't), but his... oh man, this is a usually feminine accessory I really would like to see more in real men, 'cause I don't think it takes away any of the masculinity... Indeed, if you are man enough to wear pearls, you are man enough to anything.
About the looks... gorgeous silhouettes, except for the third jacket, it looks way to big and to boxy for him. I'm in love with Chanel menswear. And womenswear. Oh, I'm a Chanel fangirl, I admit u.u
And, just to make my idea stronger: What a gorgeous looking guy, maaan.
P.S Are those platform booties he is wearing in the third picture? His feet look so small and I don´t think that it is masculine at all.
the kind of looks i superly love.
photos look a little staged Sart, is this an ad campaign?
I made it clear that I shot this for Fantastic Man magazine
Love the ad campaign. The model looks like Joel McMillan. He is HOT! The women in my office melted when he came in for a go-see. Nice guy.
The personal silouhette of Lagerfeld is very apparent in Picture #1, as is the model's pose (Lagerfeld-esque). I'm supposing you all channeled (chaneled? ha!) that on purpose? Nice work.
yet another thing to lust for.
I want them all for they are so classic and chic
the first is my favorite
maybe this is a stupid question, but where is this shot? my guess would be nyc, but i didn't know if it was something you might have done during your stay in russia.
Poor Sart, people complaining about what you choose to post on your OWN BLOG. The hazard of leaving it open to comments.
The styling (except for #4) does nothing for me, but the photos are exceptional, as always. What a great assignment!
Yes, I'm pretty sure that is Brad Kroenig. He's one of Ford's top models. I'd be amazed if it isn't.
OK - where to begin?????
Scott, the pictures are beautiful. Really solid, masculine & dramatic - I love them. I also understand that they were shot for F.M. and so they are flavoured in a specific way. My problem lies with the clothes themselves. Why take something so feminine and try to make it masculine? It looses the message and the appeal. It's like trying to guild the lily in motor oil! I have tried to balance this in my mind, knowing that Coco played with the gender balance with her clothes in the 20's & 30's, but the reverse is a slightly more jagged pill for me to swallow.
he's a keeper.
I didn´t know Chanel made menswear ?
Are these pictures a way for them to test the waters ?
what i'm trying to say is that jeans are considered unisex NOW. but they weren't always.
i don't know if i would think that guy was gay or not, from the photos, i wouldn't automatically assume he was. but i might assume he was a bit pretentious. i have my prejudices also >_<
What would Mlle Coco have thought about this guy in pearls? Monique, cannot agree with you more.
stunning man and lovely jackets...the photos Scott are fabulous, among my favourites..seriously, well done!
X
Too obvious.
You did those shots? I hadn't noticed that. And I pay very close attention to that magazine. Anyone else here think that magazine is one of the most radical publications in years? Well, it is. Although I think it's a shame it's gone thick and perfect bound this issue. The stitched bind was much more exciting.
Nice job anyways, your photos are getting better and better. And they were pretty damn good to start with.
hey guys you are totally right that the femininity may seem a bit too much in this photo shoot but isn't fashion phoyography an art after all?and it's supposed to exaggerate trends because if it has a totally wearable look&feel it would not be an art but a 'catalogue-type-photo-shooting', you've done brilliant job Sart!
The main reason why i love your work is because you love your work and you do it with alot of passion. I am a photographer aswel and I always find your work to have an embeded identy plate on, and thats not because there is anything on the picture but its how the picture talks to you when you look at it!!
Im glad Chanel exposed your skill!
Chanel doing menswear is like Gymboree doing Big & Tall.
whre did u find him?? wow!!! waiting to find him in some near place...ehehhe
A beautiful man, and beautiful photos. But...
1)Pearls are gorgeous and trends change, yes. Slowly. Straight men are just not ready for Granny's pearl necklace yet, sorry. How about some dark opaque stones like jasper or tiger's eye instead, if you need the bling? And I'm all for interesting fabrics and new shapes, but frayed, nappy fabrics cut way too big just look like cheap things homeless men dig out of dumpsters. With the current economic woes, is hobo-wear really fashion, or just mockery?
2) That jacket shape give him a bustline. Surely not what most men want.
3)Pull your pants out of your boots, pretty hobo. You look foolish.
4)Wow. Stylish, well-tailored and masculine. See? It can be done.
that doorman is the nicest. he says hello whenever i pass, and i never even go into the store.
hey this look like my model friend!!! is this in Ny??!??!?
Where the hell did this man come from?!?!?!
I thought men like him only existed in magaize spreads, and runway shows.
This man is the epitome of masculinity and sexiness. He is what us men hate, and wish we were more like. And by the comments of the women, it seems like their every dream as well.
This man knows how to dress!! The textures, the fit of the clothes, the dark sexy mistery...
Everyone seems fixated on the pearls. I'm curious as to people's reactions to the Chanel camelia stuck in the model's buttonhole in the second picture. I think it's rather smart. It might be amusing to fix a grey flannel or black leather camelia into my suit lapel. It would certainly start tongues wagging here in Indianpolis, but it would last longer than a real flower. Thoughts or comments ?
He is RIDICULOUSLY handsome
yay to pearls and camellias and other so-called "fem" affectations. a masculine man can pull it off. i especially love that the pearls are worn in a "shape" that men don't usually wear jewelry.
i'm not familiar with Chanel for Men (this Sart blog is introducing me to a lot of men's fashion) but i think i have a new fantasy... affording Chanel!
Sorry not really diggen the look. It's a bit dated I think. A little G.A. early 1990's. Maybe it will grow on me but really can't see myself in it.
oh yes...CHANEL!
A.I.Lastar
I'd lose the necklace and pull the pants out of the boots. Otherwise, I like these looks. The long sleeves would probably drive me crazy but I love all of these clothes. Jacket (#2 pic) pattern/texture is sweet. Close buttons in the last jacket are a fresh change from the usual.
Love the photography.. don't really dig the clothing...
The model made the clothes look decent, but not for the average joe. Photo 1 and 2 i dont get. something about the length perhaps. the 3rd.. no inner shirt makes me uncomfortable. the last one is quite traditional so, nothing much to say.
I like only the last shot, Brad looks ridicilous in others.
Beautiful, chic clothes that will transcend time.
think this set of pictures are great. really leave a good impression bout chanel, appreciate the not wearable comments but still think i'd give the pearl look a go, only if i can find the chanel ones though.
are the pearls taken from the female range?
chanel pour homme.. I was soooo-dumb i didn't know it existed!
I do...
Love that last shot - Beautiful!
all about style !!
Great picture, just full of style
Wow.
Beautiful man + beautiful shot.
You always leave me stunned, Sartorialist.
-t.blue
The last picture is completely stunning. He is incredibly handsome with a classic and refined style. My dream man. :)
