The last ten years of British Vogue covers analyzed by Arthur Buxton. I think you can safely say that’s lot’s of skin you’re seeing.
Cop those George Condo shirts (the album of art of my dark…) from Karma Loop.

Still on the dusty, hand drawn, anchors ahoy tip, which is fine because like Caleb & Co, he’s doing it well, and with his own personal style injected.
You’ve noticed anchors have been huge over the past 12 months right? What’s that about? Didn’t thye used to be a (literally) gay tattoo at some point?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Photoshop transparent background printed before. It’s visually striking because it’s something you’re not meant to see, like the cs toolbar or ingredients for a sausage roll. It’s also cool for me because I use Photoshop. 95% of the world doesn’t (is that right?), so maybe it doesn’t work.
Then there’s this non functioning 3D thing happening. 3D has arrived, and is now lurking around without much purpose. This is all style, and looks alright mainly because the figures are cut out, and they pop, if this photo had a background it would look more of a mess.
Finally: the stacked mountain collage. How many more mountain collages can be pulled off with a serious face?

Props to my cousin Alex in New York, scored a N. Hollywood gig for Fashion week, straight off the street. Too bad he can only turn left. Full slideshow at GQ.COM
