Model Spotlight :: Ryan Koning… It’s My Generation!

 

Today we found out that Ryan Koning is the cover star of the new issue of Vogue Hommes Japan and an epic editorial by Steven Klein. This comes hot on the heels of his participation in Klein’s excellent Academy editorial in the new W. Since Ryan has somehow slipped by me, I bring you here a spotlight on two of his recent shoots: above we have Ryan by Greg Vaughan (I am not positive about who shot the B&W image though) and below we have Ryan by Matthew Kristall  from Hero magazine debut issue.

 

update: I added two more pics above by Renie Saliba, who is reportedly the one who took the black & white underwear shot. Thanks to the comment below for the ID.

The Faces of Tomorrow’s Fashion Heroes

 

 

In a time where publications scaling down or shutting off has become regular news, it is refreshing to see new magazines starting up. It is even better when the magazine offers a unique twist rather than follow another mag’s formula. HERO is the name of the new bi-annual magazine, and showcasing the emerging models who are just about to hit it big is their game. It is an intimate and fresh look at the faces who are on the verge of breaking out.

 

 

HERO’s launch issue has just been released with British model Robbie Wadge (recently seen in Dazed & Confused, Vogue Hommes Japan, AnOther Man, FHM Collections, Topman SS09 ads) landing the cover in a shoot by Matthew Kristall. Top agencies including Major Models, Re:Quest, Red, Models 1, Storm, Select, and VNY are represented through 28 models in this issue. The issue features exclusive interviews and photo shoots by Jeremy Kost, Sam Scott Schiavo, Stefan Heinrichs, Carlos Vazquez, Massimo Pamparana and Matthew Kristall.

 

 

HERO is created by London-based James West and Fabien Kruszelnicki and you can buy it at their site.
