One of our constant readers pointed us to the new Bikkembergs print ad, and we’ve been on the lookout since then. The gorgeous visuals just surfaced on the Flemish designer’s website, and they were definitely worth the long wait.
With only two items — one stretch trunk, one stretch brief — ‘Dirk Bikkembergs Golden Underwear’ is a minimalist but efficient collection. The campaign was shot last summer in the barren landscape of Karoo in South Africa, with no less than 11 models — matching the 11 players in a soccer team, Bikkembergs’ favorite sport.
London-based photographer Andrea Vecchiato loves the Framptons — all three of them. He started photographing brothers Roger, David and Joel a while ago. And he never quite stopped.
Andrea just sent us some exclusive previews of a shooting he just did with David, now 31 and signed with Model 1 in London. And since we really want you to feast your retinas on this beauty, we added to the gallery a photo-ed that Andrea and David did for Fantasticsmag back in 2007.
The 18-year-old from Acireale — a seaport city in the north-east of the province of Catania, Sicily (Italy) — is a typical Sicilian boy with very dark eyes and hair, a perfect tan and a passion for football. “He likes to pose and I’m very happy to work with him because he has a natural addiction to stay in front of the camera,” Alberto told us. Andrea just finished high school and currently works for a car insurance company, doing office work.
