Fashion Milano–The boys of Fashion Milano are out on parade and ready for Milan Fashion Week, which kicks off in under a month. Boasting a crop of fast rising recognizable faces, the agency is set for fashion week with heavy hitters such as James Smith and Linus Gustin leading the pack. In addition to young desirables Timmi Radicke and Taras Koltun, Fashion Milano packs a runway-ready punch with the luxe-prone appearances of casting favorites that include Johnny George, Jeremy Young and Jonatan Frenk.

Nathalie–The runway beckons as the agencies prepare their show packages for the fall/winter 2012 season. Gearing up for Paris Fashion Week next month, Nathalie is out the gates with a geometric-infused presentation of their leading men. Boasting red-hot twins Jordan and Zac Stenmark amongst their ranks, Nathalie houses runway gold when it comes to well-versed models such as Tomek Szczukiecki and Douglas Neitzke. From rising blue-chip star Benjamin Eidem to honorary Hilfiger family member Francis Lane, Nathalie gears up for a distinguished season on the catwalk.

Welcome Winter–Known for their picturesque editorials, the January edition of GQ UK delivers another stunning feat with Colin Dack and James Hampson taking to the outdoors for a rugged shoot, styled by fashion editor, Jo Levin. Photographed by Lee Strickland and groomed by Peter Smith, the pair are clad in garments from labels that include James Lock & Co., Fred Perry and other British standbys.

The Wedding Crashers–Photographed by Dan Burn-Forti for July’s edition of Esquire UK, James Hampson gets a date and crashes the royal wedding. Caught among the growing crowd of onlookers, James shows off his new duds courtesy of stylist Catherine Hayward.

The Moncler Dual Off–The battle between classic European menswear and the athletic performance vision of Thom Browne continued at Moncler Gamme Bleu. This season’s sport of choice was fencing for the suit-centric designer – though, not far of a departure from the American designer’s aesthetic. Padded jackets, quilted blazers and sporty fabrications were all in the favor of Browne’s design regime. House signatures such as thigh high shorts, tailored suiting and eccentric trousers were infused with new favorites in the forms of fencing jackets, pleated skirt overlay and enhanced jock cups. It was a triumphant pairing of modern and traditional menswear with a dash of heritage and humor.

Nathalie–As spring 2011 nears to a close, Milan and Paris’ agencies prepare for the next season. Getting their models in order, Nathalie has the honor of being the first to debut their show package for the spring/summer 2012 season in Paris. Playing agency to models that include new Dolce & Gabbana leading man Daisuke Ueda and proven stars such as Tomek Szczukiecki to Philipp Bierbaum, Nathalie rounds out a stunning roster with runway regulars like Robbie Wadge and Berthold Rothas, with a couple of notable fresh contenders such as Russell Giardina.

James Hampson was discovered at the Reading Festival in London. In his first season, he walked for Lanvin, Prada and quickly became a runway regular. This young Brit has appeared in editorials for VMAN, An0ther Man, GQ and Velvet. James starred in Topman’s Spring/Summer 2009 campaign and became the face of Paul Smith Eyewear for Spring/Summer 2010.
