Indulging the Season–Stylists David Vivirido and Miguel Arnau join forces for a collections story in the latest issue of Hercules. Enlisting an eclectic lot of boys that include Alexandre Cunha, Antonio Navas, Jamie Wise, Jordan Stenmark, Matt Woodhouse, Matthew Terry, Patrick Kafka, Peter Lissidini, Ryan Barrett, Simone Nobili, Timmi Radicke, Vladimir Ivanov and Zac Stenmark, styles from Versace, Givenchy and more are captured by the lens of Hercules regular Giampaolo Sgura.

Vladimir in Earnest–Ford Europe model Vladimir Ivanov pencils in a campaign photo shoot for Ermanno by Ermanno Scervino spring/summer 2012 as he dons a casual set of garbs including a velvet jacket, patterned shirt and fitted bermuda shorts for a somber shoot in the sun.

Denim Madness–Wilhelmina model Vladimir Ivanov strikes again with his latest role in Calvin Klein’s spring Indigos 2012 lookbook. Garbed in casual wear including striped polos, tye-dye shirts, silk dress shirts and those classic CK denim jeans, Vladimir achieves an ethereal appearance as his equally immaculate shadow is cast behind him.

Wilhelmina–Mastering the art of the perfectly maintained men’s board, Wilhelmina lends New York Fashion Week undeniable stars such as Clement Chabernaud and Jon Kortajarena. Treasured amongst the ranks are familiar faces James Smith, Taylor Fuchs and Matthew Hitt as well as countless others. In the new faces department, Wilhelmina charms no doubt with this season’s Givenchy star, Chris Moore and striking up and comers like Taylor Cowan. Rounding out their lineup with welcomed models such as Vladimir Ivanov and Reid Prebenda, Wilhelmina solidifies a phenomenal track record in the stars department.


Regal Formation–Dolce & Gabbana follows a path lined with luxe fabrications and rich accents for the fall/winter 2012 season. A mix of country romance and early turn of the century dapper sentiments, the Italian house finds a place for their D&G youth amongst a mature collection of standout pieces. Dressing up suit jackets, lapels cut out of velvet mark the season, while the gradual incorporation of gold embroidery reinforces fall’s grand theme. Overlooking no facet in the life of their debonair man, the lineup transitions from sharp outerwear and companion pieces of warm wool to a more relaxed gesture that sees Dolce & Gabbana turn to their infamous silk. Whether worn as an exquisite set of pajamas or a bold move outdoors, the regal execution is the perfect touch to a collection that spares no expense.

Vladimir Ivanov is best known for his appearance in CK Jean’s controversial spring 2009 campaign, shot by Steven Meisel. He has walked for Z Zegna, Bottega Veneta, D&G, DSquared2, Frankie Morello and Trussardi, just to name a few labels. Vladimir has also starred as the face of many labels including Frankie Morello, Trussardi, D&G, Lacoste, Gant, Victorinox and Zegna Sports. Born in Russia, his brother is fellow model, Andrey Ivanov.
