Jop and Gert, Fantastic Man's founders. By Paul Bellaart
Fantastic Man’s 9th issue with author Brett Easton Ellis on the cover is just out. Ironically it’s one of the least gay men’s fashion mags there is. Ironic because it’s put together by Dutch guys Gert Jonkers and Jop Bennekom, the founders of Butt the most fashionable fag mag ever. You should read Fantastic Man because it relies less on boring rich people stuff than massively in-depth interviews with the sort of guys worth looking up to: Writers, artists, publishers, the Mayor of Berlin, or the slightly mad sociology professor who edits Italian Rolling Stone.

I’ve always had a thing for all things retro and I’m particularly stuck in the 30s to 50s when it comes to clothes. With winter still on full blast I have no choice other than to swap my high-heeled pumps for some flat lace-ups which i wear with a pair of thick tights and a coat that just about covers my knees. Complete with a beret, I look like an awful lot like the grannies you see strolling through cemeteries.

Actually, the title should be “Kat and Sonia attempt an American Apparel ad because they got way too drunk on cheap bubbly and the only thing they could come up with before going out in Paris was to throw on a body suit and sweater from American Apparel and take photos lying on the kitchen floor”. That didn’t have quite the same ring to it though. Anyway, see below for the rest of the pictures.
PS: This is also an introductory post to let you know that I’ve been forced to go to Paris for men’s fashion week, where I will be practicing my paparazzi skills when taking pictures at fashion parties that ban cameras, attempting to catch the Olsen twins making out with each other and trying out the champagne and vodka diet for four days straight. Should be fun. Check in for updates. Read more »

Let’s face it, ladies, you can deny it all you want but when you go out you wouldn’t like to be mistaken for a frigid choir girl. Deep down inside you long to be that hot bitch that brings all the boys to the yard, although you would never risk compromising the image of the smart, sophisticated lady you are (or want to be, anyway). So what do you do? You dress sexy. Actually, you call it sexy, I call it slutty. Because, let’s be honest, that non-existent mini skirt and that see-through top you’re wearing are internationally popular hooker-wear. But you don’t have to work the streets to work the look. Let’s learn from a few ladies who manage to look slutty without looking cheap.

After years and years of always wearing the same makeup (red lipstick and black eyeliner), I recently discovered the fun of serious face-painting. I’m talking pink eye shadow, blue glitter, black lips, fake lashes, the whole shebang. A lot of my friends often spend several hours creating new and interesting makeup for the night and now I’ve caught the bug. It’s a great way to erase that feeling of “not so hot” and turn it into “uh huh uh huh”.
Here’s some inspiration in case you want to give it a go next time you’re going to hit the nightclubs.
