Baptiste Giabiconi

^ Same here, I wish they had a men's collection! Any way yes, Jon walked for the Chanel Fall 2008 show, and I think that may have been the only time... it was actually only a matter of months after that when Baptiste walked for Chanel for the first time at the Pre-Fall 2009 show. And he hasn't missed a show since!

 

[Boomer]

^ Yup! Baptiste is the man...Sebastien couldn't care less one way or the other, I would guess, Jake is second string and Brad seems to be semi-retired these days...Baptiste is the franchise!

Men's fashion week will become even more exciting with Chanel Homme show B)

 

[Boomer]

^ Wouldn't that be amazing!!? I have read that people seem to identify Chanel with a very feminine attitude, but I really doubt that...I think Karl could blow the roof off with a menswear collection- waiting list after two days!! B)

 

[Flashbang]

^Definitely!

nice pic. I really like him

 

[tresaiden]

Ahh I have to say, no matter what people say about his singing or his odd choice of outfits when he's out and about with Karl.... Baptiste always photographs amazingly well.

 

[Boomer]

^ Yes- the true sign of a good model! There are plenty of good looking guys and girls who look great and don't photograph worth a damn... B)

 

[JesseDillon]

^THanks!! Who is Jon??

*GASP*

 

[Boomer]

^ I know- I know pretty much nothing about the guys...

interview

PONY RYDER: Baptiste, you have a music single coming out! How long have you been working on your album?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Preparing an album takes time because I appreciate to work with people I really like and I need to take time to do what I really want.
PONY RYDER: What is the musical style of your record?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: The musical style will be mostly electro-pop. I am currently working on a clip video with my manager and producer Side Hajjaji.

PONY RYDER: Do you think it will be fashion inspired?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: No, it will not be fashion inspired at all.
PONY RYDER: Are you comfortable juggling and switching between music and fashion? BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Yes, I am used to it and my work is so much fun that I really enjoy it.

​

PONY RYDER: When did you develop an interest in making music?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Since I was a kid, but before I met my manager and producer Side Hajjaji I just “went with the flow” on the fashion life, that I have put music apart for a while. Thank you Side to have made my dream come true…

PONY RYDER: How much pressure do you feel to prove yourself as a singer?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: I don't have any pressure, I just do what I like and I hope people will enjoy it as much as I do singing it.

PONY RYDER: Do you have stage fright?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Not for the moment because I am used to that during fashion shows, but I am sure it will come very fast

PONY RYDER: Are you planning on doing a tour soon?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: I would love to do a tour, but one step after the other...for the moment I am promoting my single and working on my album.

​

PONY RYDER: The entire world was quite impressed with your relaxed and friendly attitude during your interview with mademoiselle Agnes! How do you stay so grounded?

BAPTISTE GIABICONI: It is just the way I am, I just know where I come from and how lucky I am to be there.

​

PONY RYDER: Do you like bouillabaisse?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Yes, of course

PONY RYDER: What is your dearest memory of Marseilles?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: I know it might sound a bit like a «cliché“ but simply to have breakfast on the “Vieux Port“ in Marseille and watch the sun rising up.

​

PONY RYDER: Do you wake up and have a croissant? How does your typical day in Paris look like?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Wake up and have breakfast made of coffee (real French coffee of course ), orange juice, French bread with butter and honey... You know everything..

PONY RYDER: Despite all the glamour of life in Paris, life in Corsica sounds so much better.
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Paris is the city of energy which I really love for work, and Corsica is where I go to refill my batteries.

​

PONY RYDER: What's next on your big life to-do list?
BAPTISTE GIABICONI: Start a new career as a singer….
