I love that shot with the Balenciaga billboard.

 

[BerlinRocks]

are they releasing a Fantastic Man China ?
or is this just an insert 'like that' ...
they did an insert for Gentlewoman before releasing it ...

I love that shot with the Balenciaga billboard.

Me too, mostly because it's one of my favorite ads.

The 14th installment of FANTASTIC MAN features the phenomenal fashion designer Mr. RAF SIMONS on the cover. Photographed at his home in Antwerp, RAF is seen wearing select pieces by RAF SIMONS and JIL SANDER – both brands he designs for. Three equally compelling gentlemen constitute the other main profiles: the fabulous magician Mr. DAVID COPPERFIELD, the interior-decorator extraordinaire Mr. RICKY CLIFTON and the hailed London-based chef Mr. YOTAM OTTOLENGHI. Furthermore, FANTASTIC MAN explores new grounds in CHINA through a 37-page fashion reportage inspired by the stylistic characteristics of the gentlemen of Beijing. The home object of the season is the curious PAPERWEIGHT, a truly beautiful but truly useless object. The brothers COVIZZI, familiar faces to the fashion circuit, are seen in an Italian suiting exposé during the recent menswear presentations in Milan. The remainder of the issue is full of many other diversions, style investigations, tips and tricks for the upcoming Autumn and Winter seasons, including a delightful new format in which we have conducted conversations chats with a number of commendable men, aptly titled THE CONVERSATIONS.

We are very proud that today’s recommendation is the brand-new 14th issue of FANTASTIC MAN, featuring the phenomenal fashion designer Mr. RAF SIMONS on the cover. RAF was photographed for the cover and the spreads inside by WILLY VANDERPERRE and styled by OLIVIER RIZZO with garments from his own wardrobe. The issue will be in shops later this week – the exact date depending on the store’s proximity to our distributor’s warehouse in the UK.

Me three. Although I'm not a huge fan of the ad itself, it looks impressive in this shot.

 

[CrisGalaxy]

i love it!

 

[Pricciao]

the font they use in Simplified Chinese is disgusting, that's the what old 80s calenders would use.

 

[Ives927]

I personally love the font/text. I also wonder if that is an actual cover or just made for the spread. It's a great shot.

 

[Fiancee]

Maybe the 80's vibe was what they were trying for, Fantastic Man often has this strange vintage throw-back style to it
