I found what i was looking at on showstudio... i was wrong you were right scott 
Hottest Male Designer
- Thread starter ultramarine
- Start date
If I remember rightly , Hedi had a ' fling ' , with Raf , NOT Xavier .
I have the copy of ARENA HOMME PLUS in which RAF discusses the ' affaire ' and its aftermath .
Since they obviously share their interest in ' garcons ' of a certain ' Je ne sais quoi ' , type , perhaps the pressure got TOO much within the short - lived relationship .
As for looks , Raf is somewhat open faced with slick straight hair , whereas Hedi goes for the ' Tin-Tin ' look , only to be expected with his French background .
By the way , I STILL think ATSURO TAYAMA is the VERY best looking of all .
I have never succomed to the ' playboy ' looks of TOM FORD .
He learned his lessons well from Bianca Jagger at Studio 54 ,in the late 70s , in her previous ' spoilt - b*tch ' incarnation , before she reinvented herself as the socially concerned UN ambassadress for the underprivileged , ( eat your heart out Gerry Halliwell ) . That's why TF's designs have NEVER strayed very far from this somewhat ' outre ' period , imho !
I'm afraid I'm somewhat TOO old and cynical to buy into the ' change ' .
Still , I'm off point .
ATSURO TAYAMA FOREVER , I say .

According to what I've heard from friends in Antwerpen,that description of Raf is on the nail,Space. Kit,was that Arena Homme + you saw his picture in? I'm surprised he actually let someone photograph him openly....in that Vogue story from a couple years ago,"Independent's Day",a friend who scouted the place touted that he was there underneath one of those hoods.
Chris*,no problem. Its easy to confuse with so many male designers who have a that similar style
I concur with you guys on Tom Ford. For one,I've seen better looking hairy-chested men--fashion or otherwise. And two,that unsavory attitude and his antics are what I really find more disgusting. That playboy schtick,indeed.
More designer hotties:
Tom Notte and Bart Vandebosch from Les Hommes
Jean-Paul Knott
Pascal Humbert
Brian Kirby from Boudicca
Hussein Chalayan
Hamish Morrow
Angelo Figus

are you serious?i mean Angelo Fingus you must be joking scott*
hottest designer guy of all is -for me- Pascal Humbert
also:
*Xavier D.
*Helmut Lang
*Ennio Capasa (too straight)
*and ...Tomas Maier from Bottega Venetta (in a very erhhh
twisted way ) 
What's wrong with Angelo? I think he's very handsome. Maybe not HOT,reeking of raw sexual magnitism....but in a sweet way he's very good-looking. Striking,I suppose one could say. Either way,he's married anyway so it probably doesn't matter much 
I have eclectic taste in men so you shant be surprised
Pascal,though,is extremely good looking! If anybody has that playboy appeal,would be him,imho. He looks so much like those kinds of guys during the 70's.
Talking of sexual preference,the gay designer that I seriously have a thing for is,Lutz....as you know
Which reminds me,I completely forgot about Thomas Engel Hart!

Tom Ford...definately 
and John Galliano, phwor, theres always been a strange attraction to galliano for me, just something cute about him but sexy too.

NO pic with the ARENA article , but I DO have one somewhere in a continental mag - wide faced , sallow complexion , long lank hair , drawn across the face in a curtain , looks like a good meal would not go amiss !!!
Runner's pic COULD be him if we are talking the guy BEHIND , but with LONG hair .
KIT
PS
I have a short article on BOUDICCA from a UK mag .
You can have it with pleasure , if you PM me a contact name and address .

That blonde guy in the background there I know is the model who frequents Raf's runway. A friend of his,I think. I dunno,holding the banner,is that who you're pointing out Runner*? Its so weird,I never knew what he looked like because I was staying merely two blocks from his Atelier,otherwise I would have been on the look-out(a good way of saying stalking
) ultramarine

I'm pretty sure I saw a video of Raf somewhere ... wasn't there a piece on him for FashionTV? I was a bit surprised that he'd let the cameras tape him like twas no big deal!
Oh ... and about
Oh ... and about
I'm freaked! I just do not get how people can find him attractive!

Kit, he wore his hair long indeed when I saw his picture and a video of him at the first runway show in the nineties.Originally posted by kit@Jun 15th, 2004 - 3:38 pm

the pic above was shot on the 29th November 2003, so I judged that the man wearing black t may be him, considering the passage of time. but I 'm not certain.
http://www.swisstextiles.ch/en/fairs/e_evt_gwand_2003.cfm
anyway I will post it which there is no doubt about. (somehow scanner is not work now)
by the way Scott, CCP AW/04 collection seems to include a variety of pieces for women after a long time.
from man's point of view, Carol Christian Poell looks cool.
Vincenzo De Cotiis (below) behind Haute as well.

Raf is the one behind , wearing a blue blouson , deffo . B)
The pic I have of him with LONG hair , is from VOGUES HOMMES INTERNATIONAL from the late 90s , so it all chimes in . There was also a pic of Dirk Bikkembergs .
I think RAF and Xavier are doing a Martin Margiela , in preserving their artistic integrity and letting their designs speak for them , NOT their appearance !!!
How utterly unlike the attitude of our own dear Tom Ford , to subvert a famous phrase ( about Queen Victoria - ' how unlike the attitude of our own dear Queen ' .
I hope you catch the irony and relevance !!!!! B) B) B)
Sorry I cannot get to it as I'm very restricted in movement , at the moment , and will be for some months , but I WILL uncover it when I can move and lift my vast archive of Mags , cuttings etc etc .
The guy in the black T-shirt and white jacket must be a friend model etc .
Regards
KIT
Kit,click on that link of Runner's and you'll see that the guy behind is actually one of the model's-- whose name is Robbie,I remembered.
I'm almost certain the man in the black t'shirt is Raf.
Runner*,CCP does look cool. And thanks for letting me know about the women's...do you know where to find it?

Agreed Scott
But the pic I mentioned of Raf looks nothing like him here .
MUST be the lack of long hair !!!
Still , you can see what Hedi was attracted to !!!
Eat your heart out Kaiser Karl !!! ( Or don't as it COULD be fattening !!! ) .
Kit
I was just going to say,that my journalistic friend in Antwerpen,confirmed that was indeed him. She knows just about every designer there so I trust her word.
From what I see,he's very good-looking and very much in vein with the style of his work. So yes,I can what Hedi saw in him B)

Scott, as far as I know right now, the small collection will be available at Lift and MinorityRev.
but the stores are in Japan.
http://www.minorityrev.com/minority/20042005/index.html
As for Lift, they will certainly ship to you.
L'Eclaireur carried womens pieces till S/S 2002, so I think there's a possibility that they will.
