NG Appreciation Post

I said it in the previous post. What I wrote there can be translated to: I have found a greater admiration for new Artistic Director of women's collection of Louis Vuitton. 

We know Nicolas Ghesquière and his highly-technical works but let me talk about his good looks.

He used to look dorky as per my perusal in Style.com of his photos circa early 00's. Dorky but cute anyway.

Fast forward to the last seven years, the fashion darling's overall look has seen better days:

You cannot not be disenchanted by the fashionable stubble

See?

Even his cartoon self (from the  2012 Disney animated short Electric Holiday) is adorkable

No, I'm not actually describing Nicholas Hoult. I digress.

I bet you are going to look again for those close-up photos for what Agnès B. (whose studio gave him his first break as an intern) describes in the latest magazine feature about Mr. Ghesquière to come out, this time from Ingrid Sischy's article in Vanity Fair:

“I remember his face. His eyes are strong and clear. There are the eyes and there is the look—le regard. His has something in common with Montgomery Clift."

I think she's talking more about Clift's lips.

Segue: Lolo is hot

Other trove of photos will prove you I'm right about what I'm talking about.

Back to the business of fas-yown: with the LV template of artisinal heritage + NG with his intellect and technical knowledge, this condensation to propel the luxury conglomerate's flagship brand to a whole new relevance (the debut collection of casual-luxe and youthful sportswear is refreshing) will be exciting to observe. And so will be NG's visibility. Please Nicolas, 'wag mo masyadong i-peg ang pagiging press-shy ni Phoebe Philo. Kthnks.

New gay crush! Nics, try to look less serious (read: smile a lot, to look younger).

P.S. My LV dream has been revived. I wanna work for LV.
