Italy’s premier male beauty pageant finished up recently with Gabriele Morra elected as “il piu’ bello d’Italia”, or “Italy’s most beautiful [man]”. Unlike the Miss Italy contest , this is not actually televised, to the disappointment of many female Italian television viewers, but it certainly says something about gender relations in Italy. Aside from that, we bring you the photos of Gabriele Morra, and while he’s nice, there are plenty of other nice guys surrounding him (check out the tall guy on the left, for example!).

Gianfranco Ferré 2010/11 autumn-winter collection was absolutely fabulous; as soon as the first model took to the catwalk, the public understood that they were in for a few mesmerizing surprises! Immaculately tailored houndstooth suites, black leather jackets, long grey belted-coats in the military style and fur tunics – which seemed to have come out of some romantic Russian novel – were the key elements of the Ferre man’s wardrobe today.

So at first it was a bit strange to move about those soulless dummies, but then when I got the chance to take a closer look at them, I was quite pleased with what I saw. Trussardi’s nod to artisanal fabric treatments obviously made a difference and one couldn’t help falling in love with those grey tartan shirts (worn with pinstripe trousers) and elegant suites!

When Andrew from 30 Words first contacted us for a review of their unique language guides, he was insistent on one thing: I had to attempt to ruin the review models he sent by trying to tear them, spill water on them and, most importantly, do a pull-up off one of them .
