BVF & his Versace Jeans Collection

Over the last 14 years in NYC I was fortunate to meet some awesome people. My good friend Sansho introduced me to a group of young men (Harry McNally, Nick Poe, Scott Williams & Robert Waltzer) who have become very close friends of mine. Im thankful for every minute i spent with these cats and for their introducing me to their dear friend Gordon- aka Baron Von Fancy. Gordon has been collecting (mostly) Women’s Versace Jeans for a very long time. In some you can see how he added a fabric to make them fit. He wears a few of these on just any day, but most have never been out of his closet. I have been wanting to photograph his collection for a minute and we finally packed a duffle and took a walk with Metal to Central Park. It was freezing and we were rushed, not giving excuses, just putting it out there.
Gord, I love you Hunk

The Star Of The Show

To you he may look like a regular dude- Of course to me he’s a diamond. His green wool shirt and green t shirt initially caught my eye. Then it was his old Alan Mikli frames with contrasting temples and his beret. But his flannel wool sweatpants with Hush Puppie loafers were pretty radical. After talking for a minute I learned that his 1st job in N.Y. was designing at Mr. Mort. After a few days of him impressing the pants off everyone with his sketches and designs, Stan Herman asked to speak with him and told him “There is only 1 star here at Mr. Mort and that is me”. So he packed up and left.
