Unreal: Model Rick Genest
Rick Genest is hype and has been for the last 6 months or so since he began working with Mugler and consequently Lady Gaga. But, somehow I'm sure he was popular even before his recent fashion appearances within mod and tattoo communities for the absolutely absurd amount of artwork that covers his body. Now Rick will be featured in Arena Homme Plus magazine photographed by Steven Klein and directed by Nicola Formichetti who is the creative director of Mugler and Gaga's stylist. But despite Rick's temporary fame his prospects for modeling are limited, his look is so unique that he will be suitable for very limited amounts of work. Mugler has been there an done that now, and the fashion world will move on looking for the next best thing. Also, I'd love to get a shot of this guy 50 years from now.
