Paolo Roldan - An Interview With Givenchy's Leading Man

Filipino-Canadian top model, Paolo Roldan, was profiled in a segment of Balitang America. The segment gives some background on Paolo's entrance into the world of modeling and his rise to fame through the noted brand, Givenchy. The handsome model looks dashingly urban chic and seems uber sweet and friendly. He's definitely a Nic E. Rock fave and I can't wait to see more from this model...including some lovely and tasteful nudes.

Ciara & Paolo Rolden - Givenchy's Muses In Vogue Paris

Riccardo Tisci, chief designer of Givenchy, calls upon his latest muse, Ciara, and photographers, Mert & Marcus, to create the visually stunning "Coup De Foudre" editorial for the pages of Vogue Paris. Fueled by Christian themes and styled with Givenchy Couture (by Tisci himself) the editorial overflows with a dark and sexualized mood replete with images of worship, (animal) bondage, and nude models like fellow model muse, Paolo Roldan.

Givenchy FW 2010 Campaign Preview With Transexual Model Lea T.

Givenchy is a rare clothing house that manages to continually grab my attention with it's unique style and flavor. Whether or not I love the collection itself I can always find respect for the brand's messages and themes. To put it simply, Givenchy enamors me.

Unsurprisingly, chief designer, Ricardo Tisci, has done it again with Givenchy's Fall/Winter 2010 campaign. A preview of next season's campaign has been released to the internet and it already has me chomping at the bits to see the rest of the photos. Shot by photographers, Mert & Marcus, the campaign features a diverse smörgåsbord of beautiful models including Joan Smalls (not pictured), Paolo Roldan, Jonathan Marquez, Simon Nessman and Malgosia Bela.

But the standout model of the bunch is Brazilian model, Lea T. Formerly known as Leo, Lea is a transexual woman as well as Tisci's longtime personal assistant and former fit model. Tisci explained to WWD that “She’s always been very feminine: superfragile, very aristocratic. She’s part of the family,” He also added that her look complimented Givenchy's feminine-masculine dichotomy or as I personally like to call it, their penchant for androgyny and gender fucking.
