John Bartlett's Spring/Summer 2010 ready-to-wear collection menswear collection for Liz Claiborne kicked off New York Fashion Week. The collection was previewed in the company's showroom and spotted were models of the moment and it boys Manuel Ramos and Zack Clark.
As Madonna says in Celebration, you probably don't recognize them with clothes on. Manuel and Zack were seen together in that hot hot homoerotic Flaunt editorial with Mad Men's January Jones. Manuel recently walked in Paris for Givenchy A/W 2009.
Manuel is represented by Re:Quest. Zack is repped by Major.
Not really a purple fan but Zack is wearing it well. Several more images of both men, WHEN YOU JUMP.
LOL, no I almost didn't recognize Zack with clothes on. He ha sbeen going shirtless so often and its lovely, lol.
Manuel is very hot. Where is he from?

Great piece, Rod!
the models are hot, and John Bartlett--THANK YOU for coming BACK to fashion! Show these weak ass male designers HOW IT IS DONE!
I love John's work and i love how he has ALWAYS showcased men of color in his many fashion shows and it has always looked and felt organic...
plus, his clothes are fantastic and he's one of the FEW designers out there who knows how to design for men of color (i.e. you don't have to get the pants taken in or out because you got ample back and/or front)!
good stuff!
now, if only Ozwald Boateng and Ron and Ron would come back to the scene, i'll be quite happy.
