the femulation of Martin Cohn

Last week, I wrote here about male model Martin Cohn, who modeled a cocktail dress at the recent Elise Overland's SS10 fashion show.

Upon further investigation, I discovered that on a daily basis, Mr. Cohn usually dons clothing that is at least androgynous (above left) and often downright feminine (above center).

I also discovered that his cocktail dress catwalk gig last month was not his first foray into modeling women's wear. For example, he appeared en femme modeling a Marc Jacobs skirt (above right) and posed as Candy Darling for an Interview magazine photoshoot.

Wow!

  1. I used to subscribe to Interview, and I remember seeing that issue. At the time, I was teed off because there weren't any photos of the real Candy Darling. I should have been more impressed with the photos they did have. Nice find!

  7. Any update on his latest modeling photoshoots? I have tried to search on goolge but the links are old and show the same pics again. Any idea where his latest pics or websites (If any) are located?

  8. Martin Cohn was perhaps the first male model to do women's fashion modeling...today there are dozens of androgynous boys doing that. It's a really a trend for fashion designers to use slender androgynous boys as their models...although these boys do not have the bodies of ordinary females...
