What do you get when you combine a fashion director, a fairly underground-style publication, techno dancers and new fashion? No, not a waft of nostalgia (at least I should hope not) and not a drug-fuelled roller-disco but the latest Dazed & Confused cover.
This is big not only because Dazed has decided to give a male model its cover but also because this male model is an unknown.
In fact according to the notorious fashion grapevine, Kevin is not a model at all but a dancer caught up in "Tecktonick" (a dance supposedly all the rage in France!)
The cover story is called 'Flashdance' and features Kevin in a series of dancing style shots with the looser fashion of the season captured in a clubby, smoke and strobe light setting.

With Nicola Formichetti styling, you expect a certain level of fashion brilliance but not only does this shoot reach the bar of Nicola's past but we are provided with a fresh concept and shrouding model mystery.
The shoot is also photographed by Laurence Passera, another strong sartorial player. Now all I have to do is learn how to Tecktonick- as if we men didn't suffer enough already!
