Mario Testino explores the shift in male representation. Possibly the most famous fashion photographer working today, Mario Testino has shot everyone: Kate Moss, Gisele Bündchen, the Royals – you name them, he’s photographed them.
While the Peruvian may be better known for his images of women (he’s shot over 60 covers for British Vogue), he photographs men too – something you’ll be aware of if you follow his Towel Series on Instagram. It’s Testino’s male subjects that are the focus of his latest book, SIR, that brings together over 300 photos (many of which have not been seen before) from throughout his career. More than just celebrating the male body, this book looks at the shifting ways men present themselves and are, in turn, represented. “The way men are seen in photography, in fashion, and the way that men look at pictures of themselves has changed in recent years,” says Testino. “It is a subject that has come into focus: The masculine image, a man’s personal style, changing attitudes to the male face and body.”
BLOOM. Young Dutch photographer Loes Heerink has lived in Hanoi for several years.
As she explained: “photographing the street vendors became a little project of mine. I would spend hours on top of a couple of locations in Hanoi waiting for vendors to walk underneath the bridge. The male beauty revolution. Ten years ago most men would laugh at the idea of moisturising.
Now we're beginning to see the start of something completely different. The rise of the new male beauty tribe - one that's unafraid to use make-up as a form of self expression, rather than just a beauty enhancer. In Japan new trends like Genderless Kei -- where boys have dyed hair, contact lenses, nail polish and make-up -- are surfacing. Then there are the tween beauty experts, with thousands of followers, like 16-year-old Looking for Lewys, or 17-year-old Barbiegutz, who both embody a fresh faced, experimental approach to beauty. At the same time the mainstream market for male beauty is growing. Male beauty is no longer a taboo subject.

Caitlyn Jenner on the Cover of Vanity Fair. On March 15, the day of the Los Angeles Marathon and myriad street closures, Bruce Jenner left his bunker-style home above Decker Canyon in Malibu at 4:15 in the morning to avoid any possibility of being late.
Detection seemed unlikely this early in the day; even the paparazzi go back to their wormholes for a few hours’ sleep before the body count begins again. But anything could happen, as it had in January of 2014 in the space of roughly five feet from the back door of a medical office to the car, with Jenner’s neck in a bandage from a tracheal shave, his picture snapped and disseminated into the Internet infinity of insatiable gossip at warp speed.

Jenner had already been taking hormones. National Transgender Discrimination Survey: Executive Summary. This study brings to light what is both patently obvious and far too often dismissed from the human rights agenda.
