You ever saw a picture and thought someone was 'arresting'? The hooded gaze, the curve of the mouth. Spells dark, foreboding trouble. You just can't stop staring at the face, the way he looked at the camera.


No, I'm not talking about a rock star or an actor or a model. This is a regular dude, a brother to someone I don't know and I came across the picture when I was looking for a dress on flickr. Yes, odd. If her story is to be believed, the man in the picture tried to kill his own sister. He was apparently a psychopath. I knew there was something unsettling in that gaze. But I gotta admit he looked good enough to eat.

If Ann Demeulemeester had a muse, he could've been it. Neo edwardian suit in tall black boots. Another unsmiling one is Paul Boche who always models for her. I thought he could have been Joscelin Verreuil but then Boche broods too damn much.

Hmm. The thing is, in the first 1.5 books, Joscelin DOES brood way too damn much - it's sorta his thing. Good choice, I think, though he'd need to tone up and broaden his shoulders with some bulk. Pretty. =)
