MODEL SPOTLIGHT: WENDELL LISSIMORE

MEET WENDELL LISSIMORE. With three covers out on stands on now, it is no question as to why he is our latest man du jour. The Utah native started modeling in 2006, appearing in Italian Vanity Fair and doing some catalogue work here and there. But it wasn't until 2008 that he started blowing up. He did Hermes, Emanuel Ungaro, Mugler and Kris Van Assche, while working it out on the print side, booking a V editorial with the one and only, Linda Evangelista. This month, you can see him on the covers of Italian D, with his son Phoenix, Bleu, and Japan's LUSSW, each showing a different side of this hunk of man. An absolute chameleon, we love how his look goes from Urban Chic to simply, Sophisticated.
