30 GQ.COM.AU MEN OF THE YEAR 2017CONTRIBUTORS
MEN OF THE YEARHow can you ensure we have
hair like Jeff Goldblum’s
when we are at his age?
Use quality shampoos
and conditioners – not
the bargain grocery store
brands. A good diet will
also help.
Good advice. Goldlbum told
us he isn’t a fan of hair dye.
Got any other tips for keeping
your hair age appropriate?
I always say that whatever
the trend is for younger
guys, tone it down so it isn’t
as extreme.What will be the hairstyle
of 2018?
A less severe, more
natural, slightly messy
but not contrived
“sprayed-messy” style.
Who are three of your top
hair icons, right now?
Colin Farrell, Robert
Pattinson and the
modelTony Ward.
And, finally, can you give us
one convincing argument
for why every man should
blow-dry his hair?
Simple – it’ll add volume.NINO MUÑOZ
HAS BEEN A BUSY
MAN. FOR THIS
ISSUE, HE SHOT
JEFF GOLDBLUM
(P196), AMBER
HEARD (P188),
FLUME (P132)
AND ANSEL
ELGORT (P176).
What was the best thing
about working with
each of these subjects?
The best thing is that
I got to hang out in a
mid-century home with
Jeff, at the Chateau
Marmont with Amber,
a cabin in Laurel Canyon
with Flume and Ansel
at Milk Studios.
What were they like to
work with?
I love that Jeff was up
for anything – including
whatever your fashion
team put him in. Amber
was so free and open –
I just chased her around
the Chateau Marmont
with a camera and a
glass of red wine. Flume
was a real sweetheart
and Ansel was a total
dance party.
Who’s on your wish list,
to shoot with?
Dolly Parton and
William Shatner.
Maybe next year.
Craziest experience
you’ve ever had
on a shoot?
SARAH HUGHES
GQ’S BRAND-NEW ART DIRECTOR
HAD A BAPTISM OF FIRE WITH OUR
BIGGEST ISSUE OF THE YEAR.You joined Team GQ just in time for our
Men of the Year issue. How’s it been?
A whirlwind. And it probably didn’t help
matters that I had a trip to Fiji (see below)
right before we sent to print. But it was
a best friend’s wedding I couldn’t miss.
Fair enough. What excites you the most
about working for GQ?
Working with really talented people and
all the excellent photographers we’ve
managed to feature in this issue.
Where do you get your design
inspiration from?
Mostly international titles, Vogue Italia,
Harper’s UK and more recently GQ Tu r key.
Who is your favourite Men of the Year
profile and why?
Travis Fimmel, (p162), from an art director’s
point of view that story was so much fun
to design. I love the location, the richness
of colour in the photos and you can see his
personality shine through in each shot. We
had a hard time editing that because there
were so many amazing images to work with.
Jeff Goldblum is a close second. I would tell you,
but I signed a non-
disclosure agreement!
Have you got
any advice for
photographers who
are looking to follow
in your footsteps?
Ye s. J u s t
keep shooting.
Tell us something
people might not know
about you?
I’m obsessed with
toy dog breeds -
I have three.
What did you want
to be when you were
younger?
I honestly really
wanted to work in a
zoo. So I guess I got
what I wished for!IS RESPONSIBLE FOR GQ’S INTERNATIONAL ICON
