Gq Cool

Since jazz musicians coined the expression in the 1940s and West Side Story refined it in the 1950s, no word has better expressed our contemporary aspirations. Forget being clever, rich or beautiful. If you have 'cool' -- that mysterious, powerful 'je ne sais quoi' -- then nothing can stand in your way. For more than ten years, GQ magazine has been the bible of male fashion, and Jo Levin, fashion director, has directed sessions featuring those icons who have defined the essence of male cool. From David Bowie to David Beckham, Harrison Ford, Alec Baldwin and Ewan McGregor, GQ Cool features actors and musicians, performers and sportsmen, the established and the upstarts -- in fact, anyone who has left their particular, indelible mark on the world of cool. Book jacket.Levin, Jo is the author of 'Gq Cool' with ISBN 9781862056039 and ISBN 186205603X.
