Mathieu Flamini / Tung Walsh for GQ Italia

AC Milan’s is fresh off a victory this weekend over the AS Roma. And just in time for the festivities, Milan star forward Mathieu Flamini graces a 10 page spread in as this month’s Uomini di stile feature in GQ Italia. One of 2DM’s London boys, Tung Walsh, shot the the big-time calciatore and native Marseillaise on a gorgeous Triumph scrambler for “Fuori Dal Campo Come Steve McQueen” (Out of the Field Like Steve McQueen).


He even paid us a visit last month while in Italy for the shoot. And as usual, Mr. Walsh’s work shines – and these portraits are an incisive look into the footballer’s highly stylish side. Mathieu is dressed in everything from Woolrich, Closed, Fred Perry, Fred Mello, Tag Heuer and Gant, to Firetrap, Roy Rogers, Dirk Bikkembergs Sport Couture, Dries Van Noten and Yamamay.

The issue’s cover features an army-capped, bare-chested Bar Rafaeli (reason enough to buy the issue), a look look back at Bob Dylan, and a gripping piece on the women of Chernobyl. Of-the-moment and smart, this month’s issue of the Italian version of this most iconic of men’s fashion magazines is as good as ever, and we’re thrilled for Tung’s debut on these pages.
