ABERCROMBIE & FITCH'S "MANALOGUE" RETURNS

Abercrombie & Fitch is bringing back it's quarterly "manalogue"... the in-house fashion magazine that was dropped in 2003 after protests about its racy "pornographic" content.

Much more 'magazine' than catalog, A&F's new manual returns to form with fashion photography by Bruce Weber - and no 'product' shots.

Sadly, from what I've read, the manalogues are only being distributed at A&F's London store.  Never-the-less, I'll keep my eye out for images.  Stay tuned!

PAUL VANDERVORT MOVES AHEAD WITH A&F

By now, you've probably seen the posters featuring Paul Vandervort for Abercrombie & Fitch's new Spring campaign.  Now get to know the model.  In his interview with Connex24.7, Paul shares his thoughts about Bruce Weber, the fashion world, friendship,  and much more!  You'll also see some more hot pics, LIKE THESE!

"I was actually in Vegas with some friends when I got the call from Nando that I got the job, and less than a week after I get back from Vegas, I needed to be on a plane to New York (for the A&F shoot)! We were booked in a resort in the Hamptons literally 20 ft. from the beach and it was better than being on vacation."

CHAD RAILE: A HINT OF WHAT'S TO COME

I just learned that former Abercrombie & Fitch model and cover-boy Chad Raile will be featured on the cover of a certain magazine in January... along with a full 7 page spread.  I just thought I'd give you a hint of things to come.  I'll probably post the pics later this month - so be sure to check back! - ES!

ABERCROMBIE is looking FIERCE

Abercrombie & Fitch is looking Fierce for the Fall and Winter with several fresh, new faces.  I don't know if it puts me in the mood to do my Christmas shopping, but it sure puts me in the mood for something else! ;)  Via Ohlala.

111 SHIRTLESS MEN do IMPROV at ABERCROMBIE!

111 shirtless men of all shapes, colors and sizes dropped in on Abercrombie & FItch's 5th Ave. store in New York City as part of Improv Everywhere's newest mission.

Improv Everywhere causes scenes of chaos and joy in public places. Created in August of 2001 by Charlie Todd, Improv Everywhere has executed over 60 missions involving hundreds of undercover agents. The group is based in New York City.

Abercrombie's New Face: Kris Lewin

Abercrombie & Fitch has a new face (and bod!) to show, and his name is Kris Lewin.  A college graduate of...and former football player for...the University of Nebraska, Kris is now a store greeter and the newest campaign model for the all-American A&F.  (Watch the video)
