Francesco Cominelli was found dead in his Paris apartment last night

Vogue Hommes International editor Francesco Cominelli was found dead in his Paris apartment last night!

"Il avait la jeunesse et la beauté, un sourire rafraichissant comme un spray, une bonne humeur inoxydable, une élégance audacieuse qui électrisait les blogs et un talent des plus prometteurs. Styliste né, assistant d’Anastasia Barbieri, membre de la famille Vogue Hommes International depuis plus de cinq ans, Francesco Cominelli nous a quittés. Toutes nos pensées vont à sa famille et ses proches dont nous partageons l’immense chagrin." - Olivier Lalanne

Style Icon - Bruce Pask (fashion director at The New York Times Style Magazine)

 

 Men's fashion director of The New York Times' T Magazine. Mr Pask also styles and consults for numerous magazines, department stores and designers. He has costume designed for the theatre, most recently for the 2010 Broadway revival of Promises Promises, by Neil Simon. 

 What I love about Bruce Pask is that he makes wearing a suit look casual but effortless. Most likely you won't see him a suit jacket with the matching pants; he'll opt to pair it with shorts, jeans, or khakis. The way he wears his jackets on his shoulders has this heroic cape-like quality that just goes to show you he's always comfortable, and not taking fashion as seriously as some of his contemporaries.

 “My big wardrobe adjustment is making a jacket into a cape, just taking it on and off because outside it’ll be so beautiful and inside it’ll be so stuffy. And it may look a little pretentious wearing a jacket on your shoulders but for me it’s just about temperature regulation, I just get so sick of putting on a jacket and taking it off all the time. It’s just practical.”

Style Icon - Francesco Cominelli (fashion editor at Vogue Hommes International)

 Francesco Cominelli is one of the fashion editors at Vogue Hommes International, and also works as a stylist for publications such as Hercules, Blast and more. He became a street style star when street style blogs such as The Sartorialist and JakandJil continued to snap his unique take on men's fashion. Francesco mixes current trends in with quirky vintage pieces and one-off finds. He has a shoe box full of vintage watches, and has a particular love for leather backpacks.

He can also regularly be seen carrying an oversized leather clutch, along with a pair of vintage-inspired sunglasses and his blackberry. His wardrobe staples include patterned tailored blazers, suit trousers and loafers, while he also often dons oversized knits, smart printed shirts and leather belts. He said recently his style is derived from a number of sources including: "Miuccia Prada, Damien Hirst, David Lachapelle, Walt Disney, Shala Monroque, Tai and Rosita Missoni". While he describes his current style as a "mix of vintage, customized clothes and few new pieces".
