Top male model Marlon Teixeira rings in the premiere issue of GQ Style China right with a smokin' shirtless editorial. Photographer Dusan Reljin captured Teixeira in little else but jeans of various brands and a Sean Spellman jacket.
The editorial's set is similarly sparse: Marlon Teixeira simply poses, lounges and does shoulder stands on an old striped mattress. The images were captured in black and white, which puts Teixeira's trim physique and rippled abs front and center.
My favorite shot from the GQ Style China editorial is the one in which Teixeira is staring directly at the camera while wearing a jean jacket. His gaze is at once innocent and incisive -- qualities that fashion fans will note from his other editorials and campaigns.
