Matthew Terry (Ford Men), face of Calvin Klein Bold, spoke with Style.com during the Steven Klein campaign shoot at Joshua Tree National Park. Although the 20-year-old VMAN / Ford Model search winner is a personal trainer, he admitted to finding some of the gymnastic poses for the campaign to be a challenge. “I have always liked gymnastics and I give the people that do it a lot of credit because they make it look so easy, but it’s actually really hard.” [Style.com]

Erjona Ala (Ford) was tipped as the next street style star by photographer Craig Arend of Altamira. Arend attributes Erjona’s rising status to her willingness to eschew the standard issue new face uniform of black skinnies and leather jacket. “While models are often encouraged to wear skinny jeans and leather jackets, Erjona candidly stepped outside that comfort zone.” [Vogue.com]
