Words: Gentleman's Journal
Welcome to the latest issue of Gentleman's Journal — a barn-stormer of a magazine that hopes to be as buoyant and sunlit as the weather outside (not to jinx things...)
The sweetness and light begins in our Portfolio section. Sheyi Cole is the namedrop to know about; The French 75 is a drink to make things go with a bang; our grooming awards keep it so fresh and so clean; and the case is made for Oxford shirts — not, shock horror, their linen cousins — as the ultimate summer garment.
Down in House Notes, meanwhile, we are bullish on the Bull in Charlbury, your favourite scenester’s favourite pub; Ed Cumming asks why everyone is obsessed with Guinness all of a sudden; Dana Brown remembers, albeit hazily, the best parties in Cannes; and Joseph Bullmore wonders why New York can’t do private members clubs’ quite like London.
In our Features well, we revisit the myth making and madness of Mohammed Fayed; celebrate Loro Piana’s 100th birthday; meet environmentalist and financier Ben Goldsmith; and spend time with Anderson Paak, our triumphant cover star whose smile is a full-beam bolt from the heavens, and whose story charts the highs, lows, beauties and pains of any great creative career.
All great fun, as you can probably tell. Or as Anderson might holler: Yes Lawd!
