The Cut caught up with Michael Bastian at GQ's Gentlemen's Ball last night, and talked about (among other things) pedicures. "At our Gant show every single model had to get a pedicure. And you would think if you’re a model that you'd take general, basic care of yourself. But these male models, I think they just grew up so beautiful that they look good whenever, even if they never take a shower. So you basically have to expect that they're a disaster and you have to take care of everything." [The Cut]
