Christos Katsavochristos x REY

October 28, 2021 by Christos Christou

Christos Katsavochristos from VN Models has been one of our favourites from day one,

The last three years, we have seen his career growing and him being the main face of big campaigns in Europe and the world.

REY: Finally we meet again!

Christos: Hello again! Thank you for having me Xx

When did you start modelling?

Well, it was about 7 years ago! At the beginning of my career I wasn’t really focused on that. It took me around a year to start seeing things more professionally!

Who was the first person to offer you job?

The owner of an agency approached me in a pool party in Mykonos and proposed to me to be represented by him in the model industry. I took the chance of course and a year after I signed with a bigger agency.

Have you always wanted to be a model?

It was on my mind cause some people used to tell me about it but I wasn’t sure that I want to do it. I used to be like “it would be nice, but I don’t know” haha

Do you have any male model as an idol or inspiration for modelling?

David Gandy is one of my favourites! I don’t really have him as an idol or specific source of inspiration though. I admire him as I do with a lot of models as well but that’s it! I don’t try to be someone else, we are all unique.

Here at REY, we are Katsavochristos fans from day one! We have seen you growing in the industry and finally your face was all around Europe and the world with your latest D Squared campaign. Tell us more about your experience.

Well it still looks weird to me every time I look back to think about this journey. It was a super interesting experience with ups and downs but in the end I am winner just because I lived it! The Dsq2 campaign it is one of the biggest in my career I have to admit! Thanks to Dean & Christian Oita and their beautiful mood and energy the photoshoot turned into a fun day and that’s the most important part of it - the journey! And of course I’m so grateful for the great material (pics+videos) I got!

Which photo shooting is your favourite so far?

Oh there are so many that I can’t compare them. Actually, my favourite ones are the shootings that I got treated well, the team was kind and I didn’t get too much tired. But I can’t reveal more for the clients hehe.

Any future plans you can share with us?

.Nowadays everything changes so fast in unexpected ways. Since we all have to live with Covid19 in our life I’m trying to make new plans that could stand the current situation. I am already in discussions for new projects but you’ll see more very soon ;)

Tell us something about you that we didn’t expect to hear.

I love singing! I sing all the time, in the shower, in the car, on my bicycle etc but I’m the worst singer all around the world!

Are you in love this period?

I’m not and I started worrying about that from the time you asked me hahaha

What is the song you are always listening to these days?

Oh that’s easy, my favourite song the last 2 years is the “Iron Sky” by Paolo Nutini

HardClo Spring Summer 2020: The Lookbook

April 07, 2020 by Rey Magazine

HardClo unveiled the lookbook for its Spring/Summer 2020 “MAYDAY” collection.

The Creative Director Yiorgos Mesimeris notes,

“Drawing inspiration from Gericault’s Medusa, this collection is based upon the worst traits and the best virtues of the human nature. Hope, mirages, bad weathers and winds, treason. Everything coincides to become part of our reality, either political, personal or even environmental. All constitute hazards. Yet the will to strive and survive always got the best out of a worst-case scenario. When everything seems to have fallen apart, never-ending courage finds a gleam of light to cease upon. Chaumery was inadequate and traitor, Africa Battalion wanted what was rightfully theirs. Medusa was a hope in utter darkness. And a song we sang as children without knowing the consequences it carried.”

YSL Beauty: Every day Make-up for Men

March 30, 2020 by Rey Magazine

Make-up for men is going mainstream with subtle products designed to enhance your best features and hide spots and general knackeredness. Some years ago make up for men was another one taboo, but not anymore. Debate what it means for masculinity if you like because we’re not going to.

We don’t think it’s really a revolution, or feminisation gone berserk. It’s just an option – one you can take or leave as you see fit to fine-tune your appearance.

Because , men get black spots before a date or dark circles after a long night working or clubbing.

Our beauty editor and Greece’s YSL beauty expert Christos Theophanous has some of the easiest YSL products to use, even if it wil be for every day use and for different occasions every time:

TOUCHE ÉCLAT FOUNDATION

WHAT IT IS

The magic light of Touche Éclat in the 1st radiance awakening foundation by YSL Beauty. More fatigue-defying and better flawless coverage than ever.

WHAT IT DOES

Enriched with the stimulating power of Ruscus Extract, the anti-fatigue formula energizes skin by stimulating micro-circulation and targeting dullness to instantly improve skin brightness and luminosity. Vitamin E protects against free radicals. Formulated with SPF 22 to provide sun protection, it leaves a weightless finish while offering eight hours of a refreshed, radiant look.

ALL HOURS FOUNDATION

WHAT IT IS

A 24-Hour, natural matte foundation with buildable medium-to-full-coverage that instantly blurs pores and fines lines, for uninterrupted flawless wear that looks just-applied all day.

It is made in France with the finest pigments and ingredients that respect and care for the skin and provide the perfect natural matte finish – not too matte and never shiny, so you look naturally flawless. All Hours is oil free, non comedogenic and dermatologist tested.

WHAT IT DOES

All Hours 24-Hour advanced formula won’t cake, dry, flake or fade. The transfer-proof, oil-free and non-pore clogging formula comes in 33 shades. Flexible pigments and skin-loving ingredients provide flawless coverage that stands up to makeup meltdowns. The weightless texture leaves skin feeling fresh and comfortable all day, like you have nothing on. Instantly blurs and erases imperfections, pores and unevenness thanks to the highest concentration of ultra-fine, oil absorbing pigments that cover and smooth perfectly yet resist sweat and humidity.
