1. Brad Kroenig / Ford

Handsome AND charming. Hardworking and ambitious, Brad Kroenig has leapt to the front of the class. The sign of a true male supermodel? To have your long locks cropped and generate a whole V Man editorial about it. Brad Kroenig is still at the front as the male model of the moment with his third Fendi gig in a row, a new Chanel Homme booking and that ubiquitous Adidas spot. It's clear that he's not about to stop!

2. Ryan Snyder/Major

The All-American Mr Snyder has shot Arena Homme Plus, L'uomo Vogue, Dolce & Gabbana shot by Steven Meisel, Michael Kors with supermodel Daria Werbowy and Roberto Cavalli. As the only male in the newest campaigns, what you have is a star.

3. Karl Lindman/Wilhelmina

As the solo male face of the Calvin Collection campaign 3 seasons in a row, Sweden's finest, Karl has earned himself the kind of visibility that models give their left arm for. Now that's global beauty!

4. Romulo/Wilhelmina

He's the Only Guy for Gucci FW 05 as well as one of the burnished stunners in the Valentino. Put those two clients together and what you have is the very latest Brazilian star on the scene.

5. Shaun DeWet/Next

He's a man of Truth (for Calvin Klein), a former Arena Homme Plus coverboy and the grand recipient of a Hugo Boss exclusive. Of course you glimpsed him first on MDC MOTW platform so now when you see his billboard riding every city street, something about this face will ring with sweet familiarity.
