Rick (Rico) Genest has been dubbed 'Zombie Boy' thanks to his skeletal tattoos which cover around 80% of his body. The rising model has already appeared alongside Lady Gaga in her 'Born This Way' video and quickly cemented his rise to stardom when Nicola Formichetti used him as his muse for Mugler's last collection. He has also appeared in 'Fashion' magazine alongside Jac Jagaciak for the Summer 2011 issue (see the photos here) and now he has popped up again inside the latest issue of GQ Italia, where he models a range of monochromatic menswear designs.
Photographed by Aline & Jacqueline Tappia and with styling by Peter Cardona, Rico also opens up for an interview inside the issue, talking about his career so far and he also explains how he has become known as 'Zombie Boy'.
