That's Jethro, Not Nick!

We were perusing Ponystep today, wandering around the live gigs and Euro parties that the site either covers or promotes itself when we came across a shoot of one of our favourite Aussies Jethro Cave. The Melbournian, whom we featured in Black Issue 5 and more recently on The Black Eye, is garnering much attention in European fashion circles. He recently shot with Hedi Slimane and Nicola Formichetti, walked for Balenciaga and Charles Anastase among others. It seems the drums are beating for him and not just because he is the son of Nick. We discovered when we interviewed him a couple of years back that he wasn't really interested in talking about Dad (and why should he we say) and as this snippet of the Ponystep i/v attests, not much has changed.

Ponystep: OK, we just have to mention your father. We do. Be honest, how annoying is it when this happens, what are his thoughts on what you do and what's the usual reaction you get when people find out who he is?

JC: You’re right. It is really annoying.

Jethro is a musician, performer and artist in his own right but as you can see he is also, in a model sense at least, pretty damn hot!
