AS IT celebrates the launch of its new site (which went live yesterday - take a look), GQ.COM has announced its list of the most important men in British fashion - and the top 100 have been judged on more than just their financial muscle. As well as business acumen, the team has also appraised their creativity and social connections, coming up with a list with some likely suspects - and some more surprising choices.
Sir Philip Green, perhaps unsurprisingly, tops the list for his power and reach followed by Sir Harold Tillman and Selfridges ceo Paul Kelly. Designers Sir Paul Smith, Christopher Bailey and John Galliano also make the top 10, but perhaps more unexpected is the inclusion of Robert Pattison inside the top 5.
"He's today's ultimate male fashion icon," the GQ.COM team says.

Thanks To Gwen for the tip.

Hot, huh? ; )
talk about impregnating stare--
FILTM
hot, thanks Qwen and Kate
GQ Rob is love.
But Rob is not much of a fashion icon.
Oh, our dear hobo <3
meow! damn straight!
That is one damn beautiful man!
FILTM!!!
First of all, nice tip Gwenie!
Second, sigh. Cleaned-up sex god or hobo sex god, all Rob's are good!
FILTM!
:-) smiling here. :-)
Of course he is :)
Thanks Gwen and Kate. I have got 5 plait shirts already. I used to hate plait but I guess those were the days.Does this make him influential?
What a beautiful mess he is.
Nice b&w. I wonder if anyone had said to Rob two years ago - one day you'll be 'the' male fashion icon what he would've said... lol
oh my....
Fashion icon?? Can you imagine he and his buddies laughing their ass off over a couple beers over THIS one? Not that he's not delectable in everything he wears, mind you, (preferably shirtless) but just not the most expected win.
Ok, so I just followed MOTU over to Twilighted and registered...not the easiest site to navigate, is it? Hey, as long as MOTU has a home SOMEWHERE, I am a happy woman.
Fifty + pool = I just put a billiards table on my cred it card.
when does this sweet torture end?
Sorry for the double post, but figured it's freaking MotU!!! It's important! LOL.
O/T, and possibly already mentioned, but Icy had to move MotU to Twilighted.
http://www.twilighted.net/viewstory.php?sid=8511&textsize=0&chapter=71
; ) Caught it on a tweet, wasn't sure if all those reading were aware.
You will need an account to access Twilighted, fyi. Easy.
LOL, VOL! Always thought pool tables were hot---ask me what I think of them now?!! ; )
Well, of course he always looks delectable to me. Not entirely sure that he is a fashion icon when he's on downtime though. He has a very S London ex-public schoolboy look, but I like it ;)
Let's face it, that man could wear anything and still look better than anyone else on the planet.
Gwen, I meant to thank you for this info when you first posted. I went and added it to my faves at Twilighted so that I don't miss an update.
Thank you again!
I agree with Veils, I much prefer ff.net to Twilighted but what are we to do.
Whenever I see an especially lovely pic of His Holy Hotness my toes curl up. I need a pair of Arabian slippers to make my feet more comfortable.
Oh and GQ? 'Most influential man in fashion' my eye: 'most influential man guaranteed to get us millions of hits on our new website' more like.
Cynic? Moi?
But they do have a lovely back catalogue of photos, I seem to recall...
Have now faffed around and followed MotU over to Twilighted.net. Liked the layout better at ff but needs must. Cannot live without my fix of Fifty.
Gwen. It is MotU!! And it IS IMPORTANT!
Thanks for letting us know! I'm all signed up to Twilighted!
trolls = fifty shades!
Oh and Rob should be number 1 on the GQ list! Hot stuff!!
@ Gwen...yes, thank you hon for the MOTU info earlier in the day. Regarding pool tables...god, YEARS ago I used to be really decent...I think it's time I brushed up on my skills...challenge Mr. Pattinson to a little one-on-one.
Teach him to take his pool stick and land those balls in the side pocket.
Oops. Wait. This isn't the Friday night free-for-all forum yet, is it? Dang.
Just deleted the post I was about to send when I realised that I had turned into a troll. Is it infectious like swine flu? Do I need to be put in quarantine? Can I nominate Rob to mop my brow, please?
Veils: I've always thought that a pool table, being a nice solid piece of furniture would be a good thing, but I'd be worried about the drop. You know, where the hard edge of the table meets the baize, there's always a drop of about an inch and a half?
RRRRRRRRiveting..love the pic tho. Rob sure influences ME :) Love the black pants with the blue thread-on the crotch. FIERCE!!!
Plain and simply Rob is today's ultimate male!
FILTM
OMG this picture is wonderful
I <3 this man.
sigh.............I have broken out the flannel that I had in the back of my closet because of this man...;)
He is looking particularly tasty in this pic :-)
So very handsome and sexy. :)
@Gwen, thanks for the tip on MoTU, I wasn't aware they had moved, I would not have been a "happy camper" if I couldn't finish this story...it owns me!!!! So do a lot of other FF, but this is one of my favorites....LOVE Fifty!!!
He is #1 on my list
He's so handsome in that picture...*sigh*
oh wow!he really looks good in everything even on recycled shirts and pants haha!love you rob!!
oh wow!he really looks good in everything even on recycled shirts and pants haha!love you rob!!
They are so right. No matter what he wears it is the long lanky body that can wear anything well. He is definitely a style icon. Love the picture.
I am so having issues getting sign into twilighted!
You have to register is two places and it's rejecting everything I try ...
Sob.... am I stoooopid? Has MoTU updated?
Did you get it figured out rpg?
He's so aaaaahhhhhhhhh
Takes my breath away.
Thanks for the MotU tip Gwen. Just registered at Twilighted.
;-)
RPG, no update.
Hiya, all! No, RPG, it's still at Chapter 71, sending emails...Mrs R.
Just spent an hour chasing updates to and from ff to Twilighted myself.
Ugh! Stupid Effing Trolls.
Can I say just how much that picture makes me melt?
Jinx ADM, lol.
The more I think about it, the more this crazy "fic-witch-hunt" seems more like book banning. Anyone else?
Need to assemble a posse and "ride those trolls right outta Dodge".
*waves hello!*
How's everyone tonight?
Martini - I'm melting with you...
Rob stops my world ;)
just logged in for the night...
gwen - i just signed up for twilighted.net and how do you get them email updates??? i am not very good at this stuff, i am computer illiterate.
RPG, try closing the browser and then going back in. I vaguely recall some kind of issue (or time lag?) from when I created my account to when I could sign in.
If it helps...
Hi angie! I watched How To Be tonight!
Hi Ana, Hi Gwen!
Hi Martini!!!
Gwen - ok when you add it to your favorites and submit, is that it??? i think i figured it out.
but i didnt register twice, was i supposed to?????
PLEASE HELP!!!!
Hi Martini!
Didn't you just love HTB?? I watched 4 times before sending it back to netflix. Think I'll be buying it soon.
I <3 Art!
Hiya Ana!
Ana, you only have to register twice if you want to be involved in the forums I think. If you just want the stories, then you only have to register once I believe.
@ana--that's what i did too. it was in my fav stories. i don't know how we get notified of updates. does it email? LOL not real good with that stuff
From the Help section at Twilighted:
Very Important: You need to register for a SEPARATE User ID and Password to log in to the Forums. The log in on the front page is for the Archive (Stories) ONLY! Click on "Forums" in the Main Menu to visit that section of the site.
Art was so sweet and everyone was so horrible to him!!!!
duh-but what would the forums be?? like blogging?
I think like a message board, or blogging I would guess.
What's up ladies?
Ugh, RL kicked my butt today.
What are we talking about tonight?
Okay, for Twilighted email updates, first you have to add the story to favorites (click add as favorite, THEN you get asked again and you have to hit "submit", lol).
Double-check your "edit preferences" and make sure you have that tiny box checked for "Contact when favorites are updated". And make sure you have your email addy in your "edit bio" info!
Yeah, just had to do all of this...
Hey there CL. So far, I'm entranced by the pic with this post. Makes me all soft and warm and chocolately feeling. :o)
ok cool, i wont do the forums just want to read the stories. thank you all for you help.
Thank you girls, I'll try that..
If you want to verify your favs, check Account Info and it brings up a list so you can see what you've got in there...
It's similar to ff.net, but just a bit "scattered about", imo. And that verify/submit thing for favs got me. Twice.
End PSA. ; )
I don't know how they were all so mean to sweet Art.
how many stories have switched over ??? ep was changed to her blog, that's the only other that i know that changed.
@CL
Uh.....Monday is MARCH 1st. Oh Jesus, aren't you beyond excited about RM!!! I've got to check my theater listings for the 12th, because I am SO there after work. I will be good for absolutely nothin'!!!!
YAY! CL is here!!
MotU moved to Twilighted.net
We're all getting registered there
PS, did anyone see (or freaking comment on) the story banner AND the eye-popping gif for MotU????
Speechless.
(How can you pause a gif? LOL.)
i'm reading edward wallbanger and just got to the part where she saw his jaw--he gives great jaw--i laughed out loud and my family looked at me like-what?? LOL
thanks, qwen, i don't think i saved mine right. i hit submit but not the rest
evening ladies--RL for a bit then i'll be back--what shall we discuss tonight?
Art's parents were HORRID!!! I just wanted to give him a big hug!
LOL! ITA Martini - ((((group hug)))
for Art
;)
Did no one see him in hp? Did these people not recognize red hottness even in a young form? I could see the intelligence in his eyes when he said his lines in that movie, I could see in his face he was figuring things out...and not just his lines either. I knew he was going to be a force to be reckoned with and I was right...I'm going to go to school to get my masters degree in entertainment mgmt. 'eh. I think I would be good at it since that's all I've ever done all my life is pick and choose the ones who would have staying power. And I've ever rarely been wrong.
on a different subject has anyone else had any trouble signing up for an acct. over at Twilighted? I can't get in there with a pick in the lock! god it 's difficult to sign up over there and the last couple of chap's of motu is up over there to read not at fanfiction.net...because of tos or some dumb thing. anyway just wondered if anyone else can get 'in' there or are you having a hard time too?
Yeah Gwen - that banner.... hheheheheheh
@angie
Wheelbarrow ready???
yeah, CL and ang are in the house--how excited are you. i'm excited for you too obviously because today i was going to preorder new moon at target. the kid asked me when it came out and i told him this weekend--he looked it up and said not till the 20th. then i remembered what was happening--what a dork!
wen - did wallbanger move over there too??? or are you just reading it for the first time?
Ana, so far, found UofEM and IDBiV. HA is there, but only up to Ch 17, not ff's 31. (Don't get me started on that last chapter! ARGH! Stupidward!)
Still going through my list---sounds like many of the NC-17 (M!) stories will have to move as those appear to be the one's most targeted.
From TOS:
"Please note FanFiction.Net does not accept explicit content,..." yada, yada, yada.
Yay!! (((((Group Hugs)))) for Art!!!!
ok i am really excited about RM too, so i have it planned to take an extra long lunch that day or just leave work early to go see it becuase it's really hard for me to get a babysitter to see "adult" movies. i dragged my son to see NM but i cant take him to see this. so i have a plan to say that i have a doctors appt. OH, WHAT WE DO FOR ROB LOL.
i'm reading wallbanger forthe first time it was still there
lmjabara - oh, yeah I noticed him in HP...that is how I recognized him in Twilight "that's the guy that played Cedric" my friend just laughed at me
jc- wheelbarrow locked and loaded baby!! OMG!!! Can. Not. Wait!
angie - you got all your supplies? Video camera? heheh
gwen - HA last chapter really pissed me off, i was like what are you thinking edward...kick her out of your room and quit doing that shit. but you knew it was going to happen.
This is not my life - is sooo good, so suspenseful, it is literally killing me.
Right now i am reading "the muse" i really like it so far.
Yep, our favorite Banger is there too! ; )
Wens, I stayed up until 3 or 4 am, back around Christmas, reading that, literally crying TEARS from laughing so hard! Clive!
@ana--i'm leaving early for RM too--that's the only day my husband can pick the kids up. for NM, i pulled my daughter out of school for an"appointment" she almost got in trouble when she went to the dance that night--but he is worth it isn't he? LOL
@qwen--clive is pretty funny--he was just tring to get to purina--lol
Martini - supplies- check!
my friend is bringing the camera that takes HD video - she has been informed of her most important job!
:)
just got all tingly thinking about ROBSTOCK!!!
@Gwen - OH man Clive and Purina!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I am so excited for you guys!!! I hope ROBSTOCK is a complete success!
Sorry, f-ing RL is killing me today.
@JC - So excited I am about to pee my pants.
@Ang - WE LEAVE IN 4 DAYS!!!
@Martini - Chocolate sounds good...
@CL - sorry about RL. :o( Hope it gets better.
I gots me some pepperminty chocolate here!
Holy Cow you guys are killing me with the ff. I can't keep up!
so far I have finished Alphabet Weekends, I'm working on Wide Awake and I'm up to date on MotU and Laid Bare...
and I have so many more on my list that I just can't start yet!
ohhh martini? watched How To Be tonight!'
how'd you like the 'lyin' on his gf's bed looking up into the camera' Rob? Did ya notice the beard on his chin? the stubble was just so on his incredible, edible chin! His brows were furrowed just enough to give him that look. You know the one? where you just want to curl into his side and tell him to 'tell Mama all about Sweetheart! Did someone hurt your feelings?' And then deck whomever did it! You know that look. God I love this man. He is the destroyer of a womans heart unless I find another distraction soon...I'm gonna die from the explosion outward of my chest just like in Alien! My heart jumping out on the table grabbing it's own throat and strangling from lack of the Rob love. I know, I know, wayyyy tooo dramatic...or is it? Can you be with Robert? Love the bear in that shot. Love it and he's what 19 during How To Be? anyone know for sure how old he was when He shot that movie? God he was really yummy during the filming. Otherworldly looking he was so beautiful.
well i have to leave for the night, RL just gets in the way too much :))
so because of this story change..if anyone gets notices of updates please let us all know so we can look them up.
good night to all and sweet rob dreams, and a little bit of "fifty" dreams too :))
(((hugs))) to CL
my RL day sucked too...
just keep thinking 4 more days...OMFG!
He was great! I *loved* that shot on his gf bed. I just wanted to give Art a hug through that whole movie.
Night Ana!
CL & Angie, remember your Robstock 2010 Ground Support Team! ; )
We're here for you! (And we want PICTURES of ROB!!!!)
Oh, yes, we do.
Have you ladies noticed that there is just too much RL getting in the way of Rob, ROBSTOCK and Rob porn? What has this world come to?
Are you guys tweeting Robstock somewhere? Let us know!
Gwen, thank you so much for pointing out the select to be notified box. As you said that site is scattered.
@night Ana
Yep, Fifty spanks some ff booty!!
OH MY GOD!!!
Does everyone know how I asked Annie to make me a JawPorn/SideBurnPorn Rob video???? Well she did, and it is (sorry Gozde, but I need to swear) FUCKING AMAZING.
Check it out....and she has a shout out to me at the end. ;-) AnnieforPatty you are a wonder. I think you might give Biel a run for her money.

On my way...
Holy Hottness Batman! I've never seen that photo before. Wow!
RPG: did you get a Twilighted account running? The site is a painful maze, took me several monikers linked to different emails before I got a confirmed account.
For those just signing up: if the black background bothers you, go into My Account then Edit Preferences and switch to the white backdrop.
Here's a goofy treat for anyone who got kicked in the butt by RL today.... Rob's reaction to being named a fashion icon!

Thank you for the information on "MotU" from FF. I love reading about "FIFTY". Why do some get removed and others don't? I loved "THE OFFICE" and miss reading that story.
Can I ask which one is IDBIV. If you have time-Thanks.
I stay up all hours of the night reading FF. I love it.
