Model Lust : Tony Ward


Anthony Borden Ward, better known as Tony Ward, is an American model, actor, fashion designer, painter, and photographer. Ward was born in Los Angeles and grew up in Santa Cruz [ironically, my favorite and least favorite cities].

Ward began his modelling career in 1983 and achieved fame as an international supermodel, first for Calvin Klein underwear with images by Herb Ritts. Later, he worked with photographers like Karl Lagerfeld, Steven Klein, Steven Meisel, and Terry Richardson and for fashion designers such as Roberto Cavalli, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Diesel, Fendi, H&M, and Hugo Boss. And yes, I did mention he is a fashion designer. He has his own line SixInTheFace "Hand Ravaged Clothing by Mr.Ward".

More recently, Ward is all over the print ads for Dolce & Gabbana [who seems to have the best taste in men]. These images are from Dolce & Gabbana's latest book Uomini, which should be arriving at my door sometime this week! The book features Ward and some of our other favorite Model Lust's like Andres Velencoso and Noah Mills.

Ward was Madonna's boyfriend [someone else who seems to have great taste in men] in the beginning of the 1990s and he appeared in some of her music videos as well as the controversial Sex book in 1992. You can spot him looking all kinds of sexy in the Justify My Love video.

Can you believe Tony Ward is 48 years old? Neither can I.
