MODEL CITIZEN: I was saving this for when he finally moves his ass to Oregon, but another website beat me to the punch (which is really weird considering how long ago this photo was shot).

Well anyways, yes, that is actor Matthew Fox wrapped in an Espirit towel in the upper left corner of the page.

And, yes, I've saved the image from when it originally printed in the August 1987 issue of Interview magazine.

Now, I didn't save this because I thought someday Fox would become the foxy star of Party of Five and Lost. I just stored it away with some so-called "cool" images and never thought twice about it. So it was kind of weird/surprising that I came across it when I was plowing through a box full of clipped out images.

To set the record straight, it was not, as indicated by L.A. Rag Mag, for an Esprit Bath & Bed campaign.

It was just part of Interview's four-page home furnishings spread, entitled "Towel Boys," featuring beautiful lads wrapped in nothing but towels including Fox and then model but soon to be fashion designer John Bartlett as well as one-hit wonder/party boy Paul Lekakis and I think one of the dudes from the original 90210. It was shot by scene-making shooter Christopher Makos.

Wonder if Makos kept any of the takes of Fox after he dropped the towel lying around his darkroom? Hmmmm....
