After a resounding 29 years in the industry, iconic model Tony Ward's still got it. 10 Men Magazine has used the 47-year-old model for an all Tony Ward issue, with almost every single page dedicated to the character-stretching chameleon.
Tony Ward uses his jovial personality, offbeat poses and humorous facial expressions to create this fun-loving and eye catching editorial for 10 Men Magazine, which was photographed by Richard Burbridge. Ward even shows off his feminine side, donning high heels.
