In addition to sharing the glow-in-the-dark V Magazine cover with Natalia Vodianova, Luke Grimes is featured inside the magazine in a sailor-inspired photo shoot by [Mario Testino](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles).

In the photo shoot, Luke Grimes is styled by Beat Bolliger in [sailor inspired fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-x-uniqlo) from D & G and Jean-Paul Gaultier.

But who is Luke Grimes? According to the article, “Luke Grimes is the biggest movie star you’ve never heard of.”

Apart from his recent stint in the popular TV show "Brothers & Sisters," Luke Grimes has shot a few movies over the past couple years; for some reason, their release keeps getting delayed.

“I think one day before I die, I might have a movie come out,” Luke Grimes playfully says of his misfortune.
