Jack Guinness talks London, style and the most 'fashion' thing he's ever heard

GQ called him the ‘Coolest Man in Britain’, and before his latest career move the model, DJ and actor Jack Guinness worked for fashion houses including Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana.

A year ago the man-about-town, who is friends with Daisy Lowe and Alexa Chung, also launched The Queer Bible, an online publication for queer writers and illustrators, a passion project that's helped him get up to speed on what he terms “gay history.”

“I wanted to create a place that was as fun, beautiful and dynamic as the gay community," Jack told us, "so selfishly I was just making the Queer Bible for me - that was the starting point. But now everyone loves it just as much as I do. I’m sharing other people’s stories, so I learn just as much as everyone else from it.”

So what’s next? There’s a Queer Bible coffee table book in pipeline, plus a whole roster of live Queer Bible events scheduled for 2019.

He's also in the process of creating his very own bespoke winter cocktail menu, coming soon to the bar.... at his house.

"The bar sounds a lot grander then it is. In reality it’s like a rubbish 1970’s bar. It’s great to have one in your house but it's also dangerous."
