GQ COVERS: The 2010s

The GQ covers of the Obama Era captured wider trends in the culture. The cast of men and women profiled by the magazine grew more diverse, and they often reflected the ways in which pop culture, music, fashion and sports intersected and overlapped, as with Pharrell, Shia, LeBron, Drake, and Kanye. Style-wise, tie bars and pocket squares made a comeback. A quintessential cover from the Teens might feature a man named Ryan (Reynolds and/or Gosling) or Justin (Theroux and/or Timberlake) in a slim-cut suit, looking effortlessly and unselfconsciously handsome.

GQ COVERS: The 2000s

Through the Bush Years Part 2 were a serious time in America, the cover of GQ loosened up during this decade, thanks to the playful eye of design director Fred Woodward, who joined GQ from Rolling Stone in 2001. The color palette grew bolder, and the G crept up on the Q in the logo. The clothes the guys wore took a casual turn, with collars unbuttoned and ties pulled open. And the style of photography changed, too. Cover subjects were increasingly captured in moments that were less traditional and posed, much sexier (see Jennifer Aniston, Adriana Lima, and a smoldering Clive Owen), and frequently played for comedy (see Will Ferrell, Seth Rogen, and a smoldering Sacha Baron Cohen).
