Photographer Mariano Vivanco proved in his calendar shots for Dolce & Gabanna that model David Gandy richly deserves his first name.
Notice something about Gandy in these shots that we don't see in most model portfolios (including most other shots of Gandy), but that's ever-so-lovingly present in Michaelangelo's statue: Just a hint of a belly.
Clearly, Gandy was able to forego the usual non-diet and was allowed to carbo-load and gorge himself just a bit before this photo-shoot to transform himself into the proper form for his oh-so-famous namesake.
Originals for all twelve months and the cover can be found at American Urge. You can also see a Flash slideshow of the shots at D&G's site. It's a 2008 calendar and no longer available at Amazon, but you might find it in a near-remainder bin at a bookstore or fashion outlet. And really... would you be looking at the dates anyway with these pictures above the dates?
(And we'll admit that we did darken Vivanco's subtle shadows in the leaf area just a bit to make the David shot meet our usual self-imposed just-barely SFW standards.)
Bonus very-hot D&G video featuring Gandy and several more D&G models and the song, "Something's Going On":
