The magazine ''Apparel Arts'' was launched in 1931 in the [[United States]]<ref name=Sterlacci101>{{Cite book|title=The A to Z of the Fashion Industry| last=Sterlacci| first=Francesca| author2=Joanne Arbucklee|year=2009| publisher=Scarecrow Press| location=Lanham, MD| isbn=978-0810870468| page=101| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=zPKScm9h6v0C&pg=PA101| access-date=July 16, 2013}}</ref> as a men's fashion magazine for the clothing trade, aimed primarily at wholesale buyers and retail sellers. Initially it had a very limited print run and was aimed solely at industry insiders to enable them to advise their customers. The popularity of the magazine among retail customers, who often took the magazine from the retailers, spurred the creation of ''[[Esquire (magazine)|Esquire]]'' magazine in 1933.<ref>{{Cite news| url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/Esquire-American-magazine| title=Esquire {{!}} American magazine| work=Encyclopedia Britannica| access-date=March 6, 2018| language=en| archive-date=August 1, 2017| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170801184937/https://www.britannica.com/topic/Esquire-American-magazine| url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news| url=http://dkcnews.com/esquire-blog-draft/| title=History of Eire Magazine| date=May 21, 2015| work=DKC| access-date=March 6, 2018| language=en-US| archive-date=March 6, 2018| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180306202636/http://dkcnews.com/esquire-blog-draft/| url-status=live}}</ref>
''Apparel Arts'' continued until 1957 when it was transformed into a quarterly magazine for men, which was published for many years by Esquire Inc.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.philsp.com/data/data140.html|title=Magazine Data, page 140: Gentlemen's Quarterly|access-date=January 13, 2009|archive-date=October 12, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201012091745/http://www.philsp.com/data/data140.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Apparel was dropped from the logo in 1958 with the spring issue after nine issues, and the name ''Gentlemen's Quarterly'' was established.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/GQ| title=GQ: American magazine| work=[[Encyclopædia Britannica]]| access-date=August 22, 2017| language=en| archive-date=August 22, 2017| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170822184945/https://www.britannica.com/topic/GQ| url-status=live}}</ref>
''Gentlemen's Quarterly'' was re-branded as ''GQ'' in 1967.<ref name=Sterlacci101/> The rate of publication was increased from quarterly to monthly in 1970.<ref name=Sterlacci101/> In 1979 [[Condé Nast]] bought the publication, and editor [[Art Cooper]] changed the course of the magazine, introducing articles beyond fashion and establishing ''GQ'' as a general men's magazine in competition with ''Esquire''.<ref>{{cite news |date=February 16, 1979 |title=Condé buys a men's magazine |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1979/02/16/archives/advertising-conde-buys-a-mens-magazine.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191222172150/https://www.nytimes.com/1979/02/16/archives/advertising-conde-buys-a-mens-magazine.html |archive-date=December 22, 2019 |access-date=December 22, 2019 |work=The New York Times |issn=0362-4331}}</ref>
[[Nonnie Moore]] was hired by ''GQ'' as fashion editor in 1984, having served in the same position at [[Mademoiselle (magazine)|''Mademoiselle'']] and ''[[Harper's Bazaar]]''. Jim Moore, the magazine's fashion director at the time of her death in 2009, described the choice as unusual, observing that "She was not from men's wear, so people said she was an odd choice, but she was actually the perfect choice". Jim Moore also noted that she changed the publication's more casual look: "She helped dress up the pages, as well as dress up the men, while making the mix more exciting and varied and approachable for men."<ref>{{cite news| title=Nonnie Moore, Fashion Editor at Magazines, Dies at 87| first=Dennis| last=Hevesi| date=February 24, 2009| access-date=February 26, 2009| url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/25/business/media/25moore.html| work=[[The New York Times]]| archive-date=April 17, 2009| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090417100815/http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/25/business/media/25moore.html| url-status=live}}</ref>
''GQ'' has been closely associated with [[metrosexual]]ity. The writer [[Mark Simpson (journalist)|Mark Simpson]] coined the term in an article for British newspaper ''[[The Independent]]'' about his visit to a ''GQ'' exhibition in London: "The promotion of metrosexuality was left to the men's style press, magazines such as [[The Face (magazine)|''The Face'']], ''GQ'', ''Esquire'', [[Arena (magazine)|''Arena'']] and ''[[FHM]]'', the new media which took off in the Eighties and is still growing ... They filled their magazines with images of narcissistic young men sporting fashionable clothes and accessories. And they induced other young men to study them with a mixture of envy and desire."<ref>{{cite news| last=Simpson| first=Mark| date=November 15, 1994| title=Here Come the Mirror Men| work=The Independent| location=London}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Safire|first=William|date=December 7, 2003|title=On Language; Metrosexual|language=en-US|newspaper=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/07/magazine/the-way-we-live-now-12-7-03-on-language-metrosexual.html|access-date=May 24, 2020|issn=0362-4331|archive-date=November 18, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201118084639/https://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/07/magazine/the-way-we-live-now-12-7-03-on-language-metrosexual.html|url-status=live}}</ref> The magazine has expanded its coverage beyond lifestyle issues.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sabrinaerdely.com/docs/TheCreepWithTheGoldenTongue.pdf |title=The Creep with the Golden Tongue  |website=sabrinaerdely.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170209061824/http://www.sabrinaerdely.com/docs/TheCreepWithTheGoldenTongue.pdf |archive-date=2017-02-09 | url-status=live}}</ref> ''GQ'' has been called the "holy text of [[woke]] capital" by ''[[The Spectator]]''.<ref>{{cite news| title=GQ is a holy text of woke capital| first=Ben| last=Sixsmith| date=October 19, 2019| access-date=2024-01-06| url=https://thespectator.com/topic/gq-holy-text-woke-capital/| work=[[The Spectator]]| archive-date=2024-01-06| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240106193823/https://thespectator.com/topic/gq-holy-text-woke-capital/| url-status=live}}</ref>

== Controversies ==
=== ''Glee'' controversy ===
=== Russian apartment bombings ===
''GQ''{{'}}s September 2009 U.S. magazine published, in its "backstory" section, an article by [[Scott Anderson (novelist)|Scott Anderson]], "None Dare Call It Conspiracy". Before ''GQ'' published the article, an internal email from a Condé Nast lawyer referred to it as "Vladimir Putin's Dark Rise to Power".<ref>{{cite journal| journal=GQ| title=None Dare Call It Conspiracy| author=Anderson, Scott| date=September 2009|page=246}}</ref> The article reported Anderson's investigation of the 1999 [[Russian apartment bombings]], and included interviews with [[Mikhail Trepashkin]] who investigated the bombings while he was a [[colonel]] in Russia's [[Federal Security Service]].
The story, including Trepashkin's own findings, contradicted the Russian Government's official explanation of the bombings and criticized [[Vladimir Putin]], the [[President of Russia]].<ref name="NPR 2009-09-04"/>
Condé Nast's management tried to keep the story out of Russia. It ordered executives and editors not to distribute that issue in Russia or show it to "Russian government officials, journalists or advertisers".<ref name="NPR 2009-09-04"/> Management decided not to publish the story on ''GQ''{{'}}s website or in Condé Nast's foreign magazines, not to publicize the story, and asked Anderson not to syndicate the story "to any publications that appear in Russia".<ref name="NPR 2009-09-04">{{cite episode| url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=112530364| title=Why 'GQ' Doesn't Want Russians To Read Its Story| author=Folkenflik, David| author-link=David Folkenflik| series=[[Morning Edition]]| network=[[NPR]]| date=September 4, 2009| access-date=July 16, 2020| archive-date=September 5, 2009| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090905201656/http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=112530364| url-status=live}}</ref>

=== Criticism of the Bible and Western literary canon ===

=== Karol G's photo retouching ===
On April 6, 2023, the Colombian singer [[Karol G]] took to social media to share that the photo used was "disrespectful" and a misleading depiction of the way her body and face naturally looks. She wrote: "I don't know how to start this message. Today my GQ magazine cover was made public, a cover with an image that does not represent me. My face doesn't look like that, my body doesn't look like that and I feel very happy and comfortable with how I look naturally." "It's disrespectful to me.
