How discovered:
It was during my summer holiday and I was working during the week for a healthy fast food channel and during the week-end for a bike company. This day, I was riding for a music festival, and a man suddenly cry and run (literally) after me. I stopped and he explained to me that he was a model scout. His name is MAXENCE ORARD and he changed my life, this guy was the first to think that it’s possible to do something with me.

What was your first modeling job?
It was for L’Officiel Hommes Paris, and they made me a favor, they came just after my course at university and took me to the shoot. I was a little bit nervous but the team was really cool.

Favorite things:
The best things for me are my bike, and my camera, I can’t live without them.

What are you listening to at the moment?
Myth Syzer and Bon Gamin, which is a French rap brand, some American classics as NAS, Tupac, and some British rap as Loyle Carner or Reijie Snow.

Favorite movie, tv show:
Larry Clark’s Kids. TV show: Narcos, Stranger Things.

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:
I can’t say a name in particular, but this season, I had love Louis Vuitton show, and Lanvin collection. I actually use Dior Sauvage. No products.

What were you doing before modeling?
I am at University in economics but I have time for modeling, my teachers are very cool with that.

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?
Finish my studies and go around the world for chill.

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?
Eat some kebabs with my G’s, it’s a part of my culture right now.

Favorite modeling experience so far?
It was for Lanvin show, the team was so cool with me, and they gave me two looks. The guys were fun too, I made some friends there, it was incredible.

What’s the best thing about your hometown/country?
Really hard to explain, I have a special feeling with this city. The only thing that I know, it’s when I’m far, I really happy to come back.

Which brand would you really love to model for?
I think Nike but more as a lifestyle collaboration, because I love their sneakers.

Place you would love to visit:
I think Australia, or New Zealand, for the way of life.

Currently you’re obsessed with/about:
Photography, I just want to finish my projects.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
I don’t have any special advice, they are all common, the best way in life is to stay humble and thank life for every single thing that it gives to you.
