Along with Imaan Hamman he’s one half of “Modeling\u2019s New Super Couple”, but Naleye<\/a> Junior Dolmans is becoming known fast for his insouciant, throwback personal style as well as his globally eclectic beauty (for the record, his heritage is Dutch\/Vietnamese\/Somali). Below he chats to us about the future and the trials and tribulations of being a male model.<\/p>\n

What’s the most difficult thing about being really, really good looking? And the easiest?<\/strong>
\nI guess people expect you to look great, but most of the time you just don’t want to care. I want to BE a great person and not just look like one.<\/p>\n

Describe your idea of a perfect day:<\/strong>
\nToday is actually a perfect day.
\nI am in Barbados, par-uh-dahys!! We have an extra day off and will do absolutely nothing, except a few emails.<\/p>\n

What worries you the most about the future?<\/strong>
\nThat climate change really is an issue and people don’t seem to get it.
\nIn most parts of the world we have internet. Educate yourself. We can search anything we don’t know much about.<\/p>\n

If you never needed to work again, what would you spend your time doing?<\/strong>
\nI’m not sure if I’ll ever stop working. I love product design and development, there is always a way to stay creative. If one day I could work less, I would spend more time together with my family.<\/p>\n

You’re a well-dressed guy. Who or what has influenced your style?<\/strong>
\nEverything, everybody, everywhere… I get inspired by everyone and everything I come across.<\/p>\n

What tip would you give guys out there who want to be more stylish?<\/strong>
\nWear clothes that express who you are and how you feel. Be inspired by your favorite characters in life and movies.<\/p>\n

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?<\/strong>
\n“We are each of us angels with one wing. we can only fly embracing each other.”
\na quote by Luciano De Crescenzo, a Italian writer from Naples.<\/p>\n

Give some advice:<\/strong>
\n“It is never too late to save the world, there is no choice between a green economy and mass extinction”
\na quote by Vivienne Westwood.<\/p>\n
