Asian Male Models
The new Asia has been forming for some time now. The most appealing growth, has been in luxury goods consumption. In fact, Asia-Pacific saw a 33.5 percent rise in market growth. So what else are we seeing on our shores of Europe? Is there room in the industry for Asian male models? YES. The exciting growth of Asian models being seen in Europe is just warming up. I’ve travelled to Asia many times and I love everything it has to offer. An eye opener for me was Asian’s love and obsession of European fashion and design. It’s incredible and infectious to all those around, to see and watch. If it’s one big live European catwalk on our Asian streets you are after, then its your lucky day.
Asian Models To Watch Out For
Godfrey Gao
He has his unique screen name and the title of first Asian spokesperson for Louis Vuitton under his belt. The Taiwanese-Malaysian Canadian model was initially an actor.
Paolo Roldan
His fame catapulted after his nude spread in Vogue Paris. He also appeared in the Givenchy and the Filipino-Canadian is represented by Boss New York.
Daniel Liu
He gives rise to the boy-next-door image. His cheekbones give him a very angular look and he has worked for Ford Models. The Taiwanese-American has been featured in Target and Uniqlo campaigns.
Philip Huang
He is a California-born Taiwanese-American who has been featured in Kenzo, Tommy Hilfiger, and Lord and Taylor campaigns. He is shorter than the average male model at (a still very tall) 6 feet, but the top labels such as Dries van Noten, Valentino, and Gucci love him.
David Chiang
He is the winner of Men Style Fashion stylish man of the year 2012 award, very very prestigious – we say. Is another hot, up and coming Asian model. David is being loved, watched and adored by all labels. With hair like his who wouldn’t want him?!
It makes perfect sense that Asian models are being shown and used in that top European labels. I thought it was right and fair to show and encourage, that style belongs to all parts of the world. So to our Asian counterparts; be inspired and decide for yourself, what trends you follow this coming winter and new year. Considering Men Style Fashion’s third biggest followers are from Asia. And that David Chiang was voted the “Most stylish man of the year 2012” in our recent competition, we can’t wait to see what lies ahead in Asian fashion, let alone Asian male modelling for Europe.
