Iulio's look

We saw him from afar, with his 1m75 height, his magnetic demeanor and his false airs of Adam Driver, the very sexy American actor (Marriage Story, Star Wars, etc.).

Iulio, with an alert step, was going with his girlfriend, also an exotic beauty, towards the Galleria Continua to see the exhibition Stuff to do curated by JR.

The young man, 20 years old and with cat's eyes, who until now worked as a freelance model, has just signed with The Face Paris, an agency which recruited him online.

Although the industry was deprived of Fashion Week, that didn't stop him from doing shoots for Make up for ever and emerging brands.

Light weight and fine features, this boy just out of high school says he likes to revisit second-hand clothes like the women's suit he wore that day. This vintage Kenzo piece bought for €150 and adopted immediately “because it has a wow effect!” ".

Not to mention that adapting old clothes to current tastes is a philosophy that appeals to him from an ecological point of view and especially because it's super good for the planet. And then “the advantage with vintage is the absence of exploitation of man and nature even if it remains a business”.

But it's his diverse origins that we got excited about, because Iulio alone is a melting pot with Japanese and Italian origins and years spent in Romania. Which made him proclaim: “I am the first Frenchman in my family”.

While waiting to launch into a business around design and fashion following in the footsteps of his idols Rick Owens and Yohji Yamamoto, he is an English teacher at tutos_me_pro.
