Ah, finally a last name, thanks Gabor! I liked the interview, nice to see that his looks aren't the only intriguing thing about him, fascinating guy. I'm sure we'll be seeing lots of Henry in the future.

Select models put that on their site? Sassy! I love it. Big mistake indeed.

 

[rubyshimmer]

haha that's funny i'm sure every agency has made a similar mistake.

 

[KatJenahMckey]

Fascinating guy. Is he the first black male model to ever walk for Prada?

 

[rubyshimmer]

He and Abiah Hostvedt were the first two models of color to walk for Prada menswear. I'm pretty sure there has been a black female model that has walked for Prada, I just cant remember who right now.

 

[Flashbang]

Wow, now I know why Select made that statement. I never realized there's literally no black models on Prada menswear show

Naomi Campbell back in the 90s and more recently Jourdan Dunn, but there's still obviously a glaring lack of diversity on their runways and in their campaigns.
