DETAILS

Swiss mister Jan hails from the city of Bern, but was scouted on the other side of the world in Perth, Western Australia. Studying Down Under for 12 months as an exchange student, Jan sent some photos into Vivien’s Model Management and was signed on the spot. Rosy cheeked and boyishly handsome, Jan’s got just a few digitals and a video to his name so far, but that’s enough to tell that he’s got what it takes. Wait and see!

Jan Aeberhard was born in Switzerland but was scouted travelling on a gap year across the other side of the world in Australia.

He has been modelling part-time since the summer of 2012 and goes full-time in July after completing his compulsory military training.

Jan landed his first campaign in Autumn 2013 for A.P.C alongside Barbara Palvin and in January 2014 walked exclusively for Versace. His editorial credits include VMAN, WWD and Wonderland Magazine.

Jan is quickly transforming from a boy into very striking young man and we can’t wait to watch his career develop over the coming months!
