NEW model Karl Morrall's last two weeks have been the stuff of every model agent's dreams: two weeks ago the 21-year-old Liverpudlian worked in Morrisons supermarket, and this week he took to the Prada catwalk. Morrall saw Premier's offices on the Channel 4 series The Model Agency and decided to pop in whilst on a visit to London.
"It is so exciting and incredibly rare to see a model this new, achieve so much and cause so much of a stir just two weeks after having signed to an agency," men's agent Sadaf Butt d'Orleans told us. "There are so many new models on the scene every season during men's fashion week which makes the competition so fierce. Most boys have had a few test shoots or have modelled for a while before achieving success like this, but with Karl it's been so quick we've hardly had time to blink!"
Morrall was chosen to walk exclusively for the Italian label - an honour bestowed on someone the brand is especially excited about, and a great indicator of the coming season's face to watch. And, having already shot with GQ and i-D, how did Morrall perform on his catwalk debut?
"He really has shined out there," his agent told us. "He is so excited and incredibly humble about it all, which makes him all the more special. His face is like a blank canvas - perfect for almost any brands - which is why I'm certain he will have a very successful career. I'm so excited about what the future holds for Karl."
