The Industry's managing director, Courtney Blackman says, 'The contemporary architecture makes for the perfect backdrop for our David Gandy meeting. We have consistently brought in the best speakers and held our events at world-class venues. It's an honour to be adding both David Gandy and The Condé Nast College to the list.'
David Gandy is the world's only male supermodel. Working with Select Model Management, he has come to epitomise men's luxury fashion worldwide, working as the face of Dolce & Gabbana, other luxury brands and as an official ambassador for London Collections: Men.
He has graced over 20 magazine covers globally in the last 12 months, walked runways around the world and has starred in numerous campaigns, shot by some of the world's most sought after creatives and photographers.
David writes a regular blog for VOGUE.CO.UK, reviews cars for GQ.com and became the first male model to be nominated for Model of the Year at the British Fashion Awards, to appear on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross and the only male model to represent his country in the Olympic Closing Ceremony.
David has shifted perceptions both as a model and as a brand ambassador. As Britain's biggest male modelling export, The Industry invites him to share how his commercial worth has impacted British menswear.
How has his body shape changed the way fashion views male beauty?
How has he pushed the boundaries of male modelling?
Where does he see the men's fashion market going and can it ever be as successful as womenswear?
Based in the heart of Soho at 16-17 Greek Street, near to Vogue House, The Condé Nast College of Fashion & Design - the newly launched academic hub of fashion, offers two undergraduate-level courses and is developing a broad portfolio of vocational and academic programmes including masters level provision.
