The Model: Billy Huxley

Nowadays, it’s difficult to find a model that forges their own style without splashing themselves all over the Mail Online. A model that believes in fashion, gains respectable work and still manages to have a personality. Enter Billy Huxley.
Completely dissimilar to the gaunt runway filler we’re used to, Huxley has secured major campaigns with the likes of ASOS, Burton and Vagabond, along with countless editorial features and even my old office at Surfdome.
So, what’s in an ideal outfit for Huxley? “In general, it would have to be black skinny jeans paired with some Docs, a knit jumper and a double-breasted pea coat”. Classic to the very core.
Although the term rockabilly seems to be somewhat restricting, the beard and tattoo combination has become something of an iconic look in recent years (see Jonathan Daniel Pryce’s 100 Beards project) and Huxley is a key proponent.
An impressive achievement, especially for an individual employed to showcase other styles.
Offering a real insight into what it’s like to work in the industry, Billy is a must-follow on Instagram and Twitter.
