David reflects on a career spanning more than 20 years in the modelling industry, his experiences defying expectations, and how he has reshaped the industry.
David Gandy is known as one of the most successful male fashion models of all time, having worked with brands such as Hugo Boss, Dolce & Gabbana and Carolina Herrera. Taking a big risk when leaving university early with only 2 modules left to complete, David entered the modelling industry. Jake and Damian explore how David’s risk taking became a pivotal factor in shaping his successful career. Throughout his career, David sought advice from models such as Naomi Campbell on the best way to develop and to secure himself a global brand.
Challenging the negative perceptions of male models became a focus throughout David’s career. He shares with Jake and Damian how he combats imposter syndrome in new and demanding environments. Whilst delving into the darker elements of the industry, David reflects on his experiences with loneliness and depression during his most successful years, sharing his method for turning a negative situation into a positive.
This episode goes beyond the glamour of the fashion world, revealing the strategic thinking and resilience that fuelled David’s journey to redefine the male modelling landscape.

    Never fit anywhere? Come on David, you know the word, the natural status!! By the way, after you showed your home, your tastes for furniture, used/ antiques/ modern, you are a "proto-sygma" male. Not giving an F.. to Alfa, Beta, but to your very own environment as physical or sexual or politic...or architectural...
