I have a strong belief that the projects you choose to do or are a part of are direct links to your own creativity...and Ethan James is probably one of my favorite models because of just that. He's appeared in and has worked with virtually everything/everyone I admire: Vogue Italia (shot by Steven Meisel), V-Man (styled by Tom van Dorpe), the face of Paul Smith (2010), and has walked for Robert Geller, Ann Demuelemeester, Damir Doma, Dior Homme, and YSL to name a few. Perhaps a reason why his body of work reads so consistently is that he is also a budding photographer (view his work here) with an edited eye for artistic beauty. 

Take a look through some of my favorite images of him that are somehow always on my mood board. He's up there on my list of people to work with alongside Carl Barnett, Tom van Dorpe, Damon Baker, Willy Vanderperre...I can dream can't I?
