If the Spring menswear shows have a reckoning face, it belongs to British newcomer Sol Goss. Lanky, pouty, and with a look that crosses boundaries of race and gender, Goss has inadvertently tapped into fashion’s current obsessions. The response from casting directors and designers has been overwhelming, with Goss landing on the runway for J.W. Anderson, Alexander McQueen, Prada, and Burberry, and in a coup de grâce, opening Louis Vuitton.
Landing on an important runway is impressive for any new model, but for Goss, the transition from Norwich, England, resident to Vuitton opener has seemed almost surreal. “I still can’t wrap my head around it all because about a month ago, I was working in a call center,” Goss says “I’m so grateful to be doing something I thoroughly enjoy, and I understand that it doesn’t last long, so I have to make the most of it!”
