Model: Tom Nicon
I browsed through Kai Z Feng's flickr few days ago and immediately knew I have to post this photo, but unfortunately now it comes with a very sad text. Tom Nicon passed away yesterday in Milano, circumstances are yet unclear. This is a sad day on the modeling scene, he was supposed to walk for top shows like Versace and Burberry in Milano.
Rest in peace Tom, you'll be missed.

Back in early July, the ladies at Purple Lab gave me the rare opportunity to work with world renowned runway coach, Drew Linehan, who gave us tips on how to be the envy of every party and to walk like a supermodel. I may be no Erin Wasson, but by the end of the session, Drew had me walking like a potential supermodel! Check out the footage from Purple Lab’s event and learn the tools of the trade from the man behind the scenes:

“Fashion is very black and white. It doesn’t pay attention to heritage much. They don’t see me as a Dominican girl. They just see the color of my skin. It can be hard, because it’s your heritage and you want to be appreciated for it, but it’s just modeling, so I don’t let it get to me.”
Thanks NY Mag!
