Born in Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada.
Few models have the consistency and longevity of the iconic Simon Nessman. Since his start in 2007, the Canadian superstar has shown up on nearly every runway and in every magazine imaginable, not to mention his countless campaigns for the likes of Givenchy, Calvin Klein, Versace, Ralph Lauren, and D&G. The soft-spoken surfer is one of the few male models who can safely be said to have crossed over into the mainstream, his face recognizable from numerous billboards and magazine pages and even Madonna's "Girl Gone Wild" video. His position at the top of the industry was cemented with the launch of his multiyear contract as the face of Giorgio Armani's Acqua di Giò Essenza, in a stunning black-and-white photo by the legendary Bruce Weber. His run of six seasons as the face of Michael Kors proved that he has many loyal fans in the industry.
