Hey there. This is for guys who live in North East England. It's a long shot asking on here but worth a go - I'm in a bit of a dilemma!
As many of you know I'm a fashion design student. I specialise in menswear. I am currently making a jacket and I find myself in need of a suitable model for:
a) a photoshoot
b) presenting my jacket at uni
(dates to be confirmed but I would say that it will be in three weeks to one month's time)

The problem is that I can't think of any men in my circle of contacts who quite have the look I'm going for. I based my jacket on 60s skinheads, so if you have no hair or very short/buzzed hair you might have the look I'm going for. The jacket should fit a 38inch chest, but it's a fairly loose cut so if you're a bit smaller or a bit bigger it shouldn't matter too much (I've not made it yet so I'll take a more accurate measurement when it's done!).

The jacket is a donkey jacket, which is grey wool with white leather embellishments. If you are the kind of person who wears grey or black jeans and Doc Martens (or similar boots) styling you would be very easy. :) Ideally you should be 5'10 or taller but if you think you might have the look I'm after I'd really love to hear from you regardless.

I am hoping to do the photoshoot at Steetley Magnesite, which is in Hartlepool. The presentation will be in Newcastle. I can provide transport and payment for your time. Also prints of any photos I take of you, if you want them. :)

Here is a photo of the photoshoot location and also a drawing of the jacket (which is what it will hopefully look like!) img.photobucket.com/albums/v63…

I'm looking for someone confident who won't mind standing like a prat in front of a camera (and who will happily follow directions for poses!) and walking up and down in front of a few of my classmates and uni tutors. If you require a chaperone, that is fine - I'll have one too. I hope it's not too cheeky a request and I very much hope somebody believes they are right for the job. Let me know in the thread or via a message if you're interested! Having a photo ready of yourself on your profile would be ideal. :)

Thank you!

And how are you all?
Things are going well with me now. I've settled into the new house and I'm getting there with uni work. I am certainly feeling a lot better about my current circumstances. :) Thanks for all the well wishes over the months, everyone.

Hey my friend sent me this link as my boyfriend might be suitable for you, he is quite shy so would probably need some added incentive so could I just ask what the payment would be? Thank you!
