IN CONVERSATION|LOUIS TAYLOR
Name|Louis Taylor
Age|16
Hometown|London, England
How did you get discovered?
I was scouted in Topman on a shopping trip with friends—being followed around the store by Eva and Nico.
What were you doing prior to modeling?
Just living my normal life in school, working on rainy days outside my local Spec Savers asking people if they wanted a "free eye test" leaflets to old ladies.
People would be surprised to know that I...
shout in my sleep—it is pretty scary thought, GOD knows what I shout about!
What's your latest obsession?
Tom Waits album Raindogs. The songs have a gritty tone that just sums up my grumpy mood swings. I cannot stop listening...
Your most prize possession?
My Joy Division, Unknown Pleasures vinyl. The sound of the needle squeaking down on the record is awesome! It was the first record I got and it was my dads—it means a lot to me as it really got me into the genre. Thanks Dad!
Growing up, who did you look up to as your hero?
Mo Farah because when I was younger, I was obsessed with running and his last minute sprints always pumps me up.
When is the last time you said, "I Love You" to someone?
It is cliche.com but my girlfriend Iona—she is a brilliant person and she is always there for me. She deserves the last I Love You said even though my last I Love You was probably for my dog, Aero.
Three adjectives that best describes you:
Mumpish, Inquisitive and Immature
Describe your personal style:
Oxford meets a mix of Saint Laurent and skater boy.
Your favorite place you have travel to:
It would be South Bank, London at night. Walking along the Thames after a full belly of Mexican food from Wahaca, London.The lights reflecting on the river are just magical.
Your favorite film and scene from the film:
Reservoir Dogs—Scene: The entire film
If there's a destination or item you would recommend us to check out or visit about your native country/city or town, what would you recommend?
London, England—Ally Pally cause that's where I spend most of my time!
Favorite moment in modeling:
Walking for Lanvin and Kenzo SS2016 shows.
Your wish for the remainder of 2015?
Definitely to be able to pause time. Literally you could do anything from stripping the person you hate the most and dumping the individual on a street to robbing a bank! Just kidding!
