You may have seen it peeking at you from the newsstand as he covered Elle Men Mexico, L'Officiel Homme China, or GQ Style. Or maybe you flipped past a John Galliano Underwear, Frankie Morello, or D&G ad in one of the many fashion magazines you've gotten your hands on.

Wherever you saw him, it's a good chance that you've seen him more than once, and his brown ringlets have stuck in your head. Born in Canada, Simon Nessman was signed to Major Model Management in New York City. In his first year, he modeled an editorial with Lily Donaldson, walked in shows for Dsquared2 and Narcisco Rodriguez, and appeared in ads for Givenchy, Ralph Lauren Rugby, Bennetton, Lord and Taylor and the Gap Holiday campaign. He was also featured as a model of the week by Models.com.
