Hu Bing has modelled in China for more than 20 years. According to the Shanghai Star, he has modelled for brands including Ferragamo, Gucci, Dunhill, Valentino and Cartier*3. He is also famous as an actor and singer and now has a hefty 10 million Weibo followers. Known for his gym-toned torso, killer cheekbones and tendency towards suave, dapper dressing – aesthetically, at least – he is an ambassador very much in the David Gandy mould. Expect to see them together in the power front row during London Collections Men, which runs from 12 to 15 June.
