Making it as a male model in Europe and US is just as hard as making it as a model in Uganda. While there’s close to no modeling industry in Uganda, the industry in the other side of the world is filled with so many faces. Only those with unique looks and features survive as outstanding models. One such model is Dylan Williams Mugagga Nyanzi who is making waves in London.
The 21 year old model was born and raised in London. He was scouted while on his way to work at department store River Island and he’s now signed to Elite London and Soul Artist Management in the US. It should be noted that Elite is one of the most sought after agencies in the world. That said, being signed to Elite doesn’t automatically mean that a model will become an over night success. It is the unique features that count.
According to Dylan., his agency thinks he has an amazing skin tone (I have to agree with them. Such a unique flawless tone). He however thinks it is his eyes that stand out while his mother thinks it ishis teeth. That might not be important because Dylan is already doing well.
He has already been photographed some big name photographers in the UK. He has appeared in campaigns for Primark and River Island. He was also very busy during the spring/summer season as he walked for brands such as Hackett and Racket.
The sky is the limit for this model who looks up to David Agbodji and Tyson Beckford for inspiration.
Here below is some of his work
