Mustafa Dawood, 21, has been making waves in the fashion industry since his catwalk debut for Angel Chen and Antonio Marras, modelling their autumn/winter 2018 collections at Milan Fashion Week in February.

Originally hailing from Hyderabad, India, the young model represented his home country and became an international finalist at the Elite Model Look competition 2017, ultimately winning People’s Choice, and was snapped up by Elite’s Paris and Milan branches shortly after. Since his February debut, Dawood has caught the attention of several fashion houses, walking for the likes of Prada, Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, Valentino, and Louis Vuitton, in the last month alone.
