James Downes
James is an individual whose greatest strengths lie in his adaptability and genuine nature. What you see is truly what you get, and his easygoing charisma makes him a joy to work with in any setting. His striking cheekbones, golden-brown medium-length hair, and piercing blue eyes lend him a unique, androgynous appeal that captivates audiences and photographers alike.
A graduate of Business Management from De Montfort University in Leicester, James seamlessly balances intellect and creativity. His experience includes walking for Leicester Fashion Week, where his natural flair and presence shone on the runway aswell as modelling for The Secret Garden in the Loreal Colour Trophy competition and for brand Thwaites Vintage. James has also featured on November 2019 issue 9 for @ferocemagazine .
James is not only visually compelling but also immensely talented. He’s a skilled musician, playing the electric guitar, bass guitar, and keyboard, with also an understanding of the piano. His creative interests extend to the ethereal and artistic—if given the chance to style a shoot, James would curate an angelic atmosphere with sheer fabrics, raindrops, and otherworldly vibes.
In addition to his artistic pursuits, James thrives in active pursuits like surfing, fencing, and cycling. He’s also a novice in Spanish, proving his willingness to learn and grow.
Beyond his physical talents, James is a strategic thinker and a master of chess, maintaining an undefeated streak for over five years. With 272,000 TikTok followers, James uses his platform to promote chivalry and mental health awareness. James is inspired by icons such as David Tennant, David Bowie, and Bon Jovi.
Motivated by life’s simple pleasures—a warm bath, a good cup of tea, or making others laugh—James exudes kindness and authenticity. He values his unusual laugh, his facial symmetry and his unique birthmark.
A lover of vintage Burberry and Vivienne Westwood, James appreciates timeless fashion. His artistic sensibilities are influenced by classic horror films, gothic movies, and 1980s music from artists like Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Iron Maiden and The Cure. Literary favourites include 4:50 from Paddington by Agatha Christie, reflecting his love of mysteries and storytelling.
In cinema, James gravitates towards heartfelt and inspiring films like Mrs. Doubtfire, Good Will Hunting, and Hacksaw Ridge. If he could change the world, it would be by fostering more genuine connections, encouraging strangers to talk to one another.
