Alton Mason is modeling’s “it” boy right now and at 21-years-old, there’s plenty more for fans to see. The model who got his start with Kanye West covers L’Officiel Hommes Paris for July 2019, after having an incredibly busy, yet successful month in June. Alton is no stranger to the runway and in June, during Paris Fashion Week Men’s and Paris: Haute Couture, Alton was doing what he does best!

Stunning in Givenchy, Alton’s L’Officiel Hommes Paris cover is getting a lot of social media hits and after sharing it on his personal Instagram account, Alton has more than 13,000 likes on the picture that was shot by celebrity photographer Anthony Maule.

Julian Antetomaso styled Alton and celebrity makeup artist Mika Shimoda ensured Alton was picture perfect.

Mika Shimoda shared multiple photos from the shoot and left an incredible caption letting the world know just how special and talented Alton is.

For some, it seemed as if Alton appeared out of nowhere, and in a way, he kind of did. Alton began as a dancer and his dancer’s body has made him a hot commodity for the runway. He was actually scouted on Instagram and after appearing in several runway shows, his career has taken off to new heights. His success has catapulted him to enjoying a level in his career that many only dream of.
