David Gandy, born in 1980 in Billericay, Essex, is a British model of Scottish descent, best known for his advert for Dolce & Gabbana's fragrance "Light Blue". In 2009 he was voted the third most successful model in the world by Forbes magazine. It was friends who got him into modeling, by posting his photograph to a "Male Model competition". At the time, he had a job delivering cars to a car magazine – a nice but undemanding gig that ended when he won the contest. He was taken on by Select Model Management, one of the country’s leading agencies, and spent the next five years toiling away in relative obscurity, doing catalogue work.
Mariano Vivanco shares some of his mages of David Gandy taken this Spring in NYC exclusively for the new book David Gandy by Dolce & Gabbana.
"As Fashion and Fashion Imagery are closely related sisters, we all weave through them deciphering fashion moments we can find true, real, even if they are brisk or short lived. With David I have found many of those moments... Thank you." - Mariano Vivanco
