Closing the Maison Margiela Spring Summer 2020 fashion show made Leon Dame a star. Instagram was exploded by videos with him. He attracted me and since then I have been crazy about him. I like the way Leon expresses himself for Galliano's shows and other runways too. The track for this compilation was took from Maison Margiela Spring Summer 2020 fashion show.
His walk changes depending on the clothes like a... ChameLeon. OK I'll see myself out
Hey you! Come back in!
No no no no no! Don't go. Take me with you.
I was going to say the same thing
What does chameleon supposed to mean? Sorry I'm dumb
@@yhas.5916 You know the animal? That always changes it's skin colour according to it's environment
He said “if the clothes are boring so am I”
That's why I love supermodel from the 90s!!! They make, anything they wear, look good 😉
Yes
dont think you can choose what to do or else they wouldnt let him be in the shows anymore it depends on what the designer wants
@@Miafjdd which gucci show???
As we can see in Benetton 🤪
It’s amazing how he switches up his style of walk to match how conceptual the piece is. The more avant-garde or flashy the clothing, the crazier his walk and it is AWESOME
this!!!
I dont know anything about modeling or fashion and kinda randomly stumbled upon this video. But looking at this man... all I can say is he truly OWNS each outfit he comes out in. Its almost like "method acting" in a way, hard to put into words but its like he conjures up the exact image one would think to be donning that outfit, the quintessential persona, his flexibility to convincingly embody each one is simply amazing.
And you say you know nothing about modeling?😳🙆🏻♀️ You catched the whole point and described it beyond articulately! If only people who know about modeling (allegedly🤭) were capable to express like you did... 🧛🏻♀️🖤
@@sebumpostmortem Aww thank you for such kind words, that totally made my day 😊also ur name is pretty cool im also into dark morbid stuff 🦇
he got that "he doesnt need the company, the company needs him" vibes
And he'll be replaced by someone younger next year..
@@rock-ym3uf he’s 23. His career is far from over.
@@vikagrinberg9203 I'm not that invested in his career like you are....unlike you I have my own.plus I've worked with models 23 is kind of old the clock is ticking because there's always someone younger behind him..I wish him luck hopefully he can switch to an acting career because from where I'm looking he's not modeling he's scting but like they say in the entertainment industry it's not who you know it's who you blow..
@@rock-ym3uf Naomi is 50+ and she’s STILL on the runway
@@marinademi8805 Naomi Campbell...yes I know she was fro. The era of the ninties supermodels
he seems like he’s trolling but also slaying at the same time... i love it.
My thoughts exactly 😆
Strong zoolandervibes in this one
Trolling? Nah.
True some of his walks are very model like and others look like a parody and he's getting away with it
Ikr
Just when you think the world has missed the joke, Leon Dame appears. .So hypnotic, so modern ... so artist. Impossible not to like. Thanks for inspiring
Its very easy not to like. Only high fashion snobs like this idiocy. The clothes are bs this is just a freakshow.
Leon dame’s walk is such art. The way that every frame looks fantastic slowed down yet he hits it with such intensity is just amazing.
It’s like a movie. He creates an entire universe.
I think the point is he understands the intention of designers. I mean he walks to show the clothes in a way THE DESIGNER WANTS. He is a real model.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
unchanging golovin yet he’s booked out by designers all the time. The proof says you’re wrong.
Which is impressive when you remember that he was discovered while waiting for the bus to go home and had no previous modeling experience.
These designers must want their clothes to look stupid then because he looks idiotic
Yeah, thats the difference to Instagram models where you just feel that they want to present themselfs to the world but good high fashion models know that they present the work of designers and they are working for a big process/art as one part of a whole team of photographers, stylists, lightning technicians, marketing designers etc
You might find him extra or weird but the fact is he catches everyone’s attention if you notice. Not many models can be like him. Truly unique
Lisa Oppa yeah by being a weirdo, it would be hard not to notice such a freak.
Brocklod exactly, he's beautiful
Mariah&WhitneyLamb i think that’s freak in a good way
Lisa Oppa But you're supposed focus on the garment, not the model's eccentricity.
Not everyone can do it cos their contracts said model have to make clothes look better and dont show their personalities cos the company dont pay you to show your personality . He can do it good for him but other cant for their contracts.
He’s playing a character in every runaway, different moods every times and building them with the clothing he wears. Delightful.
If you pause randomly as you watch, you can see the genius in his walk. So many options for photographers.
he absolutely embodies his clothes, it's like he's making characters out of what he's wearing
Exactly.
Yea, everyone would notice he walks entirely different on each clothes.
is a he??? I tought was a she! XD mamma mia I was not so sure, I am just confused watching it
@@scappellos hahahah he's a ragazzo not ragazza lol
@@scappellos he has really androgynous features, that's probably why, and a really intense stare
Plot twist: *He is actually a Jojo character*
nah fr tho he is araki should take inspiration from that model
Totally lol ;)
YES omfg this made my life
@@eddykalima9257 araki did say he watches a lot of fashion shows for inspo! i’m sure he knows him
I was thinking the same lol
This man is a living, breathing work of art. Modeling shouldn’t be as sexualized as it is.
Fashion is a expression I Definitely hope we're not sexualized... I walk for brands I wish I had his confidence I do plus size I'm 69kg he is a legend ❤
Leon is fantastic. I could watch him all day.
To u is it annoying when gay men have flamboyant voices
Besides of his walk, his face structure and physique are every designer's dream
fact!
@@wowensdale2245 Actually there are a lot of models who look like him or close.
Facts
He walks as a different character every single time. He walks with his charisma and his story, not only with his body. A spirit vestured
Facial expression on fleek. Skin tone on fleek. Face structure on fleek. Physique on fleek.
He can drag both of the masculine and feminine energy. I love it.
and i think he is a straight dude
I don't see any masculine energy 😄 But I do see the clownish walk. This is far worse than Kendal Jenner.
@Molly333 why u dont care someone's sexuality RUDE
@Merle Ginsberg Says the actual karen who's triggered that I don't like a model's walk lol. Keep being a karen!!
@Merle Ginsberg And yet I'm not the one here telling people to shut up just bcz I don't like what they are saying.....You are doing that!! A classic Karen move!!! People can say if they don't like a model's walk, or an actor's acting. If that triggers you you shouldn't be surfing in social medias.
He was born for it. Absolutely different walk with different clothes. He's legend
That is a person entirely in his own world. Incredible.
Finally a male walk with confidence and that makes you want to watch him.
He draws all the attention just by his presence, it’s amazing
He's actually creepy
tre due nah
@@yourstruly7086 yeah he has a boss vibe
tre due people are abusing the word creepy. An old man poking your ass with a chopstick that is creepy.
This is the first time I've ever been impressed by a model tbh. His body language and aura depending on the clothing is captivating.
I'm not really interested in models, but I watched this one till end, and that's something even I'm impressed. He's such eye catching
He walks like he hates the clothes he's wearing.
The clothing line is hideous.
Nah it just comes off as weird
@@HarisKhan-zf8nk he walks like he has flat feet.
Whoever edited this was ON BEAT the entire time. Great work.
I love his versatility and variances to his walks. He stands out in his uniqueness and you almost can't take your eyes off of him.
It's like the more ridiculously he is dressed, the more angry and stampy he gets 😂 I swear he walks much more normally when he isn't wearing a tiny pvc sailor coat with his white undies showing 😂😂
Mm, yo no lo diría ridículo. Lo diría mas como creativo, y original. Supongo que por sus expresiones es lo que le llevo al punto de ser realmente llamativo
@@mianams1015 why did you answer in spanish tho? Just curious
@@mianams1015 somehow i understood everything you just said and i agree w u
@@Adriana-ii3uv yes it's spanish
@@itssauceyy9047 O sea si pero porqué? No es bardo por si
My son needs to be a model. He walks like this when I make him wash the dishes 🤣😂
Show him this video, maybe he'll actually like it 👀
i'm DYING hahahah
Aww😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Stoooooopppppp 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Saaaaameeee!!! My son does this up the stairs when I ask for him to do tidy his room.
🤣Adopt me
I keep coming back to this video. His personality & confidence are radiant. Reading all the comments - It’s not just me - he seems to put a smile on EVERYONE’s face ❤
Leon doesn' t catwalk. He dances and acts through walking. A 360° performance👌🏻✨
hes the kind of person that does understand abstract modern art
Walking a straight line with a swish is considered art now?
@@rock-ym3uf hahaha pressed much
@@ib.8593 I studied art fashion design and illustration at FIT In new York ..ice mcd drag shows in New York night clubs ..that's not art..that's a drag queen walk..
@@rock-ym3uf good for you boo xx
@@ib.8593 not for you boo
If I saw him walking in the streets like that I would be so intimidated
I would be like so confused. Is this a camera show or something?
@@MrCheesecake1928 Yes, my camera show called LIFE
What does intimidated mean
I don't know if this is sarcasm or ur actually going to be intimated
I would laugh
He is one of the most gorgeous men ever. Such a unique face, powerful eyes, intense bone structure, just incredible.
He has a way of embodying a vibe according to what he's wearing. It's something we can all relate to, but he turned it into an art form. He demonstrates the beautiful symbiosis that can happen between the designer and their muse, the fascination they can both create beyond just pretty people wearing pretty clothes, it becomes artistic expression, it becomes fashion.
he's actually the only model i've seen that could both encapsulate an aura without taking the attention off the clothes. It's like he and the outfits he wears is one
Exactly...when models move around...they tend to draw attention to themselves rather than the clothes...but this guy, his movements are not just random and "showing off"... it's complimenting the clothes he wears which makes it pop off even more. Brilliant!!!
kate moss too.
@@clonnlijinhlong2713 *Why is he wearing women’s clothes and waddling like he he just took in 30 pork swords?*
@@clonnlijinhlong2713 you guys are cringe as fck lmao. He's just walking and making mean faces. They made him wear a diaper, like a giant toddler who sht himself.
Would love to be whatever you're on
The mens fashion industry needs more eccentric models like leon.. he just GETS IT and its not like macho men are the only consumers of designer fashion more like the opposite
@unchanging golovin Haha are you kidding?
Macho men?? u think this is the 00s? Its been young skinny androgynous boys for awhile now
Tee Gee I know you’re being sarcastic, but yes, the fashion industry really does need more gays.
Not being androgynous or looking like a woman does not mean you are a macho ! Fashion industry has a way to alienate people into thinking masculinity as toxic but it is not ! I'm a woman and I can clearly see how the mostly male gay fashion industry has had a huge impact on gender representation ( no more curvy women models who now look more like little boys or men than women and androgynous male models ). It seems like the fashion industry wants to erase the notion of gender maybe to sell more unisex outfits !
Tee Gee What gender is it alienating?
I love how he changes his walk depending on the mood of the collection. ❤
He really gets into the role. Cracked me up. My favorite is when he turned around and looked over his shoulder. Mad laughter.
So many people don't understand that this is art and it's a performance. Almost everyone can walk but not everyone can be a model
Walking a straight line is not art.m
@@rock-ym3uf downvote
Everyone's talking about the model but no one is talking about the actual clothing line...
I like that you make sure to put the word "Almost" before "Everyone can walk" 😂
Then what makes a model a model?
This guy the kind of model that makes me actually want to buy the clothes he's wearing regardless of how they look.
My God he's good
Would like to know the name of the black jacket he wore
My husband said he'd use them to wipe oil off his hands and then bury them in the concrete after it, so not every man's that impressed with either the clothes nor the model! We both did have a good laugh at him though, it was more like comedy than anything else!
@@lllllllllllllllll905 It's from Maison Margiela's Spring/summer 2020 collection. The last look of the collection.
@@notamused3715 that’s your problem. No body asking you to insult him
Ever since I knew about him, he straight up became my most favorite male supermodel
Leon is living embodiment of whatever he is wearing. It’s almost like the clothing possess him and take control and I’m here for it!!
His face is what I imagine Dorian Gray's face would look like
Omg that's true. Btw I am going to finish this book!
No
Exactly, lol why is this so accurate
This is so accurate ??
OH MY GOD, HOW CAN WE BE THINKING THE SAME THING😮
He reminds me of a junkie I used to date in uni,. Came home all my books and music was gone, But God he was beautiful
This comment is a mood
He reminds me of zoolander 😂
LOL!!!
Tee Gee Huh? Just because you live a sheltered life doesn’t mean we all do - I can name at least 5 junkies who have stolen sht from me - it’s kind of what they do (I can also attest that methheads loving stealing CDs).
omg hahhahahahahhahaha 😂😂😂😂😂
I swear he is the best model I have ever seen in my life. His walks are on another level
Amazing how he is a different character every time he changes outfits
He could easily be a JoJo protagonist with that walk and fashion sense.
I knew a jojo comment would be here lmao
If it wasn't already here, i would have made the JoJo comment lol
all the weebs here now
I agree. he has this Jojo vibe...
1:34 Josuke part 8
He kinda seems like an introvert but the runway is where he fully expresses himself
Yeh i think he is , but introverts always want stay alone for recharge and back to the social thinks , get masive attention its fully stressed , btw sorry mah english.
@@mandingolazer5540 I'm an introvert and I don't mind doing this at all, as long as I don't have to speak for hours .
@@emperorliz I'm an introvert but I barely get out of the house in holidays, I just hate it. so yeah Introverts are different.
@@mavis.lahar2001 Exactly
I don't know why but I can't control my laugh 😂 when he walk with his arrogant look 🤣🤣🤣
he absolutly kills every outfit. he lives in it. Acts
So much main character energy
He's actually Josuke from Jojolion
@@felliciadjohan9102 I was waiting for a JoJo reference ✨
He’s like a Jojo character
He just exudes enemy stand user energy 😭😂
You got it right 😂😂😂😂😂 and someone please make an edit of jojo pose with him 🥺🥺
Jojo pose😂
trueee
@unchanging golovin have you seen the new archs or what? Jojos are skinny now
Leon Dame brings life to the apparels. I love his walks. Big fan
In the course of 4.47 minutes I went from OMG what on earth? to OMG he's fantastic, I LOVE him!!!
He is so extra, theatrical and dramatic it's fun
3:13 Poor Leon, they actually bound him to suppress his over the top energy.
Do you know this or are you assuming
@@CuriosityKilledKali ummm...a joke perhaps?
😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
PLEASEEE
He's cool AF 😎 Anything he wears looks freaking awesome lol
woah, this is the first time I finished a full video of a runway
He’s like those badass feminine guy who will say anything to your face without any hesitation and I’m here for that.
unchanging golovin it’s a human thing. Otherwise cartoon characters wouldn’t be drawn with distinctive features to help define their personality to the audience (or say, casting different actors in appropriate roles, like you wouldn’t cast someone like The Rock as a struggling, sensitive artiste). Even very young children associate things like “meanness” and “friendliness” with different faces.
@@Mayakran don't mind him, he's been commenting multiple negative comments with no actual substance all over this video.
bradley cooper in fight club!
unchanging golovin and men don’t? Humans attribute personality traits to looks all the time (blondes are more fun and innocent, brunettes are shrewish and seductive, etc). And cartoons represent people, it does apply to real life. I also gave actors as an example-are they not real?
not realy, he is just a smart guy who know catch your attention
he's hypnotic. he knows the designers' vision and brings a new energy to each show. also the perfect song for him.
Are these "models" supposed to be non binary transmen? Cos they're no longer men
talent that translates to the laymen. that walk to almost defend the hugo boss era of uniform-like fashion. jeez. you dont even need to guess this guy identifies with his prussion/holy roman roots deeply.
Yeah, especially the sweaty balls part
I think he Gives them the Vision they didn’t See themselves Perhaps Also.
He could seriously get casted as a JoJo character for live action
It scares me how when this man dies there will never be anyone who'll be better than him
The contrast between 4:08 and 1:36 is everything and needs to be applauded. He gives the garment it's own freaking personality!
The clothing line is hideous
@@rock-ym3uf 90% of the time, it's always hideous 😂😂😂
He truly wears the clothes, the clothes don't wear him.
The clothing line is awful.
@@rock-ym3uf as if you can dress any better
It's like he's playing a character for every outfit. Genuinely amazing
"His" acting skills could use a little (meaning a LOT of) work. At this point he no longer comes across as a he. More like a they them. Are you into that at all?
@@marioluigi9599 this was unnecessary
@@0kkkkkkkkk No it was absolutely necessary. That's not manly. That's not he him. That's they them. I've never seen any man behave like that. It seems alien. So they them is correct for this person
This is the first time I've seen someone be blatantly bigoted against gender non-conformity while somehow recognizing non-binary people. What a time to be alive.
@@DUWANGlai_kangyi And what a time to he alive when there's people like you proclaiming that gender non-conformity is actually a HEALTHY thing to be doing. Apparently you don't even see that every single last one of them has massive and unending mental health issues. Yet still you encourage it, instead of doing what is right, which is trying to make them comfortable in their bodies. You're not even consistent. You say gender is a social construct and yet you'd rather have them undergo surgery and hormone replacement to change their bodies. Whyyyyyyy? If gender is a social construct, clearly you could just help them construct a better gender for themselves. One that actually works with their biological bodies. Clearly that would actually prevent all the health complications. As it stands, literally every young transwoman that's on female hormones and has low testosterone levels starts developing osteoporosis within a few short years. That's an old woman's disease. And extremely serious and painful. You contributed to it. The reason why they suffer from it. And yet you still think you are correct. What a time to be alive
He is so professionell and a great performer ... absolutly stunning
Leon Dames rocks I love his walk when he's wearing his black boots and black outfit that's how I walk into every doctors appt and every Friday!!! You work it Leon! Your my motivation!
i love how he also has eyecontact with the audience
I'd be so intimidated I'd give him my clothes there and then.
If I were present there and he came up to me looking at me right in the eyes, I'd say - "take whatever you want, please don't hurt me🙌...."
I need to hear him talk, am I the only one?
He's German. So I guess imagine a german man...
Isak icon!!!!
Oh
@@christina4012 I imagine British
He's German so just picture a German accent. I still can't believe this guy is only 22 and was discovered at a bus stop in Germany waiting to go home. It looks like he's been doing this all his life.
This never gets old...
doesnt matter how loud his clothes scream "gay gay homosexual gay" his face firmly tells you he's straighter than a ruler
He’s very different. He makes you want to see more, he’s addictive, exciting and impressive. My brother is a model manager and I’ve seen hundreds of models come and go, and I’ve never seen anything like this. I just love him. He’s really cool and with the pretty face, he’s just perfect.
He was discovered at a bus stop of all places. It makes me happy just watching him strut up and down the catwalk. He's perfection.
@@melinaesposito3434y no de ..
His personality shines bright! I would say this boy definitely has a pep in his step!
Whatever that was at 1:38 would have me heading in the opposite direction. Ugh.
@@ChrisAndCats That was attitude :)
"I'm a pretty boy I'm stunning" literally made for this boy
Honey that music is Awesome!!! He's so fierce here!
He literally extracts character of the design out ! what a great Artist 👏🏼
He’s like that version of ourselves that we don’t show to others, like a weirdo who really knows and passionate on what he’s doing so the crowd is so drawn to him!
The music has never matched the video so well ever before.
Damn! Powerful! His walk depends on the outfit and you can tell his walk is very strong is like him and teh outfit are one... I am so freaking amazed.
Leon is fantastic to watch. A true joy
Wtf why no one talking about the bg music😂 "i wanna smell you."
the song fits him lmao idk
Lol
WORK IT 🚶
@@hyeri5338 LMAO
😭😭😭😭BYE
If I ever became a fashion designer I would do everything to have him as a model. He walks like he knows he's the shit...and he actually is. He truly stands out from the rest of the models,actually looks like he's having fun and I'm really here for it. He's like the person everyone wants to be like:weird,confident and eccentric yet original and fresh
he looks almost magical
ILOVEYOU omy dammmm the way his walk just addeds to the Atmosphere ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The zombie walk smh...

Gives me anxiety looking at it lol
That was bit too much😆
@Beatrice Adamson iconic ?????? 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
The new standard portfolio/resume for runway modeling. Versatility *and* understands the assignment? We gotta love & appreciate models who just brilliantly get it.
Sooooo fierce! DGAF about no one but that runway stomp, henny!
He models with every part of his body, his eyes, his legs, his arms, his pose, everything its so engaging and hot
@unchanging golovin it is hot. the confidence, the show in every move. please do not start a fight on tastes.
unchanging golovin Maybe you’re not unattractive on the outside, but definitely on the inside.
big chungus nah have you seen his outsides? yikes
@unchanging golovin you must be so ugly that u feel the need to bring down a beautiful man just to feel a tiny bit good about yourself
@unchanging golovin imagine being so low and insecure
He's like a Sheldon Cooper if Sheldon was a runway model. Everything is so awkward and has its own rhythm that only makes sense to him. A giant praying mantis!
Omg yess that’s why he seemed so familiar
This!!!!
hell nawh....don't insult leon
A model in the truest sense. The song, his snake like movements -- watched this at least once every three months to feel alive.
I love his iconic walks for each outfit and era his face everything it’s giving
In ur opinion is gay men sounding flamboyant is annoying and extra
I love his aristocratic look and his charisma, good video!

EXACTLY.
Who else? Came here after watching Britneymanson short lol
He’s funny 😆! Love the “ navy” walk ! The best !
He is so unique and charismatic. The fact is that he walks just perfect for how the designer would've wanted the clothes to be showcase. For male mainstream clothes, he walks with masculinity and for clothes with a feminine touch, he walks sassily and for the clothes which have a little extra glimmer, he walks like he's stalking across the dance floor under disco . Just phenomenal
Stomps Like Gisele, is extra like Fernanda Tavares, poses like Linda evangelista, intimidating like Naomi... a legend is born!!
This is the definition of what Unique truly is . Surprising and Inspiring. Innovation
He's an icon, he's a legend and he is the moment
I went to a well known fashion school and did some modeling on the side. Back then you were yelled at if you tried to stand out or pull focus in any way. Especially on the runway and especially in menswear. I didn’t even have a name, I was referred to as, “red shoes.” Your walk had to be on time- you had 3 seconds at the end of the runway before you turned around. You were just a walking coat hanger. I’m glad to see the industry has changed some since then. It’s refreshing to see a spectrum of masculinity and individuality actually embraced.
It depends whether it results in more or less sales... that's all that matters... As a model your there for the marketing, either to elevate the status of the clothes or to draw attention to them with click bait if you are personality driven walking.
haha ya. you discredit the reality of what alien proportions does for the look of a fit. Modeling school wont give you a set of legs that is 70% the height of your body.
yeah. sure. working at banana republic is hardly modeling. bet you can fold a mean shirt tho
@@marsianer4842 okay 👍
if i was chad,i would prefer chico or sean oprey type runway.Pure classy or badboy type but not like this femboy runway
he LITERALLY give the outfits PERSONALITY. look at how he walks and feels more different with each piece of clothing
THIS
it's like he expressing his feeling that he got from those clothes through his walk.
hot take but the best models are the ones who can successfully encapsulate a character with whatever clothes they're wearing. and leon dame NAILS this!
