The “Male Model” stereotype seems to be changing and we can likely thank social media for the shift in thinking. In the past, when referring to male models, many would consider them – shall we say – not so bright. The movie Zoolander did nothing but fuel the negative public perception. Since we can now follow the words and images directly from the mouth of fashion’s leading men via Twitter and Instagram, we have learned that many male models are smart, witty, and charming. Menswear fashion week in Europe is now upon us, so we’ve compiled a list of 15 of our favorite male models to follow on Twitter and Instagram.

Sean O’Pry on twitter/instagram: @Seanopry55 

Although he is one of the most successful working male models, Sean is new to the social media world. Following this veteran model and industry icon is a must!

Benjamin Jarvis on twitter: @BenjJarvis and instagram: @benjjarviss

Benjamin Jarvis is a fairly new face to the fashion world, but he’s the kid that many are buzzing about. His social media style is raunchy, exciting and he often shares behind the scenes tidbits.

Hampus Lück on twitter/instagram: @hampusluck

Tobias and his girlfriend Jasmine Tookes are one of fashion’s most beautiful couples. As much as Jasmine loves tweeting and instagramming, Tobias may have her beat!
