October 8, 201014 yr Author Model to Watch | Luis Borges Exclusive | The Fashionisto Appearing in fall 2010 campaigns for United Colors of Benetton, Paul Smith, Tommy Hilfiger and Etro, DNA model Luis Borges experiences his breakout season in a sensational fashion. Twenty-two years-old and from Portugal, Luis made a quiet debut on the runway almost two years ago before getting a phone call, where in a humorous fashion, Luis Smith had been confirmed for Paul Smith. Surely a mistake that would not be made today, Luis is not going anywhere anytime soon with campaigns already lined up for next year. One of the friendliest talents around, we look forward to what the near future holds for this new star. Luis photographed by Marco Pires with best friend and fellow model Ana Sofia Luis: It all started when my sister put me up for Elite Model Look in Portugal without me even knowing it. They called me to go to the casting... I was one of the finalists... but no, I did not win. That's life. Anyway it is all my sister's fault ah ah ah.When did you start modeling then? Luis: I started around 18 months ago. But full-time, I have only been doing it for the past 12 months. How has your demand as a model changed in the last year? Luis: It changed a lot, actually it did not change, everything happened in the last year. The shows for great designers, four campaigns for winter 2010, the ranking at Models.com... Sometimes I just think to myself it's all going too fast, but after I just go: No it's not too fast, it's great!!! What was the first fall 2010 campaign booking you found out about? Luis: The first campaign was Paul Smith, after was Tommy Hilfiger and Benetton. What was your reaction? Luis: I remember I was in Paris doing my castings, I had just got off the subway, and my booker called me "
