Gabriel Nhial made an unforgettable debut walking for Versace in Milan for SS24, a moment that quickly opened the door to working with names such as Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Tom Ford and Balmain. His rise has been fast, including a cover for The Perfect Magazine and recognition as a breakout star nominee by Models.com. Originally from South Sudan, Gabriel was scouted on Facebook in 2021 while living in a refugee camp in Kenya, something that completely changed the direction of his life. Fashion became a space where he could dream bigger, express himself, and step closer to his love of entertainment and storytelling. Having previously played football and danced growing up, he brings strong energy and movement into everything he does. Outside of modelling, Gabriel enjoys photography, film, music, and performance, with hopes of one day moving into acting.
