How did your modeling career begin? Can you share the story of how you took your first steps into the industry?
Mason reminisces, “Back in 2019, I was walking through a shopping center with my sister. We were on our way to get Boba tea when I was approached by Olie from Next. My sister Tatum is also a model and gave me a silent nod of approval. The following week, I had a test shoot in London and signed the same day.”
What advice would you give to aspiring models looking to break into the industry and make their mark?
“The first thing I’d advise is to take care of your skin and your body. Then, focus on what makes you unique, really explore that. I wouldn’t say modeling is something you can force; it’s a skill we all have. The difference is how we express it,” Mason suggests.
How do you find a balance between your professional life as a model and your personal life?
“At the start, the lights and cameras can be overwhelming, but I have always tried to remain humble, and I believe that’s what keeps me grounded. Being your own person is also important, and when you’re comfortable with who you are, you focus more on exploring the new experiences modeling has to offer and enjoy being around creative people,” Mason explains.
Can you share a piece of advice or mantra that has been instrumental in your personal and professional growth as a model?
“As the Beatles said – Let It Be. There are so many factors that are out of your control as a model. I focus on appreciating each day as it comes,” Mason reflects.
Outside of the modeling industry, what are some of your favorite hobbies or creative outlets that bring you joy and allow you to express yourself?
“I play the guitar religiously. I’m always playing and use my experiences to write my own songs. Writing helps me a lot when I’m traveling, materializing my thoughts and looking back at what I was feeling at the time,” Mason shares.
As a model, you have the opportunity to travel to various locations. What has been your most memorable travel destination so far, and what made it special for you?
Mason fondly recalls, “Definitely the Gucci Cosmogonie Cruise show. We traveled from Rome to Bari with the Gucci team and other models, so it was like one big family. After the show, artists such as Lana Del Ray and Maneskin performed. It was a true dream come true.”
Art has a way of inspiring and connecting people. Are there any specific art forms or artists that resonate with you, and how do they influence your perspective as a model?
“I really enjoy going to galleries and looking at historical art pieces. Music also hugely influences me, from the outfit I choose to wear to the way I walk down the street,” Mason explains.
Exploring different cuisines can be a delightful experience. Is there any particular type of cuisine or favorite dish that you enjoy?
“Being half Italian, I would definitely say Italian food!” Mason shares with a smile.

What is your favorite color?
