Conrad is his name, and his Instagram handle is “KingCon”. Modeling since 2013, Conrad Bromfield got scouted on a New York City subway platform by his now agent, Michael Stallings, who ran after him just fast enough to exchange numbers. Since then the fashion set has been running after the mixed (Jamaican, Indian, and German) island king.
The 25-year-old model turned heads in 2014 after being featured on the cover of Numéro Russia, nude. Nude and not alone, Conrad got photographed with the iconic Pat Cleveland. Oh, and the Godfather of menswear, Tom Ford shot them, in partnership with His Eminence, André Leon Talley. During that time the Jamaican model was the face of Tom Ford.
Bromfield is no stranger to the runway. He has walked for everyone, from Armani and Balmain to Gucci and Hermès. This past season he opened for Moncler Gamme Bleu SS17 and fulfilled his dream of walking for Armani… both Armani labels; Emporio and Giorgio. Bromfield has graced editorials with leading fashion magazines across the fashion landscape and the industry. Blessed with good genes he doesn’t have to do much to stay in shape and probably game time with his PS4 is sufficient; however, he prefers to make his environment his gym. When Conrad isn’t in the studio, he can be found running his business, called Deleague Auto located in Brooklyn NYC.
