Isaac Ekblad

Isaac Ekblad has been scouted on several occasions, but he finally signed with Specimen Models in Seattle. After that he was taken up by Wilhelmina and was sent to Europe to see what he was able to book for the menswear shows.

Even though Isaac was a newcomer to the modeling world, he quickly got a Givenchy exclusive.

He was scouted by Specimen Models in Seattle and then a week later he signed with Wilhelmina. After being with the agency for a couple of weeks, he was sent to Europe where he landed the Givenchy Exclusive. He then did a week of looks for them and he walked in the show.

However, before this Isaac had been scouted a few times, with the first time being in a coffee shop when he was studying for exams with friends. He says that a lady came in and asked if he wanted to be a model. Isaac thought that it was just a joke, but then it happened again until he eventually signed.

Isaac Ekblad says that his favorite things are good books, with his favorite authors being Heidegger, Dostoyevsky, Steinbeck and Nietzsche. He also loves the outdoors, going hiking, fly fishing and snowboarding.

Also Isaac is pretty smart and says that if he wasn’t modeling then he would be back at school studying philosophy and teaching swimming lessons.

Isaac has said that so far his favorite experience was in Beijing where he did an Arena Homme shoot; the shoot involved an abandoned gun factory and girl that was wearing a giant panda suit.
