He also launched two mobile apps: one for physical fitness and the other for style tips. Soon thereafter, Gandy was appointed by the [[British Fashion Council]] to their committee for 'London Collections: Men' to be a representative of the British fashion industry. In 2014, he moved beyond modelling to designing his own range of underwear, lounge-wear and swimwear for [[Marks & Spencer]], which became one of the company's top-selling clothing lines. Gandy was repeatedly included on British ''[[GQ]]'''s list of 'Best Dressed Men' and was named the 'Most Stylish Man of the Year' in 2015 at their Men of the Year awards gala.

Gandy started his own production company and has invested in small companies and film projects. He has also participated in numerous charity fundraisers, most prominently as the [[Goodwill ambassador|celebrity ambassador]] for the [[Battersea Dogs and Cats Home]], Style for Soldiers charity and the 'Blue Steel Appeal', his own non-profit foundation.

He obtained a racing licence in 2012 and competed in the 2013 and 2015 [[Mille Miglia]] Italian endurance races as well as [[Offshore powerboat racing|powerboat races]] with [[Martini Racing]].

David James Gandy (born 19 February 1980 in Billericay, Essex, England) is a British model. He grew up in Essex in a working-class family. After winning a televised model-search competition, he became a successful model. For several years, Gandy was the lead male model for Italian designers Dolce & Gabbana who featured him in their campaigns and fashion shows.

In an industry dominated by skinny models, Gandy's muscular build caused some menswear fashion designers to move to a more masculine standard.[5] The increase in his popularity and name recognition resulted in a broad portfolio of magazine covers, editorial photo shoots, interviews and industry awards. He has gone on to participate in fashion-related and personal projects such as writing a blog for British Vogue, writing car reviews for British GQ, mobile app development and charity work.

Modelling career

Background

In his youth, Gandy wanted to be a veterinarian but his grades were not high enough to meet the needed standards for that line of study. So, while studying multimedia computing, he went to work for Auto Express, delivering the latest Porsches and Jaguars to the track for testing.[6] Before graduating from the University of Gloucestershire with a Marketing degree, Gandy's flatmate entered him (without his knowledge) into a modelling competition on ITV’s This Morning hosted by Richard and Judy.[5] The 21-year-old Gandy won the competition which included a contract with Select Model Management in London.[2]

Work

During the early years of his career, Gandy modelled for a variety of companies including: Shiatzy Chen, 7 for all Mankind, Zara, Gant U.S.A., Hugo Boss, Russell & Bromley, H&M, Carolina Herrera, Massimo Dutti and others.[7] In 2006, he became the face of Dolce & Gabbana, annually starring in their apparel campaigns and fashion shows through 2011, working with female supermodels such as Gemma Ward, Scarlett Johansson and Naomi Campbell as well as male models including Noah Mills, Tony Ward and Adam Senn.[8][9][10]

Gandy is best known for the 2007 advert of Dolce & Gabbana's fragrance "Light Blue" with Marija Vujovic (shot by photographer Mario Testino) which had 11 million online hits and saw a 50-foot billboard of him displayed in Times Square.[11] He modelled for their 2008 calendar, shot by photographer, Mariano Vivanco.[12] Gandy returned as the face of the second "Light Blue" fragrance campaign for 2010, but this time with Anna Jagodzinska.[13] He also made a short promotional film for W Hotels with Helena Christensen called "Away We Stay".[14]

In 2011, the fashion house published "David Gandy by Dolce & Gabbana", a 280-page photographic coffee table book of images chronicling their years of collaboration.[15] That same year, Gandy shot four magazine covers and five fashion editorial photoshoots. In 2012, he was featured on sixteen magazine covers, eighteen fashion editorials[16] and modelled for Banana Republic, Lucky Brand Jeans, El Palacio de Hierro and Marks & Spencer.[17] In addition, Gandy was named the brand ambassador for Johnnie Walker Blue Label.[18]

In 2013, Dolce & Gabbana released the third version of the “Light Blue” fragrance campaign featuring Gandy. Once again, Mario Testino filmed the adverts and commercial on location in the island of Capri, southern Italy but this time with the Italian model Bianca Balti in the female role.[19] Bionda Castana, a British shoe label, released a fashion film featuring Gandy called "David Gandy's Goodnight." In it, he seduces several women who discover later that he has stolen their shoes.[20] On 26 September, Gandy and Jaguar released a short film called "Escapism" which featured Gandy driving models such as the C-Type, E-Type, XKSS as well as the new F-Type.[21] In November, Marks & Spencer launched their 2013 Christmas advertising campaign, "Magic & Sparkle". The fairy-tale-themed commercial featured Rosie Huntington-Whiteley with Helena Bonham Carter and Gandy.[22]

Other endeavours

Fashion projects

2012 Olympics - British Models

In May 2010, Gandy spoke at the University of Oxford Union as part of a panel that included photographer Tony McGee, Victoria & Albert Museum senior curator Claire Wilcox, fashion consultant Frances Card and Dolly Jones, the editor of British Vogue.[11] Prior notable speakers who have debated in the Oxford Union include Winston Churchill, Queen Elizabeth and Mother Teresa. He released the "David Gandy Men's Style Guide" mobile app in 2010 which offered style and clothing advice to men and which ultimately hit Top 3 in the Lifestyle market.[23]

In September 2011, Gandy was named the spokesman for the Martini’s “Luck Is An Attitude” campaign, launching their model-search competition on the Spanish Steps of Rome, which were opened specifically for the event.[24] He was appointed to serve on the British Fashion Council's Committee to launch "London Collections: Men" as part of London Fashion Week 2012.[25]

During the 2012 Summer Olympics closing ceremony, Gandy was the only male to walk the Union Jack-shaped catwalk featuring British fashions, alongside models Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Jourdan Dunn, Lily Donaldson, Georgia May Jagger, Karen Elson and Stella Tennant. For the occasion, he wore a gold bespoke suit by British designer Paul Smith.[26] Gandy was invited to the Oxford Union once again on 19 November 2012 with Alex Bilmes, Editor of Esquire to discuss "The importance of men's fashion."[27]

On 28 April 2013, Gandy participated in the 2013 Vogue Festival as part of a panel discussing, "Too Fat, Too Thin, Will We Ever Be Content?" The panel, chaired by Vogue's editor-in-chief, Fiona Golfar, also included model Daisy Lowe, child star Patsy Kensit and Vogue contributing editor Christa D’Souza.[28]

Writing and other pursuits

David Gandy and Yasmin Le Bon - 2013 Mille Miglia

Since February 2011, Gandy has regularly written a blog for British Vogue where he discusses his career, fashion/style, cars, antiques and life in London.[29] He is also an official car reviewer for British GQ.[30] In October 2011, London's Evening Standard invited Gandy to be guest writer/editor of their Men's Issue.[31] His body has inspired fitness-industry interviews, exercise videos as well as his own fitness app which was released in Dec, 2012.[32][33]

After receiving his racing license in 2012, Gandy was invited to be one of the drivers in the 2013 Mille Miglia (“1,000 Mile”) race in Italy. Each year, the three-day event passes through nearly 200 Italian towns from Brescia to Rome and back, recreating the original races which took place between 1927 and 1957. He and his co-driver, Yasmin Le Bon, were part of “Team Jaguar”, driving a 1950 XK120. Early in the race, Gandy and Le Bon were “pushed off the road by a competitor” which caused body damage to the fender and side of the vintage car. They re-entered the race, ultimately finishing in 158th place out of 415 cars.[34]

On 12 September 2013, The Daily Telegraph launched a new men's lifestyle section called "Telegraph Men". They announced that Gandy would be a contributing columnist.[35]
