In
little less than a year, the renowned Sri Lankan model Adam Flamer-Caldera has
become one of Ford Model’s most prized and sought after professional models.
This dynamic young man is currently on track to become one of New York’s rising
stars in the modelling sphere, all whilst studying to become a doctor at one of
the most prestigious medical university’s in the world. The year is still not
over, and it seems like Adam has already accomplished everything a model in New
York can dream of.
Having finished New York Fashion Week, where
he once again walked the catwalk for some of the world’s most iconic brands, he
went on to do a series of prestigious assignments in Brazil for top fashion
brands. Today, he is one of the busiest models at Ford Models. Ford Models is
one of the most renowned modelling agencies in the world and being selected by
such a prestigious agency is in its own right, a great achievement. The
agency’s portfolio features the biggest brands in international fashion and
Adam was one of the 20 young models selected to represent these brands at New
York Fashion Week this year.

This
year alone, the list of brands that Adam has modelled for includes the likes of
Brunello Cucinelli, True Religion jeans, Dolce & Gabbana and Jockey, He is
currently the face of the prestigious department store, Saks Fifth Avenue. He
has also done other prestigious assignments for Nautica, Gant, Mossimo and Greg
Lauren (the nephew of Ralph Lauren). He also just finished a suit shoot for the
prestigious men’s fashion magazine, Esquire. Last year when he was still a part
time model he was featured in the December issue of Esquire which had George
Clooney on the cover.
There
is one more question that lingers in our minds, now that Adam is conquering the
modelling world, will he pursue a career in Hollywood as well? With one Indie
film already in production, the glamorous world of Hollywood and acting seem
incredibly close. With his natural talent, dedication and fearless
perseverance, the sky is the limit for Adam.
Adam
Flamer-Caldera’s career first took off on the local catwalks of Colombo Fashion
Week; he also made his mark as the face of Arugam Bay Beachwear. Adam is flying
down later this month to participate in the CFW Resort Wear Show which is
taking place from 1 to 4 October 2014. Despite his busy schedule, Adam is
missing a few important assignments in New York so that he can come home and be
part of Colombo Fashion Week once again. Colombo Fashion Week provides a
platform for Sri Lankan fashion designers and models to showcase in an
international arena, the show helped Adam kick start his modelling career and
it is an initiative which he truly loves and supports whole-heartedly.
The
HSBC Colombo Fashion Week Resort Show, now in its third year, premiers from the
1 to 4 October 2014 at
Jetwing Blue and Jetwing Beach. Those
