PHOTOS: When They Were Young (And Brand New)

GRATUITOUS SKIN — Some of our favorite shots of models come from their first sit-down with an agency, where undressing for a few snaps is standard practice. It’s often the first step in transforming a random guy on the street into the next fragrance campaign star. Other times, established models simply revisit the pose. Herewith, three of our favorites from the “nonchalant” category: Ryan (shot by Samuel Zakuto), Sam Yearsley (repped by Click Models), and Ellis McCreadie (at Major Model).
