That's pretty much what happened to Joe Collier, a young Brit who's managed to keep his Mancunian sense of cool despite his modeling career's meteoric rise. Don't get him wrong\u2014he does enjoy the thrill of a runway show and the great travel perks that come with this job, but at the end of the day he'd be just as happy if he was at home playing golf with the boys.\n\nAge: 21\n\nHeight: 6'2\n\nHometown: Manchester, England\n\nAgency: New York Models\n\nHow were you discovered? I was shopping in Manchester Town Centre with my little sister.\n\nCareer highlight: Going to Shanghai for the Hugo Boss show. It was a great experience to visit a place so far from home.\n\nDo you prefer runway or photo shoots? Both have their perks, but I'd say photo shoots because you're there for the whole day with some pretty chill folk, usually in a great location.\n\nThe craziest thing you've ever been asked to model: The are some pretty crazy ideas of what fashion actually is, so I've worn quite a few strange things, but lipstick and high heels in a men's show I did was the craziest.\n\nBest piece of swag you got to keep: I've got a lovely trench coat from Todd Snyder, which has kept me warm on many a winter's day.\n\nYour favorite designer: Too many. I like Phillip Lim's style, but I'm pretty traditional so I'd go with Giorgio Armani.\n\nDescribe your style in three words or less: English.\n\nIf you could raid anyone's closet, living or dead, it would be: Liam Gallagher's\u2014now that would be interesting.\n\nHow do you stay in shape? I try to get to the gym at least 4-5 times a week.\n\nIf you weren't modeling you'd be: Playing golf.\n\nYou're best quality: Honesty.\n\nYou're worst quality: Honesty.\n\nThe song/album/artist getting a lot of play on your iPod right now: The Kooks, a band I used to listen to a few years ago has had a little resurgence on the old iPod recently.\n\nBest piece of advice you've ever been given? If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing well\u2026and life's too short to hate.\n\nfacebook dialogPinterestdetails-blog-collier-2.jpgPhotos courtesy of New York Models\n\n\u2022 \u2022 \u2022\n\n\u2014Todd Plummer, follow him toddkingston"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
