Joe S talks about gherkins and cats in clothes

26 July 2011

We talk to Joe Sanders (D1) about modelling, gherkins and cats in clothes. Yeah.


How did you get into modelling?

I got in to modeling after I was scouted at a few festivals and had broken my arm and had to stop mountain biking. It seemed like another way to earn some money! I have now been doing it for almost two years and find it really good fun!

What are you passionate about?

Well, I'm going to study history and french next year at universtiy and have a passion for history as it's an insight into our past and such a vast subject, that there is an almost infinate depth to the subject.

What do you do when you're not modelling?

I love to read. I try and read a book or so a week but apart from that playing my guitar and riding my bike and also watching Fraser!

What is your favorite modelling experience to date?

Going to France to work for Adidas was pretty cool as we got to go and play in the snow for two days.


What is fashion to you?

A bunch of clothes..

Describe where you'd like to see yourself in 5 years time

Hopefully doing a masters degree, and have a slamming hot girl friend (standard).

Describe a perfect weekend

Errrrm well Friday night out in Brighton with the lads. Early Saturday flight to the alps for a spot of mountain biking, then Saturday pop down to Spain for some kind of music festival. Then Sunday... chill the fuck out.
