How often do you hear a child say, with much conviction, that he dreams to become a fashion model when he grows up? We dare say you never do. Ridzman Zidaine wanted to become a policeman at one point – “... which only lasted a day,” he says, with a smirk on his face – and that was before band drummer and footballer came into the picture. “I’d describe myself as an introvert with extroverted tendencies who is also a sports maniac,” he says. “My father encouraged me to play football when I was young, which explains why I was named after a French football legend.”
“How about modelling?” I ask. A noticeable sense of excitement immediately fills the air. Confidence, too. “I believe I speak for almost every model when I say that it’s always nice to be in front of the camera. I mean, who wouldn’t want to give modelling a shot if the opportunity arises?” he says. “Modelling is a significant part of the fashion industry and it is also important to understand that models present the concept that a brand wishes to portray. Models, in many ways, bring the fashion world to life.” And there is validity to his point.
Ridzman describes his personal style as down-to-earth with a distinct inclination for pure-neutral tones. He prefers colours like brown and green, as well as an all-black ensemble. And his must-have? His favourite cologne that he brings with him wherever he goes.
