Six months ago I didnt even know who Baptiste Giabiconi was. Now he is the number 1 male model in the world. He has booked multiple campaigns for Chanel. Karl Lagerfeld is one of very few designers who has the power to turn a model into a major star overnight. Baptiste Giabiconi stars in the latest Chanel ads with British Super model Karen Elson.
