Jones is posting photos with captions like “Validation from real supermodels.” Jones celebrates his debut alongside supermodel Luka Sabbat.
Jones is also in Paris with Harlem native Bloody Osiris. Jones is rightfully celebrating his recent success. With Jim Jones, he is also honoring legends Kanye West and the only Virgil Abloh. Osiris said, “You know I’m a model now. Kanye is posting a picture of me, lol. ”
Osiris also said in another post, “Yeah, if you need a Model for your next drop, I’m here. You can call my agent! Seriously, I’m grateful. You are setting the trends right now. This mention was big for fashion. RiP @virgilabloh, you kept your word even in heaven.”
