Surfer and artist Chris Del Moro is the new face of the Baldessarini Spring/Summer 2013 ad campaign. With his long blonde hair and carefree vibe, Del Moro does not fit the traditional gentleman mould but manages to look dapper and debonaire in the label's impeccably tailored suit sets.
The athlete turned model has been a longtime advocate for the protection of the California coastline and has participated in a number of film festivals within his native state.
The Baldessarini Spring/Summer 2013 ad campaign embraces an unconventional vision of beauty and transforms surfer and artist Chris Del Moro from a beach bum with a skateboard to a modern day gentleman with a flair for fun and timeless elegance.
