Noah Mills

Early life

Mills was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He was raised in Baltimore, Maryland, before he went to boarding school in Canada and Australia. After graduating boarding school in Canada, he planned to attend college to study psychology. However, a local scout approached him one day and asked if he'd be interested in modelling. He soon moved to New York and a few weeks later, he booked his first runway show, walking for Gucci.

He is the youngest of five children, with two older brothers and two older sisters.

Career

After beginning his career in 2001, Mills progressed into working with a number of fashion companies, most notably Wilhelmina Models, from which he started his model life.

He worked Dolce & Gabbana, Versace and Michael Kors shows for many seasons. In 2009, Mills appeared in the naked Dolce & Gabbana Anthology Fragrance campaign with a number of other models including Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell and Tyson Ballou.

Mills became one of the models to star in Lacoste's "new look" campaign in January 2011, a different advertising concept under the new tagline, "Unconventional Chic". The ads were shot by Mert and Marcus, showing models wearing white Lacoste polo shirts worn over fancy black evening wear.
