Donald Carmichael and his unique blend of sensuality and masculinity finally took off with becoming the main face of the hip hop clothing line Parrish Nation. For the last two seasons, this Harlem native, has managed to use his good looks and charming demeanor to snag the Parrish Nation national campaign and numerous editorials ... while unsigned. He has appeared in Vibe, Source, XXL and Complex magazines and been photographed by countless respected photographers. Donald has walked fashion week for designers like Edwing D'angelo and Nico and Adrian. Currently he is represented by Level 1 Management.



Donald walked into my studio space wanting to do one thing.... make something hot! I wanted to do images that would catapult him out of the traditional urban catagory that so many agents/ bookers tend to place black male models. Donald has an amazing body and had no issues about showing it off. I enjoyed working with him and I can't wait to see where his career goes next.
