Bartolomé Chapel launched his modeling career at 16, walking for names like Dior, Valentino, and Raf Simons. Over the years, he has broadened his creative horizons, more recently collaborating with Tiger of Sweden and American Vintage. But Bartolomé is not just a model, he is also a director and set designer, roles that allow him to shape the visual world behind his own image. In his direction and set design projects, he brings the same attention to mood, light, and texture that he applies in front of the camera, crafting atmospheres that feel sculpted, cinematic, and emotionally resonant. His dual vision as model + creative gives him a rare vantage: understanding both how to inhabit the frame and how to construct the frame itself. Whether walking the runway or designing a scene’s backdrop, Bartolomé Chapel continues to build a multifaceted, auteur-driven path in fashion and film.
