Chiseled features, a suave debonair, a stylish humanitarian advocating personal style, and a healthy lifestyle. For Italian native Carlo Sestini life is anything, but ordinary.

In and out of top Ateliers and jet-setting across Europe, the menswear maven unveils all things luxury lifestyle and fashion. The twenty-five-year-old model and digital influencer is proof that like style’s never-ceasing need to evolve, an enthusiast in fashion never ceases to innovate.

No longer are the gatekeepers of the fashion industry defined by decades of apparel design experience or years behind the pages of high-end magazines. Today marks the reigns of the fashion world in the hands of digital influencers and social media trendsetters like Carlo Sestini, a dapper man always with one hand in luxury and one hand in fashion.

Based in London, the sculpted socialite grew up in Florence and moved to Switzerland to compete for skiing in Italy — the start to his other passion, fitness. “Most people don’t know that I used to ski professionally for Italy. My favorite past time is going to the gym. It makes me feel so much better both physically and mentally and makes me much more productive,” revealed Sestini. With that effortless ‘cool guy’ persona, the polished fashion connoisseur has always been passionate about this ever-changing and illustrious industry. “I love getting dressed up and sharing content on my social media, slowly it transformed from a hobby of mine into a career,” heartened the jet-setter.

No stranger to the insecurities endured in young adulthood, the advocate encourages his following to feel comfortable in their own skin and to banish the judgment of others. “I also value being able to use my platform for great things,” expressed the influencer, “such as promoting charities or sending positive messages to my audience, wherein a social media-driven world sometimes the messages aren’t always positive.”

In an often considered female-centric industry, the masculine trailblazer noticed and encouraged the element of self-expression in this personal and influential art of style. “Fashion allows you to present yourself in a way that makes you feel confident and comfortable. I think with social media the number of male influencers is growing steadily, however, I don’t find it a challenge, as I stay true to my own style, personality, and content. I just love what I do! With social media, I believe gender doesn’t matter anymore and everyone has their own voice,” shared the Italian entrepreneur.

In some ways, the category “male influencer” is an unexplored market providing an array of unique opportunities and experiences. His advice? “Stay true to your own personal style while also having fun with fashion and be kind.” It is that raw, honest authenticity and humble kindness that will distinguish yourself from others. More than a trendsetter, Sestini is an influencer expertly crafting a signature of classic and masculine with the perfect touch of formal.

The world traveler finds inspiration for his personal style from each newly explored destination. “I recently went to Hong Kong and was so inspired by the fashion there. I feel they are quite ahead of the game and have their own distinct aesthetic which is very cool and eclectic. I tend not to follow trends, I more stick to classic masculine silhouettes,” he revealed.

Keeping his handsome fate close to his designer belt, Sestini made light of some exciting projects on the horizons of his already less the conventional life, “and I cannot wait to announce them,” teased the menswear maven. “You’ll have to stay tuned!”
