Alright, so I wanted to figure out where this model guy, Jordan Barrett, is actually from. Kept seeing his face pop up, you know? In magazines, ads online, all that fashion stuff. He seemed to be everywhere suddenly.

Honestly, I didn’t have a clue at first. He’s got that look, you know? Could be from anywhere. My first guess? Maybe somewhere in Europe? Or the UK? A lot of these high-fashion models seem to come from over there.
So, I finally decided to just look it up. Wasn’t doing anything important, so I just sat down and did a quick search. Typed something basic like “jordan barrett where from” into the search bar.
Finding Out the Details
It spat back a bunch of results, obviously. Some articles, interviews, little bio pages. I clicked on a couple of them.
And pretty quickly, I saw the answer kept repeating: Australia. Specifically, some sources mentioned Byron Bay. Huh. Australia. Didn’t really peg him as an Aussie initially, but there it was.
- Saw mentions of him being scouted super young.
- Apparently, it happened when he was just 14.
- The story goes some guy from a big agency, IMG, found him in a grocery store. Wild.
Reading a bit more, it seems he had zero idea about the fashion world before that. Just a kid shopping, and boom, next thing you know he’s doing campaigns for huge names. Think brands like Tom Ford, Balmain, Versace, Moschino, Coach… pretty big jump.

He was even the face for that 1 Million perfume for a while. I remember seeing those ads. And apparently, he even designed some eyewear with Chrome Hearts. So yeah, he’s done a lot since that day in the grocery store back in Australia.
So, that’s the scoop I found. Jordan Barrett, the model you see everywhere? He’s from Down Under. Australia. Just thought I’d share how I tracked that down. Simple curiosity, quick search, and there you have it. Mystery solved, for me anyway.
