Last fall, 21-year-old Konrad Annerud caught major attention (opens in new tab) for his remarkable resemblance to a certain Hollywood A-lister, Leonardo DiCaprio. With his flopped-over, dirty blonde mane and brooding, bad boy gaze, Annerud's looks harken back to a 90s-era Leo—which is arguably the best Leo of all. So it's safe to say, we haven't seen the last of him yet.

The swoon-worthy Swede is swiftly parlaying his newfound Internet fame into a real career. In addition to reportedly signing a recording contract with Universal to pursue his solo music career, Annerud can now add model to his résumé. The DiCaprio doppelgänger is making his professional modeling debut, featuring in the Ralph Lauren Purple lookbook for Barneys New York. According to Fashionista (opens in new tab), the deal was arranged entirely on Instagram, as Annerud is not signed with an agency—but we're guessing that won't be the case for long.
