Model Tom Nicon has committed suicide.
The 22-year-old French model - who has also fronted campaigns for Louis Vuitton, Hugo Boss and Versace - reportedly jumped 40 ft. to his death from his apartment window on Friday in Milan, Italy, after splitting from his girlfriend.
Tom, who is currently the face of iconic British brand Burberry, was found dead just hours before the start of Milan’s Men’s Fashion Week.
Designer Donatella Versace has expressed her sadness at the model’s death: “Tom was with us on Friday morning for a final show fitting. He seemed fine and calm. He had already done three or four shows with us and he was a sweet boy. We just can’t understand why he did what he did. We would never have thought he would do something like this. When we heard the news we were all so upset and we still are all so very sad.”

Coming close to following in the late Daul Kim’s footsteps, UK model Noemie Lenoir, 30, was found slumped in a forest on the outskirts of Paris after she was believed to have taken a deadly mix of alcohol and drugs.
The Victoria’s Secret and Gap model was found by her on-again-off-again boyfriend Claude Makelele, who had called emergency services that were called off when Lenoir regained consciousness, only to be found unconscious again by a passerby.
“She had clearly attempted to harm herself and had fallen unconscious. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and treated for the effects of poisoning. It seems that she had made a cry for help. She’s now in a far better condition and recovering,” said a source close to the model.
Many have come to speculate that the model’s troubles lie with her current boyfriend, Swiss millionaire Carl Hirschmann, who is believed to be involved with various extortion and sex scandals.
