My New York : Parker Kit Hill (S1: EP4) | V Magazine

Описание: Growing up in rural Texas, Parker Kit Hill always had his eyes set on the Big Apple. At 17, Hill relocated to the bustling city after earning a spot at the prestigious Joffrey Ballet School. "I remember on the plane ride to New York, as soon as the plane took off from Texas, I was just like, 'I'm done. I'm never looking back. My life has officially started,'" Hill recounts. Perfecting his pointe while managing city life on a tight budget, Hill amassed an impressive following on the now defunct social media platform Vine—thanks to his hilariously viral content, of course. Since then, the multi-hyphenate has worn many hats as he navigates the ins and outs of the city—acting, modeling, social media, and everything in between. Not only serving looks for millions of followers, Hill has walked the runway for brands like Sandy Liang and Christopher John Rogers. Surrounded by fashion, creativity, and an overwhelming sense of self expression, Hill's love for New York City is stronger than ever. "New York represent[s] freedom, wholesomeness, and that there's more out there," Hill says. "There's a world beyond your hometown. There's this amazing city sitting right [here]. You just have to get on a plane."
