Walt Jr. Is A Runway Model Now, Folks

by Sienna Fantozzi

He may be most well known for his work on Breaking Bad, but RJ Mitte (better known as Walt. Jr.), made his runway debut on Sunday, and it's just as bizarre as you'd expect it to be.

Mitte, who is signed with Elite Models, had the coveted spot of opening and closing the Vivienne Westwood fashion show during Milan Men's Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2016. He may play the son of a chemistry teacher turned meth cook on television, but in real life, he clearly knows how to work the heck out of a breastplate. Wait — what?!

For one look in the show, the 22-year-old actor rocked a distressed dark blue sweatsuit with a breastplate over it, which is basically a bag slung over his shoulders, hitting at breast level, with breasts on it. And as wack-a-doo as it is, he actually looks pretty darn great. I guess the popular shows ending hasn't slowed his career too much.

Mitte took to Twitter after the show, sharing a selfie with the caption "thank u 4 having me!" And from what we can see from his debut in the show, this is only the beginning of a great modeling career for RJ.
