Who knew Paris Fashion Week would be the birthplace of the latest viral meme?

The internet has discovered a clip of a model stomping down the runway during Paris Fashion Week and, of course, they've made memes. The model in question is Leon Dame, who walked for Maison Margiela's Spring 2020 show in Paris, France.

Now we've all imagined ourselves doing our best Naomi Campbell impression down the runway to our favourite track but in reality we're on the way work. Well, Leon has taken it to the next level.

The German male model wore a black leather, sailor-inspired outfit paired with heeled boots. Leon had a intense look in his eye as he closed the show and stomped down the catwalk with serious attitude.

Yes, Leon was serving something, that's for sure. He later revealed that his confident walk was actually the work of choreographer and movement director Pat Boguslawski in an interview with Vogue.

He said: "I already had something on my mind, but I worked it out during the rehearsals with Pat Boguslawski the night before the show."

Once Leon shared the clip on Instagram and the internet got hold of it, his distinctive strut became the perfect content for memes.
