French Model Tom Nicon found dead in MilanTom Nicon, 22, has died in Milan on Friday after the French model apparently fell from his apartment window. Tom Nicon, 22, is suspected of jumping after becoming depressed following a split with his girlfriend.

Nicon was a top show model, and had walked for Burberry, Louis Vuitton, Costume National, Versace, Kenzo, Gareth Pugh and Hugo Boss among others.

Nicon’s death was the latest in a series of tragedies that have hit the fashion world during the last year – in November South Korean model Daul Kim, 20, hanged herself in her Paris apartment.

In April American Ambrose Olsen, 24, was found dead in his New York home while last month Marks and Spencer’s model Noemie Lenoir, 30, tried to kill herself in Paris with a lethal drink and drugs cocktail.
