Career

Cheshire was born in Stevenage, Hertfordshire and grew up in Hitchin. His father was a fireman[2] and Oliver aspired to be a firefighter or actor.[3][4]

Cheshire was scouted by Select Model Management at the age of 15.[5] Soon after, he gave up his drama studies for a career as a model and appeared in a campaign for Calvin Klein.[6] Cheshire subsequently modelled for Jack Wills, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Orlebar Brown, Stella McCartney, Missoni, Hackett, Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister Co., Vivienne Westwood, Gap Inc. and Marks and Spencer.[7] Marks and Spencer reported a fifty per cent increase in the sale of men's swimwear while Cheshire was fronting their campaign.[8]

As a writer, Cheshire has reported on Men's Fashion Week for GQ magazine and writes a fashion blog in his spare time.[5] In 2015, he was named one of GQ's 50 best dressed British men.[9]

In 2019, Cheshire released the menswear brand, Ché.[10][11]

Personal life

Cheshire has been in a relationship with singer-songwriter Pixie Lott, reportedly since 2010. The pair were engaged in November 2016.[12]
