British soul sensation Sam Smith is adding high fashion model to his resume after becoming the new face of Balenciaga menswear.

The 'Stay With Me' hit maker has taken to Twitter to break the news to fans and tease them by sharing a brief black-and-white clip of his modelling debut online.

Making the announcement yesterday, he writes, "Ladies & Gentlemen. The time has come for my first ever collaboration with a fashion house. You ready..."

In the commercial clip, Smith can be seen wearing a suit as he walks through a dark underground space.
