A jealous Louis Vuitton model is facing a life sentence for brutally stabbing a rival to death after become envious of his success.
George Koh, 24, had clashed with victim Harry Uzoka, even boasting he'd slept with his rival's girlfriend, fellow catwalk starlet, Ruby Campbell.
Koh had been branded a "fake" by Mr Uzoka, who had warned him to stop copying him in heated social media exchanges.

The victim was described in court as "the country's most famous black model", who had won contracts with Mercedes and Levi's.
He arranged a confrontation to settle the row with Koh 'face to face' in Shepherd's Bush on 11 January this year.
Mr Uzoka, 25, recruited his flatmate, Adrian Harper, as back-up and the pair made their way around the corner to Ollgar Close armed with a dumbbell bar each.
But Koh was waiting with a knife in each hand accompanied by 'big, burly, strong' pals Merse Dikanda, wielding a 'terrifying' machete, and personal trainer Jonathan Okigbo, both also 24.
'It is not difficult to work out which side won and which side lost,' said prosecutor Richard Horwell QC.
Mr Harper managed to escape but Harry was quickly cornered around a parked red VW Polo and knifed in the heart by Koh before he managed to run back to his flat.
Koh, of York Way, Camden, northwest London, denied murder but was convicted unanimously by the jury.
He had earlier admitted possessing two knives on the day of the attack.
Dikanda, of no fixed address, denied murder, possessing a machete on the day of the attack and possessing a bladed article in a separate incident two weeks later but was found guilty on all three counts.
Okigbo, of Trevithic House, York Rise, Camden, was cleared of murder but found guilty of manslaughter.
All three were remanded in custody ahead of sentence on 21 September.
