Robert Irwin owned the catwalk at Suit Up Runway show for the Melbourne Fashion Festival in Australia! The 20-year-old zookeeper and photographer rocked three different suit looks with a smile so wide that it brightened up the entire room — and even threw people off, as most are used to seeing him in his khakis, which is his usual zookeeper uniform.
On his TikTok and Instagram platforms, he expressed the thrill of the moment for him by saying, “Never imagined I’d be walking the runway, but here we are! Wow, thanks for an amazing night Melbourne Fashion Festival!!”
Social media users were quick to obsess over the conservationist.
One person commented: "Umm what!!! We need to see you on more runways! Like OMG you were born for this."
"God [expletive] Robert stop being great at everything," another person quipped. "Some of us have wives on this app."
The first look he rocked was a matching navy dress shirt, tie, and slacks paired with a speckled bomber jacket and brown boots. The second look gave off sailor vibes, with a white dress shirt and slacks, a black tux vest and black blazer, and a white cardigan tied around his shoulders. He also had thick-framed glasses to complete the sophisticated look.

Just weeks before his runway debut, Robert opened up about his late father, TV personality Steve Irwin. "When you lose someone, a father figure, at such a young age, who is such a commanding presence of positivity and everything that is good in the world, of course all I want is for him to be here for me,” he said, later adding, "I will always feel like I am missing a part of myself, but I never feel like I missed out on anything."
