Hudson Williams can officially add runway model to his résumé.
The Heated Rivalry star, 24, showed off his sexy strut at the DSquared2 show during Men's Fashion Week in Milan on Jan. 16. The designers — Dean Caten and Dan Caten — touted the Fall-Winter 2026 show as coed and featured both male and female models.
For his turn down the runway, where he opened the winter-themed show, Williams rocked double denim (fitting for the Canadian star and the Canada-born fashion house) with high-fashion snow boots and a hat hooked to his belt loop.

The runway was decked out in fake snow and flanked by branded walls that resembled the boards running around an ice rink. Models wore all manner of winterwear and performancewear, including oversize puffer coats, sweaters, shining corsets and cozy sweatsets.

At the end of the show, Williams was the last to take the runway for one final look at his outfit. All the models posed at the top of the runway while Dean and Dan took their own turn down the catwalk while perched atop two shirtless male models.

Williams, who stars as gay professional hockey player Shane Hollander in the show streaming on HBO Max, has had a banner few weeks, especially when it comes to his fashion. Just days ago, he attended his first Golden Globes, turning the red carpet into a runway.
He wore a white peak-lapel dinner jacket trimmed in grosgrain, paired with a white silk evening shirt, black evening trousers and a white grosgrain cummerbund, all by Giorgio Armani. He added a Bulgari necklace for some shine and Christian Louboutin shoes.
During the ceremony, he and his costar Connor Storrie — who plays bisexual professional hockey player Ilya Rozanov and Shane's love interest in the show — took the stage to present an award.
The pair presented the Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role - Television award together to Adolescence star Erin Doherty at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif.
After a security check of the perimeter by some UFC fighters, Williams and Storrie, 25, entered the stage together and joked about their rapid rise in fame.
"It’s a little nerve-racking here being here at our first Golden Globes," Storrie said.
In response, Williams encouraged his costar to "just take a deep breath and picture everyone in the audience, you know..."

When Storrie told Williams that picturing the audience in their underwear wouldn't work because "everyone’s seen us seen us" naked, he then gave out a shoutout to those who likely have streamed the sexy series: "Their trainers have, and their moms have, and their daughters have."
"Hi, moms!" Williams greeted the show's loyal fans. "Hi, daughters!" added Storrie.
The popular Heated Rivalry, based on the books by Rachel Reid, has already been greenlit for season 2. Reid also announced she'd be adding another Shane-Ilya book to the series.
