To begin, would you like to share how your journey into the fashion world first started?
I was scouted a few times growing up on the streets of Stockholm, but it wasn’t until I was around 14 that I signed with my first agency. I started out doing smaller jobs in Sweden, and a couple of years later I signed with MIKAs, which really opened the door to bigger opportunities. I’m so thankful for everything that followed.
You’ve walked for some of the most iconic maisons like Dior, Chanel, Prada and many others. Is there an aesthetic among them that feels especially close to who you are?
I’ve been really lucky to experience such different worlds, and each house brings out something unique in me. I don’t think there’s just one aesthetic I connect to — I like the balance between them. Chanel feels timeless and feminine, Dior has this soft confidence I really love, and Prada’s playfulness is unexpected and never too perfect. I probably see myself somewhere between that softness and confidence, but still not overly polished.

Front rows are often filled with celebrities. Has there ever been someone in the audience who made you want to scream with excitement while you were walking?
I don’t really see who I’m walking past in the moment, but it’s always surreal knowing that people you’ve only seen on a screen are suddenly right there. I remember at my first Prada show, I had a short moment backstage with Anna Wintour, which felt pretty cool.
Between casting lines and backstage chaos, friendships can unexpectedly blossom. What makes someone instantly likeable to you?
I’m drawn to people who are open‐minded and genuine — the kind of people who make you feel like you can just be yourself. I’ve met so many beautiful people in this industry, and they’re a big part of what makes it special.

You leave the house and realise you’ve forgotten the one accessory that makes you feel like yourself. What is it?
My headphones. I like having something playing in the background. Lately I’ve been into indie rock, but I’ll listen to almost anything depending on the mood.
This job puts you face‐to‐face with your own image. Is there a feature you once struggled to accept, but that you’ve slowly learnt to embrace through seeing yourself in photos?
Growing up, I used to feel a bit uncomfortable always being the tallest in the room. It made me feel like I stood out in a way I wasn’t always sure about. But through this job, I’ve learnt to see it differently — it’s become something that’s appreciated, and it’s given me a lot more confidence.

And on a more personal level, which part of your character do you feel, supports you the most in this line of work?
I think my curiosity and drive support me the most. I’m always interested in learning and understanding the work, and I have a competitive side that pushes me to keep improving without losing the joy in it. I like to think there’s always another step to reach, so I always have something to strive for.
Do you ever imagine yourself, one day, stepping to the other side and becoming a booker?
Honestly, I’d love to understand more about how my agents’ work and what happens behind the scenes. I know how much they put into everything, so seeing that side of the industry would be really interesting to me.

Of all the places you’ve travelled to for work, is there one that made you feel unexpectedly at home?
I’ve always felt drawn to Paris, even before I started modelling. There’s something about the atmosphere that really resonates with me. I’ve always had this quiet thought that I might live there one day, and I’d love to experience a simple, cozy life in Paris at some point in my career.
Doing such a fast‐paced job, when you think about the future, what do you hope, will give you a sense of stability?
Having a sense of home is really important to me. No matter where I am, my family and friends give me that stability, and I find a lot of comfort in small routines that keep me grounded.
