The Queen of Paris Haute Couture

Frida Gustavsson  (Swedish beauty who started modelling at 16) is my absolute favourite model. I wouldn't say ever, because the icons like Kate Moss and Twiggy are a given - but in terms of young, working models, Frida tops every list. She's walked in hundreds of shows, including Valentino, Chanel, Lanvin, opening and closing. She's been in American Vogue, ELLE, and has won a Model of the Year award at the ELLE Sweden Awards (which she obviously deserved). There's nothing this girl can't do, and on top of that, everything she does she does with an effortless cool, that you can see is 100% natural.
So, after reading that embarrassing gushy paragraph, you can only imagine how ecstatic I was when I discovered Frida would be doing Paris HC Spring 2012! Paris + HC + Frida = perfection out of this world. She's already walked for Christian Dior, Giambattista Valli and Chanel (wooo) so far, as well as closing Armani Prive. If I've achieved half as much as that by the time I'm 18 I'll be happy. She is the queen of Paris Haute Couture.
