My mother agent noticed me at the age of 13 when I was attending fashion studio classes organised by my agency.

What have you been up to since you got scouted?

Finishing high school and working at the same time. I’ve been working in Tokyo 4 months in total, in Milan, and finally got to NY a few months ago.

What’s your favourite thing that you’ve worn on a shoot or in a show that you wish was yours?

Calvin Klein silk flower dress from the SS16 collection.

Who would be your dream photographer to work with? Or your dream designer to work for?

Peter Lindberg, I find the inspiration in his works again and again, people and their feelings are so real on his pictures, he looks at everybody he shoots from his particular side, so you can easily recognize the style, it seems like I can’t stop admiring. Dream designer? Let it be D&G, these guys know better than anyone else how to make a woman feel herself beautiful.

What do you do when you’re not modelling?

My university studies, singing and playing piano, reading professor Dawkins’ books and eating pancakes. Oh, and listening to music all the time.

What’s been your favourite moment as a model so far?

It is a hard question. Probably the shooting for the advertising in Japan where I was wearing the Japanese national wedding kimonos. They were incredibly beautiful and incredibly heavy.

Which city would you love to live in?

I don’t know yet, I love NY for now, but if talking about future I would prefer some warm place with mild climate right by the ocean coast.

Do you prefer shoots or shows?

Both!

Who’s your favourite female model and who is your favourite male model?

Tyra Banks and Zoolander!

Can you tell us about how you got scouted?

When I was 12 I was tall, lanky, and looked like a cross between a tree frog and a baby deer, and I that’s when I signed with my mother agency in Nashville. I wasn’t really old enough to model yet so they had me doing weird stuff like a Josh Groban music video (AKA my big break) and auditioning for kid shows like veggie tales. I met Kwok from The Society when I was 15 and he was at Marilyn. Upon meeting him, I knew I had to be wherever he was, so when he started the society, they brought me on. I distinctly remember being in my sophomore English class and getting a text under my desk from my mother agent saying, “Kwok wants you!” That was definitely one of the happiest days of my life. started from the bottom now we here.

What have you been up to since you got scouted?

High school. Gag me with a spoon.

What’s your favourite thing that you’ve worn on a shoot or in a show that you wish was yours?

I got to wear this red lace Valentino couture gown once in an editorial and it was a moment where I genuinely considered trying to take it home without anybody noticing.

Who would be your dream photographer to work with? Or your dream designer to work for?

Tim Walker and Alexander McQueen. I live for the moments in my job when I get to be someone other than myself.

What do you do when you’re not modelling?

I watch a lot of fail compilations on YouTube, make food with my beloved crockpot, and listen to Joanna Newsom 97% of the time. Mostly I think about how much I love Bill Murray.

What’s been your favourite moment as a model so far?

Errrrrrh thats a toughie. I’d have to say I more so value the moments outside of work that have been brought to me by my job. I’ve made so many lifelong friends through this job and get to do a lot of things most people don’t get to do, and I’m so grateful for everything that’s come my way.

Which city would you love to live in?

Tokyo hands down. I lived there for a bit when I was 17 and there’s no other place like it. I get homesick for it a lot. A lot of my best memories happened in Tokyo. I loved feeling like a fish out of water.

Do you prefer shoots or shows?

Depends on the day. They’re such different categories.

Who’s your favourite female model and who is your favourite male model?

Karen Elson is my inspo for life. Her whole career is what I aspire to. She lives in Nashville (my hometown) and she put her number in my phone at a party one night. It’s a little scary having your idol’s number in your phone because I have the urge to text her like a stalker ALL the time. Fave male model… Liam Little… he’s sitting next to me as I answer these questions so I’m obligated to give him a shoutout. He’s playing some bluesy tune on the guitar for me right now. He’s really good at painting and even better at making dad jokes. His eyebrows and self-given tattoos give me life. We have good times.

Brooklyn-based designer Samantha Pleet has become known for her twisted tailoring, 50’s inspired silhouettes and her otherworldly campaigns. After studying at The Pratt Institute, Pleet went on to debut her namesake collection in 2006. She is also recognised for her eco-friendly attitude towards fashion – often using organic materials and making her garments in New York City. Each season, Pleet collaborates with other creative minds to create installations, films and editorials and SS16 is no exception.

Pleet’s SS16 collection previews in this campaign titled ‘A Lovely Haunted House’. The images, shot by Amber Mahoney, follow the dreamy vibes of her previous campaigns. The collection is inspired by all things fanatical – ghosts, dreams and visions. The designs feature 50’s-inspired detailing in the form of cute collars, cut-outs and buttons and the haunted house theme is translated into embroidered door frames and window panes. The collection also features ethereal prints by painter Jenna Gribbon.
