The September issues are generally considered to be of particular significance, and Elle Sweden patriotically chose a Swedish national for theirs. Frida Gustavsson features, wearing the season’s trend towards baroque inspired embroidery.

Frida Gustavsson’s off-duty style is elegant beyond her years. Here she was spotted after the Christian Dior show in Paris wearing a ladylike chocolate brown coat over a grey knit and shirt; but the twist of an embellished choker with leather fastenings gives the outfit the sparkle it needs to keep it from feeling corporate. A studded leather clutch adds the element of youth.

A number of spring 2012′s colours were whipped up from the bottoms of ice-cream tubs and fairy floss machines and dolloped into the season. Marshmallows, macaroons, iced cupcakes and fresh summer sorbet: if it’s soft and sweet, then it’s inspiring the feminine side of fashion for spring. Taking the colour trend to a literal level is photographer Daniel Sannwald for POP Magazine, turning Frida Gustavsson…

Charlotte Free amidst the madness of Hieronymus Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights? Kayka Ko as Tamara de Lempicka’s Art Deco driver? Diana Moldovan caught up in the surrealist world of Dali? As far as model show packages go, IMG’s latest is a work of art. Literally. The artworks themselves may not be original but the concept of pastiching them to model photos as showcards feels…

Topped by a barrel-wave of rockabilly hair, Frida Gustavsson stars in the summer 2012 look book from high street chain H&M. It’s a particularly enticing collection for anyone bitten by the ’50s bug; vintage influences melded with sporty, modern silhouettes and fabrics. On top of my personal want list: sporty panelled crop tops in high-sheen finish and structured cropped bustiers.

Another day and another off-duty model street style. Models just know how to strike their best, don’t they? Frida Gustavsson‘s sunflower yellow shift dress is an inspiration from the 1950s, while her bumblebee sunglasses take us to the Swinging Sixties. The motorcycle leather jacket and suede boots contribute more fuel to the burning style fire.

See the words ‘casting call’ in a video title and you expect some fairly inane content of models saying their names, their agencies, and maybe walking back and forth a few times. I know that’s what I was expecting of this Rodarte casting call video. But I was pleasantly surprised, not to mention highly entertained. Who would have thought that asking models some simple questions…

With dramatic makeup against Frida Gustavsson‘s porcelain skin and equally dramatic outfits from Jean Paul Gaultier’s archive, there was no need for decorative backdrops in this editorial for Stil Magazine. Instead, the utter starkness of the white background is the perfect compliment. Against it Frida can traverse the eras; moving from glamorous dress to glamorous dress, from echoes of the 1920s to the type of…
