The brunette said: “I didn’t have fashion magazines, but as a teenager one of my favourite stores was a secondhand one.

“I would buy men’s underwear and ballgowns and pair them together. That was my look, it was funny.

“I feel so much joy going into a little store and looking through all these pieces that belonged to somebody else, perhaps many, many decades ago.

The history of them and the story they bring in their fabric of the women or men, because I buy both men’s and women’s clothing, that have carried them. I love the thought of that.”

“And then, when the whole universe of fashion opened up to me and I started working as a model, that was when I gained a broader experience with fashion and clothing.”

Speaking to HELLO! Fashion Monthly she explained that she is passionate about recycling clothes.

She added: “Maybe partly because I’m Danish, which is a country that was one of the first in the world to get into that whole mindset. But it is environmentally absolutely necessary.”
