interview from ONTD
Here's an interview I recently conducted with fashion model Johanna Stickland. She's a 15 year old Canadian represented by Mode Models (the same people who represent Heather Marks and Julia Dunstall). Johanna is currently the face of Jil Sander, and last season she walked for a number of top fashion labels, including Chloe, Givenchy, John Galliano, and Christian Dior.

Where are you from? Saskatchewan (the praries).
Where do you live now? Mostly New York but also in Calgary.
Favorite show (that you've done)? Chloe definetly! The clothes were less serious and more fun, plus the backstage environment was so different - in a good way! We were all dancing and just having a good time.
Favorite photoshoot (that you've done)? The one I did a little while ago with Willy Vanderperre...the clothes were so cool.
Describe your personal style: Mostly just simple black t-shirts and skinny black jeans with Converse, but I always try to add a bright color with a scarf, ring, bag, etc.

If you weren't modeling, what would you like to be doing? I'd be in school chilling with my best friends.
