Sigrid Agren for AnOther Magazine 25 Photography by Lina Scheynius
French-Swiss model
Sigrid Agren features in the new issue of AnOther Magazine, winding and leaping in front of Lina Scheynius's lens amid the Oxfordshire countryside, styled by Katie Shillingford in Bottega Veneta tassels, Marc Jacob swirls and rippling Gucci. Gaining popularity for her sharp features and willowy frame, this season she has walked for designers including Lanvin, Prada, Rodarte and Dolce & Gabbana, and has previously fronted campaigns for Prada, Calvin Klein and Gucci. Here, AnOther speaks to Agren about the shoot, travelling and home comforts.
What were your highlights from the shoot?
The location was quite stunning, an old boarding school. Even though it had been abandoned for years, you still had old books and computers in the classrooms, beds in the dorms, and it was totally quiet. I can assure you that shooting in there at night was very spooky.
Which was your favourite outfit?
I loved the Gucci pink dress, and it looked beautiful when I moved the arms.
Where do you feel most at home?
Every time I come home, it is the same great pleasure to lie down in my bed. That's when I think "home sweet home".
Travelling a lot, do you have something you bring with you everywhere that reminds you of home?
No, I try to force myself to travel light, otherwise I tend to bring a million things that I end up never using!
What are three things that make your house a home?
My books, my scented candles and the pictures of my friends and family on the walls.
