She was featured on Huffington Post, for some reason. :D

There's a video on the site too and you can rate her outfits (they aren't doing very well so far):

Stef Van Der Laan, Dutch Model, Is Inspired By Disney Characters And Her Grandmother (PHOTOS, VIDEO)


Stef Van Der Laan, IMG model, says that when she puts on something happy, she is happy. It's hard not to smile when you see her tutu from the H&M children's department juxtaposed against an army parka and white "cloggy" wedge sandals, or in her knee socks with a thrifted floral 1930s dress and lace-up combat boots. Stef says that her ADHD leaves her dreamy, thinking a lot, and in her own world. When people-watching on the street or train, she can make up a whole story about their life, "even if it's not true." It seems fitting that Stef has the creative mind to tell her own story with her wardrobe.





WATCH




She has many unique pieces from her Dutch grandmother's "eccentric" clothing store in their hometown, like an embroidered cloth belt and Moroccan poison ring. And then there are the storybook charms around her neck, a very little Bible with her boyfriend's phone number in it, a shell from her best friend that is from Sydney, and the key to her parent's home (so that it is always close to her). Dressed in a petticoat and designer plaid hunting booties, she has the grace of Tinkerbell, but with some urban toughness mixed in. Stef's favoite chanel is Disney and she loves to laugh when prompted by the laughing machine on TV shows. But most charming of all to me is the vision of her failed efforts while working as a waitress in a pizza restaurant. More suitable for a part as the Mad Hatter, she "was standing with a cup of tea all the time, kind of dreamy. All of the other waitresses would be at their tables already, doing their jobs. The day manager would have to say to me, 'Just walk around and pretend you're doing something.'" Seems like Stef should definitely stick to fashion editorials, where she can do what she does so well, interpreting the mood of clothes.

Hmmm... not definitely the last one... She's in the latest Dutch Cosmopolitan (the orange one, with Jennifer Lopez on the cover), at the moment. I saw it in the library.

In general, I thought the mag wasn't good enough to buy. But is there somebody in The Netherlands/Belgium who has got this edition of Cosmopolitan, and wants to scan Stef's editorial?

If the answer is 'yes', thanks already. :)

It's taken many years, but finally: a huge fashion show. :)
 
She's like a more mysterious and mature Romee Strijd. Love the shape of her face and congrats for finally walking something big.
