Model Minute: Svea Kloosterhoof
by Kelley Hoffman

Svea Kloosterhoof has charmed her way into New York from her native Holland this week. It’s not surprising when you meet the upbeat and elegant PYT. Kloosterhoof, who was a Calvin Klein exclusive, chatted with us about her hippie chic style, Johnny Cash, and her big moment.
ELLE: Tell me about being a CK exclusive.
SK: You do all the looks—I almost got on every single look that was in the show—and they just adjust everything. At one point they didn’t like a dress and there came all kinds of patterns and fabrics. And I gained maybe 20 pounds of fabric, because they were putting so much fabric on it. And it’s an amazing experience because you get to get contact inside of Calvin, like the designer, the stylist—you get contact in a way you don’t get at castings.
ELLE: How have you been keeping your energy up this week?
SK: If you do nothing and you just wait around, your energy just drains away. I keep myself, maybe in my head, doing school work. Listening to music is a good way for me to keep up my energy level. Something rock, or if you’re in a sensitive mood, maybe Johnny Cash. Obviously you need to eat enough. There was one girl only eating salad everyday, and I was like “Oh my gosh how are you doing this?” You need some sugar, you need a little bit of fat, you need all kinds of stuff to get your energy up.
ELLE: What do you like to snack on?
SK: In Holland we have this cookie called Sultana’s—it’s got raisins in it—and it feels kind of healthy when you eat it, but it’s sugar. It’s a energy-upper. It’s my snack I always carry it with me.
ELLE: What do you like about being in New York?
SK: I just love being here. It’s amazing. I’d never seen a skyscraper before I came here so I was amazed by all the high buildings. I loved Soho, all the old things like the wooden windows, the doors, everything. I love just New York itself. And especially being at Calvin Klein everyday, walking along Times Square to go to Calvin, just those little moments, that was my big moment.
ELLE: Did you have a favorite look from Calvin?
SK: The very last dress. The golden, shiny one. I put it on for looks and was like, “Oh my god, this is so gorgeous!” The fabric is amazing, and the dress design.
ELLE: What do you like to wear off-duty?
SK: I had ripped up stockings yesterday and cut-off red jeans. So it’s all sort of things. But when I’m in school, I’m the hippie. I wear long dresses in the summer, have headbands, things like that. Just a little bit out of the ordinary.
ELLE: How do you like to wear your hair and makeup?
SK: I just like my hair being normal. Maybe blow dry it or iron it, I like my hair just as it is, a little bit curly. And makeup? Just mascara. I don’t like girls who are puffed up. Sometimes lipstick though, like a red cherry lipstick.
ELLE: What are your beauty tips?
SK: Drink enough water. It’s great for your skin. And also for your hair. It’s great for your body. And another tip is when I feel happy, and I look in the mirror, I always see myself more beautiful. So if you’re happy inside, I know it’s a cliché, you look beautiful on the outside.
ELLE: Have you had a favorite moment this week?
SK: Well the moment that the dress was made on me. I mean I was standing there for one and a half hours. It was painful in the shoes, it was painful in the feet, but having the dress made on me, that was kind of an honor. It was kind of cool. So that might be my top moment. But obviously the show, was the big moment.
ELLE: Do you have any tips for new models?
SK: Be yourself. You can change yourself into what you think other people might like, and I tried that, and it doesn’t work. You need to stay with your own feelings. Don’t change yourself for someone else.

I wanna say big THANK YOU for this video, great job! That sleepy/drunken/stoned? part... awesome! I meet her on your YT channel and she totally blow my mind.

Model with some kinda acting skills (a lot face expressions)? PRICELESS! I wanna see some editorial where emotions will be used, Svea will be perfect in that type of photoshoot. And for me she's perfect whe she's so natural like in this video.

BTW that young photographer, Anouk is also cute.

Exclusive after exclusive... repetitive can be exciting

 

[HeatherAnne]

Thrilled to see her having a fantastic season. I know she has popped up at Chanel shows before, but this season really seems to be a "breakthrough" opportunity. She's looked wonderful, even with the crazy Prada outfit.
