Freja Beha Erichsen, Barely Trying

Freja Beha Erichsen always looked like she’d walked onto the set from somewhere more interesting and agreed to stay for exactly as long as she felt like it. The Danish androgyny, the slightly unfocused gaze, the tattoos that refused to be fashion-forward about themselves—it all added up to a face that fashion kept returning to precisely because it didn’t seem to want anything from fashion. In the La Geisha editorial, that quality reads as quiet authority rather than detachment. She wears the clothes like borrowed objects she hasn’t decided whether to return.
