One of the things that's fun about our models is that we'll often have them sport clothes that they'd actually wear in reality, which makes it one big fun game of dress up! Cindy's style made her a natural fit for Alex Wang's breezy deconstructed silk pieces. I mean, check out her DIY Dries-y bleached jacket. It's perfection! Get to know a little more about the California girl here.

What is something about you that no one would expect? I studied architecture in school.



If you could steal one thing from today’s shoot what would it be? Can I steal the store in its entirety? Does that count as one thing? If not, I fell pretty hard for those little shorts that go along with the Suno bathing suits.
