WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT WORKING WITH SQUARE ONE ON THE FALL/WINTER CAMPAIGN? 

SL: Loved working with a pro like Hilary. Sean and I are old friends, so it was just like being with extended family! Plus working with the Square One team was awesome.

WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT?

SL: Probably sushi! Or music… both things I tend to obsess over, coming from the music space and loving great food. 

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR FASHION STYLE IN THREE WORDS OR LESS? 

SL: Simple, casual, and cool! (I hope!) 

INSTAGRAM OR SNAPCHAT? 

SL: Both, but heavy on Instagram for years. 

WHAT’S THE LAST THING YOU DO BEFORE GOING TO BED? 

SL: Check my phone, or watch a mindless TV show, like Botched! 

WHAT’S THE BEST ADVICE YOU WERE EVER GIVEN? 

SL: Hard work pays off! So cliché, but sooooo true! 

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FASHION PHOTOGRAPH? 

SL: Love pop culture references like Jurgen Teller, Terry Richardson. Steven Klein and Mario Sorrentti for technique.

BLACK & WHITE, OR COLOUR? 

SL: Colour. 

FILM OR DIGITAL? 

SL: Digital for sure—I wouldn’t know how to work a film camera! 
 

LIVING OR DEAD, WHO WOULD YOU LOVE TO PHOTOGRAPH? 

SL: John Lennon!
