Erin’s boyish ambitions

Erin Wasson used to look like a boy.

The US model – who has a collection with surf and skate brand RVCA – rarely wears girly clothing as she prefers to a more grungy look.

She explained: “There’s a rock ‘n’ roll vibe to everything I wear. I’m never without three rings from my own jewellery line, LowLuv. I’m also quite tomboyish. I grew up looking like a boy – I had short hair and I was so ungirly.”

Erin, 27, only became a model after her father entered her into a contest when she was 17.

Despite her reluctance to dress in an overly feminine manner, Erin is fascinated by fashion and is already coveting pieces from the new season’s collections.

She explained: “Alexander Wang did these beautiful crocodile-embossed shoulder bags and huge hats. I also want a Preen dress, vest tops from Alexander Wang, a blazer from Yohi Yamamoto, a dress from Mark Fast and Meadham Kirchhoff’s distressed jeans – plus the velvet pants, blazer and daisy dress from my line and Phi’s creeper boots.”
