Dear readers of sport&beauty. Today we’re traveling to Sweden to meet one of the representatives of the new crop of Swedish models. Today’s guest has walked for Givenchy, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Marc Jacobs and graced the covers of Elle Sweden and Elle Italy. She’s not as renowned as Mini Anden or Helen Swedin though. As you may have probably guessed our post is going to be dedicated to the Swedish model Elsa Sylvan. Here you are Elsa Sylvan a beautiful Swedish model. I think she’s nice and lovely but a little too skinny for my likes.
Elsa Sylvan was born in Stockholm on January 23, 1987. Elsa, aka “young Adina” because of her resemblance with supermodel Adina Fohlin, was discovered in Grona Lund, an amusement park near Stockholm. Elsa`s breakthrough came in 2006 when the Swedish model signed for DNA Models and made her debut in Paris walking for Givenchy’s 2007 Spring fashion show.

In February 2007 Elsa walked in New York for Doo Ri, Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, and Zac Posen’s Fall collections and in March she opened Comme des Garçons’ Fall fashion show. In July, Elsa Sylvan opened Nina Ricci’s resort collection fashion show in New York and then she traveled to Paris to walk for Akris, Lanvin, Nina Ricci, and Vivienne Westwood’s 2008 Spring fashion shows. The same year, and in addition to her catwalk work, Elsa Sylvan graced the covers of the French “Revue des modes”, Elle Sweden and Elle Italy and appeared in editorials for Elle Italy, Numéro Japan and in the Fall fashion issue of the New York magazine photographed by Andreas Sjödin. Finally the Swedish model signed for Viva Paris and starred in Sportmax’s Fall ad campaing alongside Namibian model Behati Prinsloo. No doubt 2007 was what we could call a busy year for Elsa.
In January 2008 our friend Elsa walked in Paris for Chanel, Christian Lacroix, Givenchy, and Valentino’s haute couture fashion shows, in Februar she opened Nanette Lepore, Yigal Azrouel, and Zac Posen’s Fall fashion shows in New York, in June Elsa walked for Balenciaga’s resort collection show also in New York and in July she trudged the catwalk for Anne Valérie Hash, Christian Lacroix, Chanel , and Valentino’s haute couture fashion shows in Paris. I supposed Elsa was so exhausted that she missed New York and Milan Fashion Weeks to reappear in Paris walking for Balenciaga, Chloé, Chanel, Christian Lacroix, Louis Vuitton, and Valentino’s fashion shows.
Don’t you believe that fashion magazines forgot about Elsa. In 2008 Elsa Sylvan was in high demand and appeared in several editorials for Harper’s Bazaar UK (March), and Numéro (April and May), W (June photographed by Craig McDean), and Elle Germany (September). Elsa was also photographed by Fabien Baron for French Connection and Steven Meisel for Calvin Klein Jeans along with fellow models Toni Garrn and Ali Stephens. The Swedish model also graced the covers of Muse and Velvet and, finally, she appeared in Marie Claire Italy (November) and Elle Italy (December).
Let’s continue with our review of Elsa’s modeling career. In January 2009, tireless Elsa Sylvan opened Christian Lacroix’s haute couture show in Paris walking also for Armani Privé, Chanel, and Valentino’s haute couture shows. In March, and also in Paris, Elsa closed Balenciaga and Yohji Yamamoto’s Fall fashion shows. More shows to come. In July Elsa walks in Paris for Armani Privé, Christian Lacroix, and Elie Saab’s haute couture fashion shows and, finally, Elsa closed her catwalk season in September opening Proenza Schouler, Erdem, Roberto Cavalli, and Akris’ Spring fashion shows in New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Still in 2009, Elsa Sylvan became a face of Balenciaga and appeared in Marie Claire Italy (April cover photographed by Max Cardelli), Dazed&Confused (April photographed by Bryan McMahon), Cover (June cover photographed by Hasse Nielsen), Vogue France (August photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin), Elle (September photographed by Lina Schevnias), and Vogue Brazil (December photographed by Stephane Gallois). As the icing on the cake, Elsa was also photographed for D&G by the famous Peruvian fashion photographer Mario Testino.
Elsa Sylvan started 2010 walking in January for Armani Privé, Chanel, Valentino, and Anne Valérie Hash’s haute couture Spring fashion shows. She’s also walked for Celine’s Spring collection fashion show and appeared in W magazine photographed by Craig McDean. Out of curiosity we will say that hadn’t she been a model, Elsa would have liked to go into International Relations for Education at a global level and other political issues. As we can see Elsa is a woman with concerns. To conclude the post I’ll leave a slideshow with some pictures of Elsa Sylvan and some videos so you can see this beautiful Swedish model live. Best regards.
