Make Way for Teddy Quinlivan, Model Diva Extraordinaire
Fresh off Alessandro Michele’s Gucci runway, the 21-year-old talks dating apps, Balenciaga Fall 2007, and that spectacular new Prada show.
Model Teddy Quinlivan, 21, was impossible to miss at fashion week this season. Not only was she literally leaping in front of street style photographers, but she also walked in major shows around the globe including Gucci, Marc Jacobs, and J.W. Anderson. She made her modeling debut in Louis Vuitton’s Spring 2015 show, and was bound to last thanks to her huge personality. On Instagram, she posts conversations she has on dating apps about her style, so we asked her to elaborate on her love of body harnesses and hatred of Uggs.
