31 Models Who Are Actively Increasing LGBTQ+ Representation in Fashion

Erika Linder is a sought-after model for major shows, but perhaps you'll recognize her from Katy Perry's "Unconditionally" music video. The Swedish model and actress recently opened up to W Magazine about her journey, touching on when she was discovered. "I was 14 and at an outside concert in Stockholm with my best friend. This woman came up to me and said, 'Do you want to be a model?' And I was like, 'Is she talking to me?' I didn't believe it. I pictured models as being way more girly. I said no and they were on me for a few years, but I didn't do it until it was 21."
