A feat considering the model landscape: a game of musical chairs buoyed by an industry penchant for newer-and-nower girls. But from her Prada runway debut way back &#8211; she was just a fresh faced Swede in 2008 &#8211; and her first shoot with Steven Meisel to her recent <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/work\/gucci-gucci-pre-fall-2015-campaign\">Gucci campaign<\/a> shot by Glen Luchford, Julia\u2019s titian tinge and rare angles regularly captivate the top photographers. Equally alluring back when Thom Jackson captured Hafstrom in the rolling landscape of <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/mdx\/marfa-texas\">Marfa for Models.com<\/a>, Hafstrom is this time around lensed by Van Sarki. The team keeps things bright and fresh working in plenty of pastel for this airy story.

Such an amazing introduction into the fashion world. I remember being nervous before the shoot, but when we started shooting I was so focused that the nerves went away. He knows what he wants and to be a part of his work is very rewarding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s the most spectacular show you&#8217;ve walked and what sticks in your mind about it?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Louis Vuitton FW14 show. I was exclusive for it so it was super cool seeing the collection get made. It was my first show in a few years so I remember it well. It took me a minute to get the runway down cause it was a bit complicated, but it made it more fun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Any stories from the Gucci pre-fall campaign shoot with Glen Luchford?\u00a0Were you ecstatic to land it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was really happy to get that job! When my booker first told me I thought she gave me the wrong schedule, but then my name was on the ticket to London so I packed my bag straight away.
