𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐚 𝐀𝐥𝐦𝐪𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐭: Making Her Mark, One Step at a Time
Thea Almqvist isn’t just one of the most in-demand faces of 2025 — she’s the embodiment of a new era in fashion: bold, cerebral, international, and effortlessly cool. With roots in both Sweden and the UK, and a personal style that fuses classic London edge with Nordic elegance, Almqvist has emerged as the model to watch across runways, magazine covers, and major campaigns this year.
From Ladbroke Grove to the World
Born and raised in London’s Ladbroke Grove, Thea Almqvist grew up surrounded by creativity and culture. Her Swedish heritage adds a quiet sophistication to her look, while her studies in costume design show through in her deep understanding of fashion’s form, history, and symbolism. She’s not just wearing the clothes — she’s interpreting them.
Spotted early on by casting director Ashley Brokaw, renowned for launching the careers of icons, Thea first stepped onto the global stage during Louis Vuitton’s Cruise 2025 show in Barcelona. And from that moment, the industry never stopped watching.
Fashion Week’s Breakout Star
Autumn/Winter 2025–2026 will be remembered as the season Thea Almqvist conquered the catwalk. She didn’t just appear — she dominated the most prestigious shows across London, Milan, and Paris.
She walked for:
- Burberry in London
- Fendi, Missoni, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana in Milan
- Balmain, Chanel, Hermès, Valentino, Coperni, The Row, Rabanne, Victoria Beckham, Chloé, and Louis Vuitton in Paris
Each appearance cemented her reputation not only as a top model but as a muse — the kind who elevates a collection simply by wearing it.
A Campaign Favorite and Editorial Powerhouse
In 2025, Almqvist’s editorial and advertising presence became impossible to ignore. Her face graced the covers of Harper’s Bazaar Italia (#20), Pop Magazine (#52 S/S 2025), and D Repubblica — working with acclaimed photographers like Ola Rindal, Liv Liberg, Bruno Staub, Suffo Moncloa, and Alasdair McLellan.
Her campaigns have been equally headline-worthy. She was chosen as a lead face of Louis Vuitton Perfumes 2025, starring in the campaign for the new fragrance Eye — a name that seems more than fitting for a model so clearly in the industry’s spotlight. Her collaborators included rising stars Charlotte Boggia and Mahi Kabra, establishing a new trinity of future icons.
A Face for the Future
While many models rise quickly and fade just as fast, Thea Almqvist’s ascent feels different — rooted, intentional, and creative. She’s building a career not only on visibility but on substance: editorial work that matters, shows that define trends, and collaborations with designers and photographers who are reshaping the fashion world.
Whether she’s fronting the Louis Vuitton Summer 2025 editorial (shot by Louise & Maria Thornfeldt) or bringing poetic grace to the Gucci Cruise 2026 show in Florence, Almqvist doesn’t just appear in a moment — she defines it.
A Muse in Motion
What sets Thea Almqvist apart isn’t just her striking silhouette or refined beauty. It’s her story. A model with an academic background in costume design, a bicultural lens, and a powerful sense of self. She’s the girl to watch, not only because of where she’s been — but because of where she’s going.
2025 belongs to Thea Almqvist.
And if the industry has its way, the future will too.
