Shot by photographer Greta Ilieva, the Canadian-born model strikes a pose with a pouty pop of red-stained lips, disheveled wavy tresses and precarious platforms. The scene ranges from fence-balancing photos to lounging in a pile of sod in black sheer dresses, fall coats, and polka-dotted cover ups.
