While being most famous for her work in front of the camera, former supermodel Helena Christensen is becoming increasingly known for her photography. This spring she teams up with H&M for a capsule collection featuring her photos.

In a studio in Copenhagen a world-famous model is at work — but this time behind the camera, not in front of it. Helena Christensen is one of the original supermodels from the 1990s, seen on the covers of countless magazines and a fashion favourite on the catwalks; but she is also a renowned fashion and art photographer. This spring she teams up with H&M for a small and beautiful capsule collection.

The Helena Christensen x H&M collection has an effortless yet edgy vibe. Designed by an H&M in-house team, the silhouettes include curved hems on the loose t-shirts, a cropped length on the sweatshirt and an oversized look for the hoodies. The colour palette of white, black and grey marl provides a clean background for Christensen’s photographs.

“We’re happy to be collaborating with Helena Christensen. From her work behind and in front of the camera to magazines or fragrances, plus her charitable work, she’s a true icon. And her beautiful photographs of flowers for this collaboration look amazing on the ’90s streetwear-inspired designs – it’s laidback with an edge,” says Maria Östblom, Head of Womenswear Design at H&M.
The campaign features four strong personalities: Danish actress and model Klara Kristin, Swedish rising model star Oumie Jammeh, American artist and model Janiece Dilone and Helena Christensen’s niece Sarah-Sofie Sonne.
