For years, Pernille Teisbaek has been a fixture on the fashion scene, frequently snapped by street style photographers for her approach to style that blends her mastery of Scandinavian minimalism with her eye for bold accessories. She got her start as a model and fashion editor before working as an influencer, where she was able to carve out her personal style. "During that time, the era of influencers had started, and I was immediately drawn to this new opportunity to express myself—create my own universe," Teisbaek explains. "It obviously developed into a career, and I am now working for and consulting with various amazing brands and focusing on my own projects."

Most recently, Teisbaek was announced as a creative consultant of Gia Borghini—an Italian footwear brand she has been collaborating with on her namesake collection for the last two and a half years that has risen to cult status among the fashion set. "I had so many ideas for styles that didn't work within my own collections and have such a creative synergy with Barbara [Borghini] and the team, so it felt so natural to transition to a broader partnership."

Here, she gives us a look at her wardrobe via five looks that showcase the shoes from her latest Gia x Pernille Teisbaek collection alongside other standout pieces. Her take on transitional dressing includes new drops from Jacquemus, while her look for a night out includes The Frankie Shop's viral shorts set paired with pointy heels—plus plenty more inspiration for how to tap into her perpetually cool style.
