Life

After Linder's parents separated, she grew up alternately in Stockholm and Roslagen . At the age of 14, she was asked by a model agent at a concert if she would like to work as a model. However, she declined the request because she couldn't imagine working as a model. She started studying law and languages ​​at a university. At the age of 21 she finally worked as a model for the first time and she portrayed the young Leonardo DiCaprio for the magazine Candy . At first she worked exclusively as a male model, according to her own statements, so as not to have to wear uncomfortable clothes and make-up. She was one of the first female models to work in the male sector. After her first order, Linder was booked for the men's cosmetics line from Tom Ford and Louis Vuitton , among others . Later she began to take on more jobs as a female model.

Linder moved to Los Angeles to continue her career. In April 2019, she was shown on the cover of Vogue Germany together with her partner, model Heather Kemesky . The two were the first lesbian couple shown there.

Linder starred in the music video for Katy Perry's song Unconditionally and in the video for Empire by the Icelandic band Of Monsters and Men . In 2016 she made her film acting debut in the erotic drama Below Her Mouth .
