The New California Cool 2026

Description

Captured by photographer Nagi Sakai for Everlane's project The New California Cool, this editorial portrait features model Sara Grace Wallerstedt lounging against a green textured sofa. She is styled in a blue and pink striped short-sleeve polo layered over a light blue collared shirt, paired with a dark denim mini skirt. Her hair falls loose around her shoulders, and her expression is direct and candid. Stacks of books rest on a wooden shelf above and on the brown leather cushions beside her, enhancing the lived-in interior setting. The composition uses a warm, tactile color grading with soft natural lighting.
