Typically, when we hear the phrase “model side project,” our minds instantly leap to reality TV show hosting gigs, guest vocals with the emo band du jour, and movies costarring Billy Baldwin. Thankfully, Erin Wasson is anything but typical. Though born and bred in Texas, this L.A.-based Lone Star has come to embody a certain rough-around-the-edges West Coast cool punctuated by deconstructed denim cut-offs, ski caps, and loose basic tees and tanks.

This enviably effortless look has famously led to a gig styling the past two runway collections for Alexander Wang, her own body armor-inspired LowLuv jewelry line, and a new multi-season clothing design deal with RVCA (the first collection, spring ‘09, will debut in stores come January). Somehow the dirty-blonde beauty finds time to squeeze in high-profile modeling assignments for the likes of Maybelline and every fashion mag under the sun.

This coming Fashion Week, Wasson will once again be joining Wang backstage, but not as a stylist; instead she’ll be accenting his designs with pieces from LowLuv’s latest collection. Naturally, we pressed her for more details…

What’s on your wish list? “A pair of brown python pants from Alexander Wang’s collection, and a floral-print vest and a black sort of mohair leather jacket from Ann Demeulemeester. There are so many pieces from her collection that I’m so into. The acheter cialis moccasin Balmain boots are the shoes that I definitely want to rock. And basics from Number (N)ine. I never go for trendy; every season I try to go with basics that I know I can incorporate into my collection and that I can still wear after the season.”

How would you sum up your personal style? “Frumpy sexiness. If I’m buying a T-shirt, I buy it oversized. I like oversized jeans, I like oversized denim shorts, I like oversized jackets. I like having an undone, loose feel to everything. You know, there’s so much of a tomboy in me where I still enjoy wearing guy’s clothes. More often than not I’ll go to a store and I’ll be in the men’s section buying men’s pants, or a men’s vest, or a men’s button-down shirt or something. It’s hard for me in women’s departments because the stuff is a little bit too feminine, or a little bit too frilly, or a little bit too girly.”

Your style feels very pared-down and edgy considering that you come from Dallas [Wasson grew up in Irving, a Dallas suburb], where everything tends to be over the top. Did that designer decadence influence you at all? “I was more inspired by all the street kids in Deep Ellum back in the day. I shopped at all the thrift stores up and down Elm Street that used to be there. I was more into wearing Doc Martens than shopping at fancy designer boutiques. Now, every time I go to Dallas there’s a place I go to called Dolly Python that my friend Gretchen owns. Gratitude off of Oak Cliff is also really amazing.”
