Filippa was born on December 3, 1985 in Paris and raised in

Filippa captured the attention of industry insiders with her
striking beauty. It was not long after being introduced to
modeling that 16-year-old NEXT newcomer secured her first
major advertising campaign with Ralph Lauren; she is the new
face of Romance, Ralph Lauren’s fragrance, photographed by

leading lensmen including Paolo Roversi, Mario Testino,
Arthur Elgort, Inez van Lamsweerde, Terry Richardson and

likes painting and hanging out with friends, her model
inspiration is Christy Turlington, being the face of Ralph
Lauren is a dream come true, and she travels to fashion

Filippa is a French and Swedish national. Her father Michaël
Palmstierna Hamilton (born in 1955 to Swedish parents count
and World War II Waffen-SS volunteer Ulph Hamilton and
