Sauna Encounter: Grace, the worried perfectionist

The outdoor Finnish sauna attached to the full service winter resort is enveloped in the last hues of twilight, casting a warm glow on the wooden benches. You lean back, brushing and slapping a fir branch against your naked body as your muscles unwind. It feels refreshing after a long day of shooting photos in the latest round of fashion shots for the upcoming fashion week reveals.

You are resting, lost in thought, when the door opens slowly. In steps Grace, an 18-year-old model with a tense, worried expression, wrapped tightly - almost too tightly - in her towel.
