Who is Björk’s daughter Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney, aka Doa?
The 22-year-old just walked the runway for Cecilie Bahnsen at Copenhagen Fashion Week – she’s also an actress in The Northman, and a musician
The 22-year-old opened the Cecilie Bahnsen 10-year anniversary show at Copenhagen Fashion Week last Friday with a white tulle dress embellished with bows and floral appliqués. She completed the airy look with white knee socks and trainers. Her brunette bob and shimmering silver make-up also accentuated the outfit’s details.
The Danish fashion brand, Cecilie Bahnsen, known for its romantic, sculptural designs, titled its show “Hana-bi” – the Japanese word for fireworks. The show started with white pieces before shifting into silver. Bahnsen explained, “I always start a new collection with white; it feels like a blank canvas.”
Here is everything you need to know about this rising star in the fashion industry.
Who is Doa?
Born in London, Doa is the daughter of singer Björk and her second husband, Matthew Barney, an American visual artist. In 2013, the couple split up, and Barney sued for custody of his daughter, saying he was not getting enough time with her. Their separation inspired Björk song “Black Lake” on the album Vulnicura.
Barney studied in Reykjavík, Iceland, and Brooklyn, New York, each autumn and spring semester. After graduating from high school, she enrolled at Pitzer College in Southern California, but it is unclear if she ever graduated.
Her mother is supportive of her acting career
