Williams, who was born in Australia and raised in Bali, has amassed more than one million followers thanks to her fashion savvy posts and lust-worthy life, which is why the brand has enlisted her as the face of its new New Era collection — a streetwear-inspired collection with a nod to the 90s.

“I feel so lucky that they chose me, as the collection fits in pretty well with my personal style,” says 18-year-old Williams who has been branded the Gigi Hadid of Bali.

“The collection reminded me of a market in Bali where I find the best streetwear.”

Despite making a name for herself on social media, the IMG model said she doesn’t have much time for the medium which made her famous.

She says the Bonds collection fits in well with her personal style.

“I don’t use social media a lot,” she said. “I just think there is a limit to what should be put on it.

“Some things can be empowering. If it is natural and not provocative then it can also be a beautiful way to show your confidence, but you have to be careful.

“Right now I am really focusing on upgrading my portfolio. I want to shoot with a bunch of photographers I love.”
