Taylor to parade fashion by Perry

August 29th, 2008

Jennifer Hawkins and Megan Gale watch out.
There’s a new model on the catwalk and she’s from Bolwarra.
The 14-year-old schoolgirl, Taylor Davies, has an opportunity most girls would kill for.
Taylor has been picked by fashion designer Alex Perry to model in his runway show tonight at Monte Pio.
Liza’s of Lorn Designer Boutique owner and event organiser Rebecca Daines says Taylor was chosen along with five other girls from Newcastle from a group of 15 and is the only Maitland girl in the show.
Taylor has not modelled before but was excited and nervous about her debut.
“I’ve been practicing walking up and down the hallway,” the Year 8 student said.
The fashion-conscious teenager looks forward to meeting Perry, who is one of her idols.
“I can’t wait to meet him. I’ve seen him on TV.”
Taylor said she had not considered a career in modelling but it was now something she might pursue.
“It will be a lot of fun,” she said.
Rebecca said Taylor would be trained one-on-one by Perry.
“He will chose outfits that best suit Taylor.”
Taylor and five models from Paradox Model Management in Newcastle will parade with seven models from Chic Management in Sydney to show clothes from Perry’s Safari Princess Spring Summer ‘08/’09 Collection.
The runway show will raise funds for the McGrath Foundation.
