Local model Kayleigh O’Reilly has been chosen as part of the model line up at Northern Ireland’s premiere fashion event, West Coast Cooler FASHIONWEEK, for the first time in her modelling career.
Seventeen year old Kayleigh, who comes from the Creggan area of the city, attended the casting for FASHIONWEEK to become one of just fifteen models for the event, which begins on 06 March in Belfast. Having turned up at the casting, Kayleigh caught the eye of Cathy Martin, FASHIONWEEK Director who said; “I love seeing new faces at our castings, and when Kayleigh walked in I thought she was so fresh faced and exactly the kind of emerging talent we were looking for.”
Kayleigh, who was runner up in the face of Rimmel in 2008, is excited to have broken into the modelling world on such an amazing platform; “I didn’t expect any of this! I was selected from over 150 models that went to the casting and was chosen for an initial photo shoot for the FASHIONWEEK campaign. When Cathy chose me for the catwalk shows I was so overwhelmed! I can’t wait for the event; it will be a great learning experience and a real buzz to hit the catwalk every night”
The event, which was created back in 2004, is celebrating it’s fifth birthday this season, and organisers have pulled out all the stops for a jam-packed, fashion filled event. For full schedule and event details, log onto www.belfastfashionweek.com.
