Model teen's Topshop gig

A New Malden teen will be modelling Topshop's winter collection from this month.

The high street fashion store's campaign is Chloe Hayward's first major contract since she joined Select Model Management two years ago in 2004.

The 18-year-old who attended Tiffin Girls' School, was discovered after being spotted by a Select Model Management's Sarah Leon in the shoe section of the Kingston branch of Topshop.

Chloe, who achieved three A-grades in her A-levels, has decided to take a gap year so she can pursue modelling full-time before going to study English and drama at Birmingham University.

She is currently living with her mum Susie, dad Stephen and younger sister Helen.

"It's amazing to think that two years ago I was a normal schoolgirl shopping in Topshop and now I'm doing an advertising campaign for them," she said.
