Fresh face alert!! I love hearing about new
Australian talents getting out there into the worldwide fashion scene and today
the news is all about 17-year old Queenslander Grace Simmons.
The willowy 5ft11in teenager breezed across
the runway at Dior Haute Couture like she’d done it a thousand times before (I
didn’t actually see the show of
course, I’m not cool enough for that yet! But imagine so), in front of
Hollywood icons like Emma Watson, Jennifer Lawrence, Charlize Theron and Marion
Cotillard. Grace was first discovered
through the Girlfriend magazine Model Search for 2012, giving her a start in
the modeling career. She told the Daily Mail Australia: “Walking in Dior Haute
Couture show was an absolute dream come true. I’d come to Paris with the
intention of merely experiencing Haute Couture Week and learning all I could,
so to be cast in one of the biggest and most prestigious shows of the week is
something I’ll never forget”. Simmons has signed onto Next Model Management in
New York, Paris, London, and Milan, Bravo Models in Japan and Chic Model
Management here in Australia.
Like all of us she too had issues with the
way she looked, admitting in the article that she used to hate her red hair the
most but admits to loving it now. Let’s hope we see so much more of Grace in
the upcoming fashion weeks and maybe even the face of a campaign!
Congrats Grace!
