Could Chloe be next top model?

Chloe, 21, a psychology student at Huddersfield University auditioned for the show in June last year and found herself one of a dozen finalists from between 2,000-3,000 hopefuls.

“I got a call from the producers asking me to go to Manchester where I met three of the team,” said Chloe, who is originally from Southowram but now lives in Huddersfield.

“I had to talk about my life and why I thought I should be on the show. I did a cat walk and filmed some video for the judges.

“They called me in late July to say I had been shortlisted and I was told I was through in September when I was taken to London with the other girls for filming.”

Chloe said the show was very intense at times but the experience she had gained through Runway had helped.

Britain’s Next Top Model premieres on Thursday, March 16 on Lifetime Channel (9pm), the night after Runway 2017.

Over several weeks it will challenge the aspiring models with a number of tests and assignments before the field is narrowed through a series of eliminations and a winner is found.

The panel includes Abbey Clancy, who was a runner-up back in 2006 and Paul Sculfor as head judges.

They are joined by fashion director and style guru Hilary Alexander OBE and celebrity photographer Nicky Johnston.

Chloe entered Runway back in 2015 as a 19-year-old who had just left school and was starting university life.

“It was a really good experience for me, especially the modelling course which was part of the prize that I won,” she said.

“If anyone is unsure whether to enter Runway or not, I say give it a shot, you should do it and it’s fun. Who would say no to a possible career as a model.” .

Chloe went to several castings after winning Runway and has taken part in lots of fashion shows, but she says since filming the TV show she has concentrated on her studies.

However once it has screened she intends picking up modelling again.

So how did Chloe get on?

“I couldn’t possibly tell you,” she says. “You’re going to have to watch to find out.”
