And who knows where it will take you. Chloe Lockley Middleton won in 2015 and last year was an entrant on Living Channel’s Britain’s Next Top Model 2017.

Runway is a collaboration between the Courier, Harveys of Halifax and Morton Gledhill - The Fashion Team and is now in its sixth year.

The big event takes place on the night of the Spring and Summer women’s fashion launch at Harveys on March 21 when entrants will model several of the latest styles from a host of designer labels in front of an audience of 100 or more and four judges.

Experience of modelling is not necessary as all entrants will be taught the basics before the show by Morton Gledhill principal Bernadette Gledhill.

And on the night there will be professional hair and makeup stylists to make sure you look and feel at your best.

Last year’s event was won by student Ellie Smith, who followed in the footsteps of students Chloe and Isla Rowe, hairdresser Natasha Maude and shopworker Dita Krona.
