A TEENAGER from Stockbridge has had success at a national model competition.

Michaela Wyatt, 15, was placed as first princess at the Miss Teen Top Model UK grand finals at the the Holiday Inn in Cheshire on June 26.

This was Michaela's first competition and she finished in second place overall.

The girls were judged on their potential, looks, posture, elegance, stage presence, confidence-personality and overall appearance on the catwalk.

The judges were also looking at intelligence, charm, charisma and a good personality which are all needed for working as a model.

Michaelea, a pupil at The Romsey School, said it was a fun experience and she made some friends for life with other contestants.

Michaela's grandmother, Lynne Wyatt, previously said: “Michaela wants to be a model and entering the national and international pageants is one way of being seen and noticed in that industry.”

She was sponsored by Mckenzie's in the City restaurant.
