Hayley Morley may be known for her row with a designer during London Fashion Week, but despite this fact she is now the one of the most in demand models across the UK.
She is also the new representative of the Evans fashion chain after being dismissed in years past as too heavy to walk the catwalk. In fact, after Morley signed on to model for Mark Fast, and in the past two designers from the team dropped out the night before the show.
At size 14, Morley is far more full-figured than a typical model that fits a size six. At first her appearance on the runway shocked fashion journalists and spectators alike, but at age 21 Morley now believes that the press coverage has had an overall affect on the fashion industry.
She was quoted in the past as saying that the effect of her presence in the show has been echoed across the world. In the coming week she will be modelling for French Marie Claire, which Morley feels shows that the models are now being booked for more jobs despite being curvy.
Although debate has continued to spread regarding whether Fast should have hired her for the show, Morley said that she focuses on enjoying her work and that she had a lot of fun working with Fast and his team. She also stated that she was shocked to find herself front page news although she makes it a point to ignore any negative press because she does not view herself as large, fat, or plus sized.
