A REDDITCH woman could one day be gracing the catwalks of Paris and Milan after sashaying her way through to the final of a national modelling competition.

Hayley Evans, a 20-year-old beautician, will soon find out if she will be heading to Majorca for an assignment with a difference after reaching the finals of Club 18-30's annual modelling competition.

The competition has been running for eight years and has helped to discover 14 models who have gone on to develop careers in the fashion industry.

The first competitions were run in conjunction with Channel 4's The Big Breakfast and later on, by The Sun.

The three men and three woman selected will be whisked off to Majorca for the professional photo shoot within weeks of being chosen.

Hayley put herself forward for the competition as she has always dreamed of having a career as a model.

Hayley beat more than a thousand entrants to make it through to the final of the competition to be one of the stars of the Club 18-30 2004 summer brochure.
