Age: 24 years

Height: "I'm about 5 '8"

Vitat stats: "I'm not sure, to be honest. They change all the time, depending on how fit I am."

How I got into modelling: I'm a London girl, and there's a big fashion scene in London. At university, I studied performance arts. The contacts I made through my studies gave me a lot of opportunities at fashion boutiques, small shows, etc. And those contacts led me to Lakme, where I'm currently signed. So I've been in fashion for about five years.

Experience of fashion week so far: I'm really excited for this event. It's my first fashion week in India. When I moved here (Mumbai) to work for Lakme, everyone told me how fabulous this event was, so I've been looking forward to it. This week I'll be walking in Manish Mahotra's show, which features some beautiful vintage designs. It's going to be amazing. I can hardly wait!

Personal style mantra: At heart, I'm a London girl. I think you should wear whatever the hell you want, whatever makes you most comfortable. If I had to choose a particular style, it's funky, quirky, but still understated, sort of like Kate Moss, a fellow London girl.
