Veronika Cvak from Roxburgh Park in Melbourne (see video clip) won Australia’s first ever search for a plus size model competition. The twenty year old beat over 2800 contestants, winning a $30,000 contract, to become the new face of City Chic, an Australian plus size high street retailer.
“I can’t believe I have won the competition, it has been such a thrill just to be involved, I never thought that I would actually win a modelling contract,” said Veronika.
The runners up, Blaise McCann from NSW, and Courtney Maxwell from QLD, both won a professional modelling portfolio and a City Chic wardrobe valued at $1000.
Gary Dakin, Vice President of Ford Models New York (NY), crowned the City Chic beauty at a star studded event held in Sydney in mid August.
“Australian girls are absolutely stunning and City Chic’s modelling competition has been such a huge success, the girls really reflect the beauty and the diversity of the country,” he said
City Chic teamed up with Ford Models NY and BGM Models Australia to launch the nationwide competition, searching the country to find Australia’s potential plus size model superstar.
“Sassy, sexy and chic – Veronika embodies all the qualities of the City Chic brand and we’re delighted to have her on board as the face of the label,” said Phil Ryan, CEO of City Chic.
“With the average Australian woman sized 14-16, we believe it’s important to show women they can look chic and fashionable as well as finding a stunning face for the brand.”
In addition to winning a two year face of City Chic contract, valued at $30,000, Veronika will receive an exclusive photo shoot with City Chic and Cosmopolitan magazine, a feature in Cosmopolitan, a $1,000 wardrobe and an opportunity to be signed up by a leading Australian modelling agency,
