Enfield girl named top disabled model
A young woman born with no left forearm is on the brink of a major modelling career after winning a TV search for a top disabled model.
Kelly Knox, 23, of Enfield, beat hundreds of contestants to be crowned Britain's Missing Top Model.
A BBC Three series followed the progress of the eight finalists. Miss Knox will now appear in a fourpage spread in Marie Claire after a photoshoot with portrait photographer Rankin, who numbers Kate Moss, Kylie Minogue and Tony Blair among his subjects.
The final episode next Tuesday will show her having a casting with model agency Take 2 and reveal whether they take her on.
The 5ft 8ins credit controller, said: "I was never bullied but disability is complex and some people have a hard time so seeing this could be an inspiration for them. That's why I've done it."
