Young models and their pets strutted their stuff on the catwalk at The Ultimate Pet Show. Harry's mum told us...
"Harry was just so excited to get on the catwalk every show. He was absolutely exhilarated by the whole weekend."
Three boys, Harry, Luke and Joshua, had great fun modelling for a weekend when the NEC in Birmingham was taken over by The Ultimate Pet Show. The boys were selected along with seven other Models Direct models (and their pets!) to take part in several fashion shows over the three days.
The Ultimate Pet Show came to Models Direct looking for ten happy and confident models of different ages to walk their pets down the catwalk. Since Models Direct represents such a wide variety of models, we had no problems meeting the specification.
Harry, Luke and Joshua, along with the others, were chosen to model outdoor clothing and a variety of animal accessories for their pets. They had to take part in nine catwalk shows over the weekend but they treated each show as if it was their first with excitement and enthusiasm.
"Harry was just so excited to get on to the catwalk every show," says his mum. "He was absolutely exhilarated by the whole weekend." And these views were shared by all the models who took part.
It was the first assignment for brothers Luke and Joshua (and their dogs Molly and Sally) and they had great fun. "Our first assignment was definitely an excellent experience," they say. "We made new friends and hope to see them again on another assignment soon."
Officials at The Ultimate Pet Show were also impressed with the fashion shows and were amazed by how professional all the models were. They told us that they will not hesitate to take all of the models to London if the show has another event later in the year.

"I enjoyed dressing up as patient and pretending to be unwell. It has built my confidence and I am eager to do it again. The assignment involved me pretending to be an unwell patient in a hospital ward with a pretend mum. The photographer was a very nice lady who told me how to sit and what faces to pull. I really enjoyed this experience and would recommend Models Direct to anyone interested in getting into this sort of work. I had a lot of people tell me how pretty I was and that I should join a modelling agency so I asked my mum to look into it and here I am!"
