About Me

Hello! My name is Abbey Higgins. I am studying Fashion Design at Chester University and I would love the opportunity to experience modelling as well as designing. I am 18 years old, I am 5 feet 8 inches in height and I usually wear a size 8 or 10 dress size. I would describe myself as clean living and natural. Staying fit is a big part of my life; I am always on the go. I like to go out for long walks, bake, listen to music and design and sew my own garments. I include at least 3 sessions a week at the gym using weight and resistance training to stay in shape. If I were to use three words to describe myself; I would use quirky, energetic and loyal. I always walk into a job with confidence and I enjoy learning new skills and techniques.

My other skills include: organisational skills, punctual skills and communicational skills. I also have skills in fitness, these are: agility, stamina, endurance and strength.

Interests & Hobbies

I love going out for a walk, whether it is with a friend or just me and my music. Another hobby of mine is baking, creating my own recipe is something I often do. Exercising is a very big hobby of mine, I either train with weights, go out for a jog or I will join a yoga class. A more relaxed hobby of mine would be designing my own collections and creating them on a sewing machine. During times of stress, I like to colour in or watch a film/TV show. Walking and playing with my dog is my favourite hobby (he is a chocolate Labrador called Sam).
