A Paragon OF BEAUTY
 

Welcome to L’Officiel, Eunice! How were you discovered? Did someone recommend you to get into modelling? 

I was first scouted at age 15. It was so funny I came from a small town in Edinburgh, Scotland. So, basically I had no idea that modelling was even a real job. I loved sports more than girly things and never wore makeup or anything. I still remember when the first time I was scouted, I was wearing my favourite inside-out double stitched Air Force 1, baggy jeans, army puffer jacket and my natural Afro. I was so shocked I didn’t take it seriously at all. It wasn’t until I think the fifth time I decided to give it a try. It was beyond anything I could have ever imagined. I went from being a small home town girl next door to walking on some of the biggest catwalks in the world. I feel I was really blessed, as I also got the opportunity to work with legends like Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood.

What’s the biggest barrier you’ve broken as a model? 

I think being the first black model to achieve supermodel status in my country of Scotland. It is so strange getting used to the title. But as I have got older, I understand when people give you that title, it means a lot. We should cherish and respect it, and not shy away out of modesty.

What does it take to be a successful model today?
