Glasgow University Charity Fashion Show: Meet this year’s girls

GUCFS is back, and this year it's going to be bigger and better than ever. Hosted in SWG3 on the 23rd February, the first and second standard wave of tickets have already been sold out and everyone is desperate to see who will be modelling this year.

Without further ado, let's meet this year's beautiful cast of models, starting off with the ladies first.

Lucy Kirkup

Studying: Music, 3rd Year

Modelling experience: I have had no modelling experience whatsoever!

Relationship status: Single

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: I think the charity this year is amazing! Everything they do is about and for people, and they see beyond a person’s current or past circumstances, recognising their potential and worth as human beings. It’s so important that everyone should have a safe place to live and access to the support they need.

Guilty pleasure: Leaving people on read.

Alayah Okhai

Studying: Psychology, 3rd Year

Modelling experience: I was a model for GUCFS last year and I’m signed to Colours Modelling Agency.

Relationship status: Buy a ticket and ask me at the show… it’s all for a good cause!

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: I think the Simon Community Scotland is such a fantastic charity. Homelessness is such a massive problem in Scotland and especially in Glasgow. The charity help to provide shelter and advice for those who are unlucky enough to be homeless.

Guilty pleasure: Binge watching Friends on Netflix over and over again (I think I’ve watched the whole series about 5 times now).

Lucy Juif

Modelling experience: I've done a few charity fashion shows back in Manchester for Teenage Cancer Trust

Relationship status: Single

What do you think about this year's chosen charity: It is such a good cause! It's so important to me because seeing the homeless population increase is just heartbreaking and it is so nice to know that we’ll be helping. As I'm from Manchester, where homelessness is such a large problem, Simon Community Scotland really does strike a personal chord for me.

Guilty pleasure: Being a 2nd Year and still stealing traffic cones.

Caresse Brown

Elin Cave

Modelling Experience: None

Relationship status: Single

What do you think about this year's chosen charity: I think Simon Community Scotland is a great choice by the committee. Homelessness is a very real issue in Glasgow today that needs tackling. Simon Community is doing an amazing job through loads of different projects through a range of projects like prevention hypothermia and loneliness.

Guilty pleasure: Would have to be 2000s Pop Music- keep buying old CD's of like Nelly Furtado and the Sugababes.

Louise Roberts

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: think Simon Community is a fantastic charity and I’m really proud that GUCFS is supporting their cause. Simon Community work tirelessly to provide homeless people with the tools they need to get back on their feet. Hopefully the money we receive will help the charity to raise awareness of the causes and effects of homelessness and enable them to extend their reach

Guilty pleasure: I have watched The Office at least eight times through. Dwight Schrute is my spirit animal.

Hannah Makonnen

Modelling experience: I have loads, in my mirror at home, my other mirror at home… the world is my runway…

Relationship status: Single

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: Simon Community Scotland deals with such a prevalent issue within our community that it's important that we don't shy away from it. Knowing that whatever help you give is going to make a difference to at least one person, means it's worth doing.

Guilty pleasure: Watching videos of Soulja Boy explaining in explicit detail how he birthed the rap game as it stands today, and believing it.

Larisa Hamilton

Guilty pleasure: Constantly spending money on stuff I don't need!

Florence Ogonda

Studying: Sociology, 3rd Year

Modelling experience: None

Relationship status: Single

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: I'm super excited that GUCFS is supporting Simon Community Scotland this year. There is an overwhelming amount of homelessness seen in and around the West End of Glasgow which is obviously also apparent across the rest of Scotland and the UK. It’s an issue that effects so many and being able to help raise money for such a worthwhile cause is unreal.

Guilty pleasure: Post-Sanctuary chips and cheese!

Mayowa Irelewuyi

Modelling experience: This is my first time modelling, I am both very nervous but excited too!

Relationship status: In a relationship

What do you think of this year's chosen charity: I think that this is an amazing charity that we have chosen this year. Homelessness is a real issue in Glasgow and so its great that there is an organisation wanting to help. Simon Community Scotland are not only trying to get people off the streets but also combat the reasons why they are there, which is just as important.

Guilty pleasure: My guilty pleasure would probably be reality TV, especially shows like The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Jodie Brogan

Studying: Zoology, 3rd Year

Modelling experience: Did GUCFS last year which was an amazing experience, so I had to do it again!

Relationship status: Sorry not sorry, taken!

What do you think about this year's chosen charity: I think this years charity highlights a massive issue, not only in Glasgow but around the country and I’m so glad to be involved with it.

Guilty pleasure: Anything with gravy.

What do you think about this year's chosen charity: I believe it’s an amazing charity for not many people think about how fortunate they are to have a roof over their heads and means to stay warm or not having to worry about going to sleep hungry . It’s great that we are raising awareness and I’m grateful that I’ll be able to contribute in combating the causes and effects of homelessness.

Guilty pleasure: Ice cream and white wine.
