16 year old model, Philippa Steele of Kulukulu, Sigatoka will leave for New York on the 7th of next month.

Steele was hand picked by an agent from New York and she later signed a contract with the Trump Model Management Company last year.

The Director of Scouting, Duane Gazi-White, says Steele’s visa will last for three months that will be effective from the 7th of July right through to the New York Fashion Week in September.

The New York Fashion Week is one of the biggest fashion shows in the world.

White also said Steele’s working visa will be prepared after her three months stay in New York.
