\nMatilda:<\/strong> I was scouted by my agency Select Models on a school trip with my art class when I was 17.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> Yes I\u2019m currently in the middle of an art foundation course at City and Guilds, which I love. I\u2019m studying sculpture, which has been really interesting, and also really physically testing \u2013 I sometimes find myself hammering wood in a workshop at 9am having been to a fashion event the night before. It\u2019s like I have an alter ego. It\u2019s great.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> At the moment, Karla Black and Eva Hesse.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> It would probably be Irving Penn and David Hockney.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> SO MANY model mishaps \u2013 getting stuck in a giant plastic bubble outfit is pretty up there.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> It has always been and will always be Burberry. They represent a lot for me and have given me the most amazing opportunities.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> If I wasn\u2019t a model, I might take up wild swimming and write a book about it.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> I\u2019ve recently become a certified diver (I\u2019m pretty proud of that one). I\u2019m a sports freak. I run, high jump, horse ride, play hockey, ski, water ski and my next big mission is to crack surfing (so far not so good).<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> Usually when I\u2019m not modeling I\u2019ll be in my art college. But my ideal day off would definitely be spent riding my horse on the hills at home in the Lake District.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> Yes, he\u2019s called Rushy, he\u2019s a babe. I miss him!<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> Big secret… I once crashed a wedding with my friend. Not a good move. I\u2019m also ridiculously superstitious.<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> Best Cancer traits (I hope) that I have are creativity and faithfulness. Worst, overemotional (worryingly true).<\/p>\n
\nM:<\/strong> The soundtrack to my life is forever changing, but maybe \u201cLittle Bitty Pretty One\u201d by Thurston Harris and the Sharps. It\u2019s a corker.<\/p>\n
