So great to see her. Burberry this year? Maybe?

Clara McSweeney is 16, has an awesome accent and is one of more buzzy models to come out of Ireland in recent years. She just finished up her second season walking in London Fashion Week shows, but she left early this year, after getting sick. Poor Clara. We hope our 'Meet The Model' profile made you feel better!

Jerico Mandybur: Where are you from and where do you live now?
Clara: I was born in California and I live in Ireland.

Who are five women that inspire you?
My mum, Kate Moss and my sister!

What's the best piece of advice you ever received?
"Nothing worth having comes easy." It's true!

What song do you really wish you'd written and why?
Bruce Springsteen's 'I'm On Fire.' He's my favourite and this song has a really nice story to it.

What's your earliest childhood memory?
I was about five and remember riding down on my scooter to get pizza in San Francisco.

Secret skills?
I can make my eyebrows dance.

What rules would you instil if you were Supreme Leader of Earth for one day?
Legalise gay marriage everywhere around the world!

Tell us a joke?
Three tomatoes are walkin' down the street, Papa Tomato, Mama Tomato and Baby Tomato.
Baby Tomato starts lagging behind, and Papa Tomato gets really angry.
He goes back and squishes Baby Tomato and says, "Ketchup!"

What's the best YouTube video you've ever seen? Link please!
Lily's Disneyland.

Can you send us a selfie?

Great to get an update on her! I'm still holding such a torch that she'll be big, she's young so she's got plenty of time to establish herself.

Show Package - London S/S 2015: Elite

She's from the same part of Ireland as I am. She's signed with Andrea Roche model agency and has walked for Brown Thomas wearing Moschino I think.

 

[Elite13]

She didn't walk in any shows, no?

 

[Mea Culpa]

That's too bad!!!

 

[Elite13]

I don't think she's going to do much modelling abroad until after secondary school, according to her instagram she's in her last year and she's been modelling in Ireland in between.

Here's her portfolio from her Irish mother agency: http://armodelagency.com/2014/09/28/clara/

Just saw this girl on Irish TV today.... So pretty. Hopefully we'll see more of here if she is to finish school this Summer.

She's in NYC.

Possibly looking for a NY agent!

 

[liralita]

Good to know! Hope it works out well for her.

I think that looks like a portfolio that the guy is carrying.

I assume she'd be with The Society if she's with Elite London but I guess we'll have to wait and see!

Clara signed with IMG New York!

That's really good news for her, I expect we'll be seeing a lot more of her from now on.

 

[stolemybicycle]

Well she made it to New York! There are a few new pics on her instagram (clara.mcs) but I don't know how to post them here.

Glad she's finally in New York... not too sure about the brassy blonde hair though, her own colour was much better. Nothing a toner can't fix though.

I'm hoping she's snapped up by Chloé next fashion week, she has the look for them!

She modelled in the Naeem Kahn Bridal show yesterday!!

I can't tell if IMG are trying to make her a redhead or if someone just messed up on her dye job. Blonde suits her best but I guess they're trying to distance her from Rosie.
