Mackay's famous photobomber to become a runway star

GEORGIA Knoll's aspiration to become a fashion model is becoming a reality.

Georgia has been invited, as a special guest model, to the Multicap's FashionAble event to be held in Brisbane on October 29.

FashionAble is a runway event celebrating ability and diversity. The event is being hosted by Multicap for the second time this year, to raise much needed funds and awareness about people living with disability.

Georgia shot to fame after 'photo bombing' a local news segment on television:

Georgia said she was extremely excited to be given the opportunity to walk the runway.

"I haven't done anything like this before and I'm really looking forward to it," she said.

"I hope I do really well and I'd like to thank photographer Nekea Blagoev from Get Smashed Art who did a fantastic job with my photos."

Debra Knoll, Georgia's mother, said she was proud of her daughter's achievements and, as a parent, seeing her happy was all she could ask for.

"Georgia leads a very proactive life, she has a real interest in people with disabilities and she's a good advocate for people with disabilities," she said.

"I think if Georgia can put out there that people with disabilities can lead a great life and achieve lots of things it's very positive."

Multicap chief executive officer Joanne Jessop said they were delighted to welcome Georgia to their fashion event.
