It seems as though one aspiring young model may have got her big break thanks to a pair of Kickers shoes.

The footwear manufacturer was all set to photograph its new range on location at Legoland with the children of the theme parks staff and their friends taking the starring roles.

However, there was one thing missing – an eight-year-old girl to model some of the shoes.

This is where Sophia came in. After recently signing up with Models Direct she was chosen by the firm to feature in the Kickers advert for her first ever assignment.

Her mother Melanie said: “Sophia had to model Kickers shoes and change into different outfits in all different areas of Legoland. Everyone was so nice and the shoes were great too.”

She added that her daughter “loved every minute of it”.

Kickers manufacture shoes for men and women and are often a favourite among school children.
