Rising Stars: Bernadette Hagans


09 09 2020

Bernadette Hagans, 24, has been hailed as an inspiration since being unveiled as one of the new faces of Kurt Geiger in early September.

The Belfast born model lost her right leg above the knee in 2018, after she was diagnosed with a rare form of soft tissue cancer, and has since gone on to sign with Zebedee Management, an agency which specialises in models with disabilities, and appeared in campaigns for brands including Primark. Now starring in Kurt Geiger’s People Empowered campaign, Hagans has expressed her desire to continue championing diversity in fashion, and has also become an ambassador for young people’s cancer charity CLIC Sargent.
