Meet Ciara Ridley, the firm's newest sponsored & approved member entering our doors in 2025
Meet Ciara Ridley, the firm's newest sponsored & approved member entering our doors in 2025. Ciara Ridley was hand selected by a brand this past month and enters the agency with already a Runway Fashion Show on the radar.
HER FIRST RUNWAY OFFER - WALKING THE RUNWAY
Yesterday, April 29th, 2025, Ciara had an opportunity to walk at a Fashion Week Runway Show this coming Fall. Ciara, who just joined the agency this past month is new to the modeling scene, yet the agency already found her a way to get her directly on the Runway. "That is the power of relationships and years in the business" says the Fashion PR Firm. We reached out to Ciara with the opportunity, of which she can bypass the casting call to receive the opportunity if it fits her vision and goals for 2025.
This past month, we also sat down with Ciara and learned about the young model and content creator. She has a history that we loved to learn about and a passion for content creating that she feels she can do 'for the rest of her life'. It made us want to dive deeper with her and see what she finds passion and artistic creation to be in her world.
Let's get to know Ciara....
INTERVIEW:
What do you find your passions and desires to be in the world?
- I have a deep passion for both the medical field and the fashion industry. As a medical student, I’m dedicated to learning and making a difference in people’s lives, but I also have a strong creative side that I express through fashion and social media. I want to grow as an influencer because I love connecting with people, sharing my style, and building a platform that inspires confidence and self-expression. My goal is to balance both passions proving that you don’t have to fit into just one box, but can pursue multiple dreams at once.
Tell us a little about your childhood and if it had any effect on who you are as a person today.
- I grew up in a really small town where there weren’t many opportunities, and things like social media and modeling weren’t exactly common; if anything, people saw them as cringey.
- I think that environment had a huge impact on who I am today. Having big ambitions wasn’t considered normal, and not many people went to university or college. Because of that, I’ve learned not to care what other people think of me.
- Growing up in Central Scotland, I had to develop thick skin, especially in high school, where being judged for posting on social media was the norm. My posts would get shared in group chats and made fun of, but in a way, that helped me grow. It taught me to be okay with it and not let other people’s opinions hold me back.
- At the end of the day, people will always have something to say; sometimes out of jealousy, sometimes just because they don’t understand. And that’s okay. You just have to keep doing what you love.
Were you nervous to go into a market that is already so saturated with influencers, content creators, celebrities and bloggers? What made you do it anyway?
- I was extremely nervous. I feel like especially now, everyone loves the idea of having that influencer life of being invited to events and getting the PR packages and being able to turn what you love into a job and that can make it really hard to grow because it’s so common to try and do. I knew deep down that’s always what I wanted to do from a young age, I used to watch Zoella on YouTube as a little girl when the influencer jobs just started taking off and I wanted that life. I used to make YouTube videos when I was like 10 years old and I loved it; showing my shoe collection, get ready with me and other videos like that and I genuinely think that sparked my passion for fashion and content creation because I saw how fun it was.
How would you describe your style and define it?
- would describe my style as a blend of modern but elegant, trendy yet timeless, versatile and well curated
- I dress with intention combining timeless pieces to create a wardrobe that feels both elevated and approachable.
Your Dream Collab?
- My dream collab would be Chanel. The brand’s timeless elegance; along with its Parisian chic aesthetic; is something I truly admire. Chanel embodies sophistication and class; and its history in the fashion world is unmatched. The brand’s attention to detail and commitment to craftsmanship make it a dream collaboration for me. I would love to be a part of that one day.
