After over a decade as the face of Myer, Jennifer Hawkins has walked her final runway show for the Australian department store.
After the appointment of Elyse Knowles as ambassador, many speculated the former Miss Universe would resign from her 12-year reign, something she confirmed in a lengthy Instagram post last week.
“Way back in 2006 I was approached by Myer to sign a small 3-month contract to feature in a Christmas campaign. Little did I know then that it would lead to being their Face and spokesperson,” Jen wrote.
“It’s now been an extraordinary relationship of 12 years! I’ve always been very proud and extremely grateful to work with such a beautiful and iconic company.”
“After 12 years it’s time to move onto a new chapter in my life. I’ll be finishing up my role with Myer this November but I would like to take this moment to thank everyone at Myer – the staff, the amazing designers, the suppliers and everyone else for working alongside me over those 12 years,” she continued.
“Myer will always hold a special place in my heart and I wish the Myer team every success for the future.”
Last night, at Myer’s Spring/Summer 2018 collections launch in Sydney, Jen walked her final show for the brand, as Elyse Knowles and Josh Gibson walked their first.
