TV talent: Mecia Simson models for Company

She appears on the front cover of the August edition wearing a short, silver asymmetric dress with her dark hair loosely pinned up.

Another shot features Simson lying on a lawn in skyscraper black heels, sequinned trousers and cropped corset-style top.

The hopeful saw off competition from 20 other contestants including runners-up Sophie Sumner, 18, from Oxford, who came second, and Jade McSorley, 21, from Middlesbrough, who came third.
Her prize included the cover shoot and a contract with agency Models 1.

Company editor Victoria White said: "Mecia is the perfect cover model for Company. Not only is she a beautiful girl, but she's passionate, dedicated and a great inspiration for those Company readers who want to follow in her footsteps and achieve their own goals.

"We're looking forward to Mecia's debut in the August issue of Company and wish her all the best for what should be a very successful future."

The August issue of Company goes on sale on July 11.
