As part of the prize, Ebony will be treated to a day of pampering with beauty and hair treatments and a professional photo shoot that will feature in Queensgate’s autumn/winter edition of the Q Style magazine.

Laura Sayer, marketing manager at Queensgate Shopping Centre and one of the judges, said: “Well done to everyone that entered and especially to Ebony for becoming our overall winner. The finalists were very hard to choose from but we all agreed that Ebony should be our Icon for 2016.”

The four overall finalists were: Laura Zulkute, Lily Sykes, Chloe Walker and Liliana Pires.
