"I'm both excited and nervous. Walking a runway, especially in heels, is definitely outside my comfort zone, but the iconic Sydney Opera House backdrop makes it an unforgettable opportunity.

"I can't wait to meet the other incredible women and celebrate being part of this movement."

The theme of Walk Your Worth embodies L'Oréal Paris' iconic "Because You're Worth It" tagline.

"L'Oréal Paris is a brand I've known and loved since I was a teenager buying my first mascara and lipstick," Fox shared.

"Being born in France, I remember growing up seeing the ads in French and English, and that French connection makes it such a lovely fit.

"'Because You're Worth It' resonated with me as an athlete and as a woman, and it's just surreal to now be part of the L'Oréal Paris family alongside so many incredible women celebrating self-worth and empowerment."

Nadia Adelina L'Oréal, Paris Australia Brand Director, said the runway show brings together an inspiring and diverse group of women who reflect a modern and inclusive vision of beauty.

"For L'Oréal Paris, beauty is about more than what you look like, and all of these women – led by Jessica Fox, Madeleine Madden, and Riley Hemson – are dedicated to uplifting and empowering every Australian woman to believe in her own inherent worth," Adelina said.
