There’s just something about this classic Canadian beauty and her animated personality. In an exclusive interview with Elite Model Amanda Dyer, we were instantly won over by her charm, wit and refined style.

I would have to say it’s a mix between classic, chic and Avant Garde.
What would you not be caught dead doing?
If you’re dead then it wouldn’t matter so the skies the limit!!!
If you could give an aspiring model one piece of advice, what would it be?
A lot of models do not take modeling seriously they have to understand its a job just like anything else and one must always be professional and bring a positive attitude (every day) to the workplace.
There are thousands of models out there – if you do not have a positive personality they will eat you up and spit you out.

My Boyfriend turns me on that’s all you need to know 😉

The best part of my job is traveling to different places meeting new people and learning about different cultures.

I get my inspirations from Magazines, Celebrities, Designers, fashion websites and just from people whom I work with in the Industry.
If you weren’t an elite model what would you be?
Would love to own a restaurant/bar either in the city or on an Island somewhere.
What are your 4 must haves in your bag?
Concealer, blush, Mirror and lip gloss.
6 words to sum you up?

What would you not do in Singapore that you did overseas?

Who in the fashion and modeling industry have you always wanted to work with?
