At just four years old, Paisley Elizabeth Sullivan has already made waves in the entertainment and modelling industries, earning the title of the youngest international model in the world. She is also the face of Dreams to Reality, an initiative helping young aspiring models step into the industry.
Paisley’s journey into the limelight began at just six weeks old when she was cast in the film Wolf Like Me, playing the role of baby Lisa. This remarkable debut earned her an IMDb (Internet Movie Database) profile—a prestigious achievement for someone so young. From there, she quickly became a sought-after face for various photoshoots, working with brands such as Tutu Monde and Hair by Courtney. She continued to gain momentum in the industry, even landing a role on the television series BUMP.
Paisley’s love for being on stage and in front of the camera became evident early on. At just one year old, she entered her first pageant, where her natural talent for performance shone. She claimed the Theme Supreme title—an impressive feat in the pageant world, ranking fourth overall across all age groups.
This success sparked a passion that would see Paisley continue to excel in pageantry, racking up numerous Supreme titles, including the prestigious Formal Supreme—a particularly difficult achievement, even for much older contestants. At just three years old, she secured her first major national title, being crowned Mini Miss Earth 2025. She also proudly holds the title of Tiny Miss Australia 2024 – Regency.
Paisley’s achievements quickly caught the attention of the global fashion scene. She was scouted to walk in Fashion Week 2024 and invited to showcase her talent in Paris, London, New York, and Milan. Paisley was on the billboard in Times Square, New York City, the Big Apple. Despite her excitement, her family decided to pace her career, opting for a single international event at the age of two.
Her appearance on the runway made international headlines, as it was unheard of for a child so young to walk in a major fashion event. This breakthrough led to multiple magazine features and even her own segment on Sunrise, Australia’s premier morning television program.
Paisley’s impact on the modelling industry extends beyond her own success. Through Dreams to Reality Runway, her family has built a platform for young Australian models to gain exposure and opportunities in the fashion world.
