Because she is an advocate, activist, teacher and British Vogue cover model, is she very busy all the time. She also happens to be a ‘little person’ – the term used to describe a person with achondroplasia. This is a condition which means that she shorter-than-average limbs has. It is one of her goals to change in our society the lack of representation of people with disabilities. Disabled people are still not visible in television, museums, dolls, books – and fashion – nowadays enough. Sinéad has been always fascinated by fashion and says she was “fashionobsessed” as a teenager, but it is difficult to find cool clothes when you are three-and-a-half-feet tall. But Sinéad gave never up. She was in September 2019 the first little person ever on the cover of Vogue Magazine, but that was not the end of her love story with fashion. She was one of several disability advocates and disabled models who were featured in May 2023 prominently in a special issue of Vogue. The title of the issue was Reframing Fashion: Dynamic, Daring & Disabled, and once again, Sinéad was on the cover of the magazine, wearing a cool outfit by Alexander McQueen that her teenage self would have approved of.
