Charise, from Wath - who is also a gymnast competing at a national level - was one of 30 finalists at the national final on October 11 at The Crown Plaza Hotel in Chester.
The Barnsley College student was up against finalists from across England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland as they took to the catwalk to model both evening and cocktail dresses.
Her whole family attended the glitzy event to show their support.
But Charise is not stopping there and has further ambitions.
She will be competing in the National Gymnastics Finals at Surrey Sports Park in November.
Charise previously told the Advertiser: “My goal is to inspire others that beauty comes from believing in yourself.”
