As I delve into the inspiring story of Allegra, the 16-year-old daughter of Australian television personality Jessica Rowe, I am struck by her determination and resilience. It’s clear that Allegra is following in her mother’s footsteps, but carving out her own path in the world of fashion.


In an impressive comeback, Jessica Rowe strutted down the runway during the L’Oréal Paris Walk Your Self-Worth event held in Sydney on Thursday, reminiscent of her peak modelling days.

Previously renowned actress, now aged 54, gracefully displayed her charm at the evening event held outdoors near the Sydney Harbour Bridge, effortlessly showcasing her style and poise.

After her 17-year-old daughter Allegra, whom she has with her husband Peter Overton, made a significant stride in her modeling career only a few months ago, she is now making her comeback on the runway.

Jess showcased her most attractive poses, drawing attention from the crowd, as she gracefully donned a striking white dress embellished with black designs, flowers, sequins, and beads.

She added a bit of height with some black high-heels, which also flaunted her well-toned legs thanks to the bold slit on her dress.

Jessica gracefully held up her flowing train with one hand while she smiled and waved at the spectators, who endured the rain to catch a glimpse of the astonishing performance.

Previously on Studio 10, the host adorned an eye-catching outfit with a pair of elegant silver drop earrings and accentuated it with a splash of vibrant red lipstick.

This year, we held the inaugural edition of the Walk Your Worth fashion show, which draws inspiration from L’Oréal’s well-known motto, “You’re Worth It.

Notable individuals such as Olympic athlete Jessica Fox, actress Madeleine Madden, and content creator Riley Hemson participated in a fashion show that champions the creative self-expression of women.

Previously, model-turned-podcaster Jessica has graced the runway before; her career started in the ’80s when she posed for well-known brands like David Jones.

After nurturing her daughter Allegra’s interest in the fashion world and assisting her in launching a modeling career, she has now returned to her original roots in fashion.

In May, Allegra first appeared at Australian Fashion Week, and it was Jessica who cheerfully witnessed this event. Later on, the youngster disclosed that her mother played a crucial role in securing this opportunity for her.

She acknowledged that her mom played a significant role in helping her kickstart her career in the cut-throat modeling industry, as she reached out to her own agency for her.

Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve been enamored with the idea of modeling. My passion for fashion and the art of putting together unique outfits even extended to playing dress-up using pieces from my mom’s closet,” I confessed to Stellar Magazine.

In the ninth grade, a strong sense of curiosity and interest ignited within me. To satisfy this newfound fascination, my mother contacted an agency she had modeled for when she was roughly my age.

Without any signs of letting up, Allegra is aiming to secure spots on the high-profile Paris fashion runways next.

As an ardent admirer putting this into my own words, I can’t help but brim with pride as my dear daughter Allegra pours all her energy into reaching her aspirations. Her father, Peter, a presenter on Channel Nine news, echoes the same sentiment.

He mentioned that modelling can be challenging from various aspects, yet she expressed her determination to do her best, which I find commendable.

At May’s Carriageworks debut of Allegra’s AFW performance, Jessica appeared just as proud as any mother would, watching attentively.

At the same moment, Jessica shared on Instagram, she couldn’t help but exclaim: “Well done, Allegra! You’re so courageous and resilient… It’s simply delightful watching you realize your dreams.

‘And yes I bawled happy tears afterwards…. A day we’ll never forget.’

16-year-old Allegra made her entrance into the fashion industry by securing a contract with Priscilla’s Models, as early as January 2023, only a few weeks following her birthday.

In the months that passed, I found myself stepping onto the prestigious stage before the breathtaking Sydney Opera House, gracing the AJE Athletica runway for their 23 collection. With each stride, I caught the eyes of those in attendance, and my tearful mother was there every step of the way, cheering me on.

Jessica and her spouse, Peter, tied the knot back in 2004. They are also blessed with a 15-year-old daughter named Giselle together.
