[edit] Background
Ashly was born and raised in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. After landing her first commercial at the age of 8 she went on to study drama and dance throughout her teenage years. Ashly has modelled for many fashion brands including Christian Lacroix (FRANCE), One Teaspoon (AUS)[1], Rock And Republic Jeans (USA) and Flora Kung (USA). Ashly’s modelling career really took off when her sensational 37-inch legs (insured for £1 million) won her a coveted slot as one of the models for the annual Rock and Republic show in LA. Since then the stunning Scottish model and actress had landed other top international assignments. She has been named as the new face of top global fashion label, Flora Kung, after being personally chosen by American-based Flora Kung herself to re-launch her range after a meeting with the designer in New York last year. As well as her modelling work, Ashly has seen her film career take off with roles in a number of Hollywood movies, including teen comedy Van Wilder II and horror flick Goldfield Murders. More recently she appeared as Kelly in the 2008 movie ‘The Portal’ starring alongside Michael Madsen and Stacy Keach.
