Lisa Woodman goes from brassy to classy

Mum-of-four Lisa Woodman set chins wagging (especially on our Facebook page here) about her dress sense after appearing exclusively in the Worcester News.

But she has been treated to a classy makeover and a new look, courtesy of a national daily newspaper.

And the 28-year-old has even been stopping traffic in the city’s streets, as curious drivers wonder whether it is really her.

Miss Woodman was taken to the Fownes Hotel, Worcester, and photographed under studio lighting, with professional make-up and hair styling on Tuesday – and said that she thoroughly enjoyed the model treatment.

“I didn’t even recognise myself,” said Miss Woodman, of Gillam Street, Rainbow Hill, Worcester.

“I love the pictures and I would wear that stuff out – but not this week, I’ve already got my outfit planned. It’s a silver and white bikini-type outfit.”

Miss Woodman said she loved her new hairstyle and she wanted to keep it.

She revealed a popular morning television programme had also been in touch inviting her onto the show, but she has yet to schedule a date for her appearance.

“I had no idea what they were going to do, but it was high street dresses and things,” she said.

“Although the shoes they had me in were so high and tight that my feet are still killing me.”

She said she was still shocked at the interest in the story from gossip columnists to the tabloids, but also surprised at the judgemental vitriol of some people who had commented.

“I cannot believe how nasty some of the comments were,” said the former hospital cleaner.

“People are saying that I paid for my boobs with benefit money.

“I worked hard to pay for them myself actually, they cost me £5,000. I’ve only been out of work for a few months.”

She has also had some offers from across the world to “go and party” but has refused, and is keeping her feet firmly on the ground.

She said: “It’s gone mad – but I’ll be going out this weekend with my mates.”
