Michelle’s beauty product campaigns include MAC, Sephora and Neutrogena. She has also been photographied for Burberry, Tommy Hilfiger, Cartier, Betsy Johnson, Michael Kors, Baby Phat, H&M, Gap and Levis, by photographers such as Mario Testino, Peter Lindbergh, Patrick Demarchelier and Steven Meisel, and featured in fashion spreads for Harper's Bazaar, Italian Vanity Fair and V. She modeled for Copperwheat Blundell (Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter 2000 fashion show)), Luella, Missoni (Ready-to-Wear Spring/Summer 2002 fashion shows), and during the Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter 2002 fashion week she modeled for the famous brands Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, John Galliano and Versus Versace. But her career as a runway model stopped abruptly after she fell down repeatedly and had to remove her shoes while walking for the Gucci Fall/Winter 2002 Ready-to-Wear fashion show, where the catwalk was covered in faux sheepskin.

She then turned to television, and her TV credits include presenting The Fashion Show, a 10-episode mini-serie with George Lamb and Abbey Clancy aired on ITV2 from September to November 2008, hosting the live broadcast of Arthur's Day celebrations and being a talking head on BBC's The Noughties.. Was That It? in 2009.

In 2011, it was announced Michelle would be hosting a celebrity gossip show on E4. However, after only three episodes, the show was axed by E4 after the senior production staff were changed without due notification to E4.
