Riam Dean was made to stay in the luxury clothing store's stock room as she did not fit the brand's image.
She was awarded the sum by a London employment tribunal for unlawful harassment although it ruled she did not suffer from disability discrimination.
According to BBC reports, Dean received £136 basic compensation, £1,077 for loss of earnings and £6,800 for ‘hurt feelings'.
In a statement, David Cupps, general counsel of Abercrombie & Fitch said: "We are pleased that the tribunal found that Abercrombie & Fitch did not discriminate against Ms Dean on grounds of her disability and also found that Abercrombie & Fitch provided Ms Dean with the accommodation she requested.
"While the tribunal did make a finding of failure to accommodate and harassment, that finding was based on the events of a single day - events that were not at all representative of Ms Dean's overall employment with Abercrombie & Fitch. We continue to believe that these events resulted from a misunderstanding that could have been avoided by better communication on the part of both parties.
"We were happy to employ Ms Dean, and we have always been, and will continue to be, supportive of the rights of disabled individuals."
