Louise Maselis

[Saracita]

This young Belgian is one of my favorites in the 2008 EML contest. It wasn't love at first sight, but there's just something about Louise that intrigues me, I keep going back to her photos.

Her face is very unassuming, almost plain in candids, but she photographs well.

And of course being 5'11'' doesn't hurt either

Same here, wasn't love at first sight but the more I see her, the more I like and true she seems to be quite intriguing on test shots

She just won the Elite Model Look World Final.

I think she is absolutely gorgeous! And she's from BELGIUM! Love

I only like her face in half-profile. The tests are nice because of the angles, makeup, and retouching, but she looked really plain at the final. Especially next to Sun Feifei.

She'll make a great runway girl, but I'm not sure if she's unique enough (given the plethora of models with a similar look) to really convince me in photos.

That said she's still undeniably gorgeous. Perhaps she'll grow on me like she did for others in this thread.

There's something about her face that I love, especially when she's giving that "tough" look like in the first pic in #17.

I heard she's very... maybe charming isn't the right word exactly, but I guess you could say charismatic. This matters in real life and even more when people with different tastes have to agree on a winner. I think there were other girls with great (maybe more) potential, but it's not really important. You can pick the top groupe, but almost never tell who will be the "real" winner/s. And of course there's a bit of politics too In a couple of years there will be anothers Sigrid and Constance popping up, it always happens. Except now you guys are tracking everyone, so it will not be a surprise moment (maybe Constance was the last, I think most people didn't know her at all)
