Model Casting F/W 2025.26

[Faith Akiyama]

Louis Vuitton always has the most intriguing newbies! Love the casting

And they give shorter girls a chance!

I think there were eight new or new-ish there:

Devon Ross
Gabriela Nied
Lv Ang
Maria Araujo
Maria Mavarez
Marylore Heck (Opener)
Nathalie Blendermann
Rikke Nora

Wow you're fast! thank you for that x

 

[Malaya]

Couldn't tell if it's the lighting or makeup or what but Vuitton had some REALLY good new faces.

 

[Armani]

Neat list, almost have all of them on mine too. Had too double-check Quiyue, is it me or did she debut in Paris only? Her book at Elite London is pretty amazing for something with just test shots and polas.

Indeed, she debuted at Alaia and is having herself a stellar PFW <3

Faith, you absolute lifesaver 😭🫂 Such a strong list of newfaces, IMO the strongest batch out of the whole season by far. Hope most aren’t contracted into exclusivity for too many seasons.

 

[Faith Akiyama]

Also Constanze Rosmalen. Prada and now exclusive for LV.

Oh yes, I didn't count her because of Prada actually (I would've included Claire, Jacqui, Libby T otherwise too). The list of eight didn't walk A-level shows (That I'm aware of) before LV. Devon did do some runway here and there a few years back, but nothing career defining.

Marylore Heck was Worldwide Exclusive opening for Louis Vuitton

i didnt like Libby until i saw her print work and she's a great model. The androgynous face makes her very recognizable on the runway.

 

[Ludwig]

i like Ella Dalton. She should have booked more shows in Paris. She's a perfect Chloé girl

 

[Simera]

Libby Taverner
Claire Biegalski
Jacqui Hooper
Nastassia Legrand
Atheic Geng
Lauren Huyskens
Are probably the stand out new faces dominating the catwalk in Paris. ( I may have missed someone )

How do we think they will do next season?
I always get nervous about these newbies, because they can pull an Addison Soens and totally vanish, or an Esther and book C List shows.

Lauren is kinda filler, but I hope the others are future stars in the making! I from posts I have read here I think a lot of us are bored of a majority the current crop of top walkers haha

 

[Armani]

^ I hope Jacqui sustains her momentum for quite a while… one of the strongest faces of the season, newface or not. Athiec’s been modeling for roughly 5 years now but this is easily her breakout season; Achol Kuir’s been in the game for a bit but is also having a glorious breakout. Both of them I’d love to see anywhere at any given moment ❤️

 

[Simera]

I thought Anasofia N. and Xinyue Guo were having a break out moment, but their European bookings weren’t as impressive as I had hoped for them.

Not everyone can have a Betsy Gahan breakout.

Carol Monteiro is doing pretty well too

 

[Cute]

Anok is in Paris and had a fitting at Saint Laurent

There’s footage of Bella in Paris too going to the fitting.

^ New face Josefa Santos was also in the video of Anok at her YSL fitting.
