Like Lineisy Montero and Ysaunny Brito before her, Chanel De Leon Gomez is another striking Dominican beauty discovered by Ossygeno Models. Now walking the runways alongside Montero, De Leon Gomez fits right in with Tisci’s girl gang. With the slicked-back hair and bleached brows she sported at the show, De Leon Gomez channeled edgy elegance—but off-duty, her natural look is equally striking.

Croatian stunner Faretta is the kind of model whose beauty speaks for itself—who needs a last name when you’ve got cheekbones like that? In an era of oversharing, Faretta’s mystery is appealing: only a handful of Instagram posts, no live-streams or blogs, just an incredible face and the ability to stand out on a supermodel-filled catwalk. That’s no small feat.

Delicate features and strong brows make Jay Jankowska one of the rare kewpies to appear on Tisci’s runway, but don’t let her cuteness fool you—this girl can walk! Stomping down the catwalk with attitude to spare, Jankowska proves you don’t have to be a glamazon to deliver the goods.

Riccardo Tisci has always been partial to striking Italian models, and Matilde Rastelli is the latest to catch his eye. The winner of Elite Model Look Italia 2015, Rastelli has been hard at work since then, appearing in Italian Vogue and building up her portfolio. Opening Givenchy is the kind of accomplishment that pushes new models into the limelight, but with her dramatic features, Rastelli may find even more success in front of the camera.

Fashion may be filled with Dutch talent at the moment, but Merel van Mierlo stands out from the pack. Athletic, elegant, and 5-foot-11, Van Mierlo calls to mind Tisci favorites like Patricia van der Vliet and Veroniek Gielkens. A skier with a love of travel and an infectious smile, Van Mierlo is a newcomer with mass appeal.
