ROUND 6 Silvia from Slovakia 14 years old, 175 cm/5'9'' Modeling has always been a dream for me and as long as I can remember I’ve loved to dress up and take pictures of myself. So I’m really exited that I was discovered by a model scout while I was out walking. I think you can say that I’m addicted to fashion, I love flipping through magazines like Slovakien Eva and Italien Vouge, but I also love to check out new collections on internet and go shopping of course. My favorite model is Adriana Lima, I think that she’s amazing, she is just so beautiful and has a great career. VS. Trinidad from Chile 14 years old, 5'9'' From Santiago to Shanghai, my passion for fashion is flying around the world, and I still can’t believe my luck to be Finalist, I’ll always remember the moment when my name was called as the winner of Elite Model Look : SO wonderful, I felt like I would just kiss everybody. Fashion is my dream since I am 4 years old, and every time people would ask me what I wanted to do as a job I would say « model » without one second of hesitation. At twelve I was scouted by an agent from Elite, but I had to wait until now since I was too young, even if I was already so impatient. My diary 31-10-2012 Nothing is more important to me than fulfilling my dreams, and my family and friends are incredibly proud and happy, knowing how much catwalks, fashion shoots, fittings and runways mean for me. Whenever I have a minute I read fashion magazines and blogs to know all about upcoming trends and colors, coming from Europe to my country. No crazy beauty secret to share with you sorry, just the good old truth of going to bed early, working out often, and eating healthy. AND indulging on chocolate sometime- otherwise life is too sad. Growing up watching every move and dress of Gisele Bundchen on the runways, she became my idol of course, and thanks to my discipline, passion and desire to win, I hope I will walk the runway by her side one day, may be wearing Valentino, Chanel or Versace. Who knows, I’ve finally come to trust my lucky star ! 01-11-2012 Hi everybody! Enough about fashion and dresses, let me talk about my other passion in life, sports : I am an athlete and a big fan of high jump, long jump and pole vault fences, and I even got my country selected in several competitions. But I love surfing, skiing and horse-riding too, and I am truly blessed to live somewhere so connected to nature, with amazing landscapes. Just look at these photos of Santiago and the countryside, Chile is so diverse and amazing!

ROUND 5 Marilhea from France 18 years old, 180 cm/5'11'' I am a very simple girl, naturally smiling and perfectionnist: I am passionate about fashion, but I like drawing very much too, and other varieties of art: I am studying at the Beaux Arts, and becoming a model is a chance for me to discover a new and creative world that has always fascinated me, the little girl from the countryside! I love all things related to fashion, art and design, and my favorite memories of this adventure are definitely the priceless bonds I've created with the other finalists. vs. Moyin from Nigeria 17 years old, 177 cm/5'10'' I am from Ondo state, where I was secretly dreaming of becoming a model and posing in front of my mirrors, when I was discovered by Beth Model Management Africa, my current agency. My hobbies are dancing, singing and drawing, my passions are modeling, how surprising! My family and friends are thrilled for me, and my dad can't believe I'll participate to the Elite World Final in Shanghai. I'm so excited myself to do photo shoots and parade on the catwalk! Winning the competition was huge for me because I am now recognized, plus I enjoy the fittings for designers I have always admired.

ROUND 4 Alecia from Cape-Verde 15 years old, 175 cm/5'9'' I would love to live and work in Paris, the capital of fashion! That's why I want to be the best I can, and give everything to this Final. It could be such an amazing springboard for my whole career. I remember reading magazines when I was a little girl, dreaming it would be me one day, but I've always had many other interests and hobbies, which I think are essential to lead a balanced and serene life: I love dancing, being with friends and working out. I'm passionate about fashion and medicine, which are closer than you may think! vs. Lorena from Romania 14 years old, 179 cm/5'9'' I feel like the luckiest person in the universe right now, to be scouted at such a young age, in the small town where I live with my family in the North part of Romania. It's not exactly the capital of fashion, but I was discovered by a model scout when I was out shopping with my mum, and now I feel like everything is possible! I like hanging out with my friends, play rummy and listen to music. I do my best to eat healthy and drink a lot of water, and I do sports when I've eaten too much chocolate and ice cream- so pretty often! My favorite model is Natalia Vodianova, her beauty and her story are like a modern fairy tale.
