Last on the show schedule, Paris Fashion Week closes a month of runway shows - some might say saving the best til last! New faces and seasoned stars, this is how some of the girls of Elite Model Look got on.

Mathilde Rastelli opens Givenchy

Fresh from Elite Model Look 2015, Italian beauty Matilde Rastelli was chosen to open the Givenchy show. “I spent the entire week at Givenchy HQ for fittings but I only found out that I was opening in the morning, a few hours before the show!” she told us. “Meeting Riccardo, Katy England, Pat and Guido Palau, these people that I have always admired, was amazing!”
