Vanessa Axente, 16, Hungary:
She has been modeling since she was 14, but she really caught everyone's eye earlier this year when she opened as an exclusive for Prada AW12 and later landed the campaign. Having walked this season for the likes of Alexander McQueen, Miu Miu, Chloé, Valentino, Dior, Loewe, Celine, Nina Ricci, Giles and Calvin Klein just to name a few, Vanessa is perhaps the hottest face of spring.

Mackenzie Drazan, 17, California, U.S:
The equestrian star has been sought after by model scouts since she was 13, but her parents decided it was best for Mackenzie to put off modeling until she finished school. In 2010, while still a sophomore, she was sent to Paris and was cast for the Valentino Haute Couture show. Now that the school duties have been fulfilled, the runways can't get enough of the freckled, blue-eyed beauty.

Daniela Braga, 19, Sao Paulo, Brasil:
Soon after being scouted last year while working in a local drugstore, Daniela began walking the New York shows and fast-tracked to the top as an exclusive for Givenchy doing the Autumn Winter 2012 ready to wear show, Resort 2013, Autumn Winter 2012 Haute Couture and became one of the faces of the campaign. Her stunning bone structure and emerald eyes along with her energy and charisma are bound to make her part of the Brazilian supermodel hall of fame. She dreams of becoming one of Victoria's Secret Angels; I would say that's a done deal for Daniela.
