Who are the new faces set to debut on the Lakme Fashion Week ramp this season? The auditions have seen 15 young aspiring models shortlisted for the showings. Here's a first look at some of the newbies.

Nicole Faria

This 5'8" dusky beauty hails from Delhi -- and she sure can work a bikini!

Anderson S


The hunky Brazilian is a towering 6'1" tall and is sure to have the ladies in attendance swooning!

Alina Galushka


Ukrainian Alina is 5'10", currently based in Delhi and expects to sizzle in Mumbai this season.

Sunny Kamble


Sunny is a Mumbaiite and has a well-chiselled, 6' bod -- just what the doctor ordered!

Karishma Tanna


From Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi to ramp modelling, 5'10" television actress Karishma Tanna will be making her debut on the catwalk too.

Pravesh Rana


Say hello to Mr India 2008. The 6'2" looker also walked away with three of the most coveted titles at the pageant -- Mr Best Body, Mr Talented and Mr Groovy Voice.

Mirjana Bozovic


Mirjana is also a beauty pageant winner -- the 5'11.5" Serbian stunner represented her country at the Miss World 2007 contest.

Bharat Arora


Mumbai-based Bharat has enjoyed acting stints in daytime soaps like Kahin Toh Hoga and Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki and has also endorsed popular brands like Hutch and Mountain Dew. At 6'2.5", he has also modelled for prominent Indian designers, but will be seen at the LFW for the first time.

Lidia Souza


Yet another Brazilian import, Lidia is 5'7.5" tall and exudes a very waif-like, innocent appeal.

Siddharth Rawal


Mumbai boy Siddharth, on the other hand, is a 6' certified bad boy if his pics are anything to go by!

Poppy Jabbal


One of the Gladrags MegaModel 2009 contestants, pretty Poppy is 5'9" and also hails from Mumbai.

Sangram


And finally, we have Delhiite Sangram rounding off the list -- looks like his 6'1.5" frame gets quite a lot of workouts!
