Aurora Talarico, 16, catapulted to the world of high fashion last July when she opened Valentino’s Vatican-themed couture show.

Since then, the Italian newcomer has scored a prime spot in Pier Paolo Piccioli's spring/summer 2018 advertising campaign for the Italian brand, co-starring alongside model - and her inspiration - Gigi Hadid. The young beauty has also mastered social media, capturing her experiences and travels in Instagram posts.
