The Lakme Fashion Week's (LFW) Summer/Resort 2019 edition will introduce five new models during the upcoming fashion event.
 

The new faces Jayalakshmi, Shwetaa, Scarlet, Stacy, and Kate were selected from over 100 Indian and International participants that took part in model auditions hosted by LFW in Mumbai.
 
The auditions were judged by actress Malaika Arora; fashion show director Anu Ahuja; Ashwath Swaminathan, head of innovations at Lakme and Jaspreet Chandok, vice president and head of fashion at IMG Reliance.

Malaika said in a statement said, "I give full credit to each contestant who came today to audition as I understand their anxiety of being on the ramp. What we were looking for was individuality on the ramp and we were glad to have discovered that in the winners we chose today."
 
Chandok added, "Another season of LFW brings together new opportunities and we look forward to these new finds breaking through and making their mark in the fashion industry."
 
The fashion week is credited with launching the careers of many big names like Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Anjali Lama, Bhumika Arora, Pooja Mor, and Kiara Advani.
 
LFW Summer/Resort 2019 is scheduled to take place from January 30 to February 3 at Jio Garden, Bandra-Kurla Complex in Mumbai.
