Episode summaries
Episode 1
- First aired: May 21, 2015
30 semi-finalists arrived at their first challenge: a runway show for Moschino. The male and female models needed to pair up and walk together. The judges thought that most of the models took it as a performance rather than a fashion show and they were not happy about that. Sixteen semi-finalists were chosen for the next round but they were informed that only fourteen finalists would be picked. Afterwards, they had their first photo shoot. The models needed to bring out their personality in the shoot. Only a few of them were able to impress the judges to make the top fourteen and gain entrance into the model home.
