Early life[edit]
El Maslouhi was born to an Italian mother and Moroccan father, and has a younger sister. They lived in the Niguarda district of Milan.
For a long time El Maslouhi's style was a "Wes Anderson style T-shirt and Bermuda shorts," and was much more interested in rethinking the world than going shopping. She was a scout for 11 years and spent weekends outside walking.[3]
Career[edit]
El Maslouhi began modeling at age 18, upon which a friend of her mother connected her with an Italian casting director. She was signed by VIVA Model Management in Milan. Her debut fashion show was walking for Alberta Ferretti during the A/W 2019 season. Having been cast in the Dior show that took place in Marrakech, Morocco, and the Jacquemus show in Provence, the French Riviera, she decided to end her college studies and model full-time.[3]
