Meet Scarlett Leithold.

The 18-year-old model is known for modeling for Brandy Melville, an Italian teen brand that is wildly popular with teens.

The brand has come under fire for only offering one size - which fits "most" (read: small) - but that hasn't stopped Leithold from attracting a massive following.

Leithold actively engages with her fans on social media - on Instagram, Twitter, and Ask.fm, where she regularly checks in and answers questions.

Get to know the teen model that is taking teen retail by storm.
