When you set up your new iPhone you will be given the option to set it up as a new iPhone or restore it from an iCloud backup. If you have already set up your new phone you need to start over by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Contents and Settings. Then set it up again and when given the option choose to restore from your iCloud Backup. Be sure to have it plugged into a charger as restoring from and iCloud backup can take quite a while.
