Brazil Fashion


Modelinia has a backstage pass to São Paulo Fashion Week, home turf of our favorite Brazilian catwalkers and one of the world’s top fashion events.We share all of the behind-the-scenes gossip and details on the fresh faces you love, straight from our spy, Isabelle Miller.
                                           Day One
You know things are off to a stellar start when Gisele brings the fashion crowd to their feet by simply flashing a thumbs-up. Brazil’s greatest export opened Colcci,the sexy beachy collection that capped off Day One of SPFW. She did three turns on the runway, rocking the collection’s short shorts and high heels.
Thanks to Gisele, Sala 1 at the Pavilhão da Bienal do Ibirapuera was packed to standing-room capacity. Colcci paid the big bucks to interrupt her honeymoon, and it was worth it to see the Brasileira toss her trademark waves and bump her hip at the end of the runway.Everyone was mad for Jesus Luz’s second turn at São Paulo. Has it only been six months since his debut at Colcci’s Winter 2009 show? Even the Vogue girls couldn’t stop talking about Madonna’s much-younger, sometime boyfriend. Backstage in hair and makeup, the Voguettes asked the rest of the models what they thought about Jesus’ presence at SPFW. Did he deserve to be there? His arrival to the Bienal almost caused a stampede, and the crowd roared when he followed Gisele on the runway to a remix of Madonna’s “Hung Up.”P.S. We heard that Gisele had a special delivery of coxinha—a kind of Brazilian fried chicken—and coconut water delivered to her private dressing room before the Colcci show. Models indulged in sushi rolls while crisply uniformed massage therapists worked on their weary feet. Espresso and fresh squeezed juices were the beverages du jour.
