Ambrosio is the model of this generation . Like the
iconic models of the early supermodel era Alessandra
Ambrosio is one of the most recognizable faces in the
world. She
has that special charismatic photogenic look that only
a few supermodels of today have ever had.
Her eyes capture you, drawl you in and tell a story.
It could be the Champs-Élysées in France , a front row
seat at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, or on the
warm sunny beaches of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Her eyes
take you there.
Her
bone structure is purely stunning, so defining , edgy,
and yet soft in the right places that it capture lighting
and shadows perfectly. That is what makes her stand
out , what makes her a supermodel. Not to even mention
her 5'10" physique most women would kill to have,
so amazing that just weeks after having her first child
she walked the runways for the Victoria's Secret fashion
show.
Ambrosio
is this generations supermodel, but what got her interested
in modeling was a model from a few supermodel generations
back, fellow Victoria's Secret model Karen Mulder. When
Ambrosio was around 8 years old she saw a photo of Karen
Mulder in a magazine and hoped to one day be like her.
At
age 12 Ambrosio still had those childhood dreams of
becoming a model, so she enrolled in modeling school.
A few years later she won Brazil's Elite Model Look
contest and that would soon open the door to her dreams
of modeling.
After
winning the prestigious contest Ambrosio landed on the
cover of Brazilian ELLE magazine. The second huge moment
in Ambrosio's early career came in 2000 when she along
with best friend and other Brazilian supermodel Ana
Beatriz Barros were booked for the eye catching Millennium
GUESS? campaign.
When
Ambrosio first left her home in Erechim, Brazil for
New York it was rumored that supermodel Gisele Bündchen
lent Alessandra her apartment for a few weeks and Adriana
Lima help translate English. Rumor or was that the start
of the VS angels Brazilian four supermodel invasion
?
Well it must of been something in beach waters of Brazil
to produce supermodels, because in that same year of
2000 the four beauties from Brazil, Alessandra, Gisele,
Adriana, and Ana walked the runway for Ambrosio's first
Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Since
Ambrosio's career started she's been a spoke model for

Klein, Ralph Lauren, Christian Dior, Giorgio Armani,
and Gucci. She has worked her runway magic for designers
Giorgio Armani, Nicole Miller, Calvin Klein, and Christian
Lacroix just to name a few.
Ambrosio's
look and runway walk is like other, when she takes her
first step until the time she's back off the runway
all eyes and cameras are captivated by her. She is so
unique and appealing that she was selected first spokesmodel
for the Victoria's Secret Pink collection. She has become
the face of Victoria's Secret, sure there is plenty
of other VS angels and they are all loved. However,
you never see a VS commercial or ad campaign without
seeing Alessandra Ambrosio.

launched since 2004.

Alessandra

of humor and loves spending time with her daughter Anja.

the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
