Adriana
Lima was born in 1982, in Salvador, Brazil. The blue/gray-eyed
beauty can attribute her exotic good looks to her French,
Portuguese, Native-American, and Caribbean heritage.
Her climb from obscurity
to glam girl occurred after placing second in the Ford Supermodel
of the World Contest (after having won the 1996 Ford Supermodel
of Brazil Contest). Adriana signed with Elite Model Management
at the age of 16, and moved to one of the fashion centers
of the world, New York. |
Once there, her modeling
portfolio only began to expand exponentially, after appearing in
Vogue (Italy) in 1997, as well as Vogue (UK), I-D (UK), Marie Claire
(Brazil), and Vogue (Italy) in 1998. Adriana has also appeared in
Vogue (US, Germany, UK), and Marie Claire (Italy) all in 1999
But one of Adriana's most
notable catwalk appearances was in the Victoria's Secret Summer
2000 Swimwear Catalogue (shot in Cannes), where the Brazilian beauty
shared the spotlight with a bevy of supermodels such as Heidi Klum
and Laetitia Casta. Before her modeling days, Adriana always hoped
to help children, and thanks to her new found popularity, she is
able to work with orphans in Brazil. Whether you have seen her in
an ad, on the runway, or photographed by some of the world's greatest
photographers -- such as Steven Meisel, Peter Lindbergh or Ellen
von Unwerth -- Adriana's beauty speaks volumes.
