From Sweaty Lingerie Shoots to Sleeping Beauty Shots

There must be something in the water in Brazil, because some of the world’s hottest supermodels hail from the South American country, and as you can see from this gallery of Alessandra Ambrosio editorials, there is no denying the power of a Brazilian beauty.

30 year old Ambrosio is part of the trio of current Victoria’s Secret Angels that are the highlights of each photo shoot and runway show (the other two being Adriana Lima and Miranda Kerr, of course). While the other Angels are obviously stunning, no one truly compares to those three.

Along with the lingerie brand, Ambrosio has also modeled for Armani Exchange, Christian Dior, Prada, Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, and Ralph Lauren. She has appeared on the covers of Cosmopolitan, Elle, GQ, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire and Vogue.
