The incredible Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott shot Adriana Lima in the Versace for Riachuelo Summer 2014 campaign.

Nightclub-lighting causes Lima's skin to look a muted, purple-ish shade against the [electrifying color backgrounds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela) (featuring cut-out tropical trees and fruit) she is shot against. Lima's garments, chosen by [fashion editor Patti Wilson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity), are equally-as-electrifying. Every piece is loud and eye-catching, announcing its presence with dynamic colors and prints, in typical Versace fashion. Think slinky leopard print dresses, gem-encrusted shirts and blouses festooned with tropical fare like seashells and hibiscus.

Lima's sleek black hair was styled by hair expert Akki Shirakawa, while makeup artist Sammy Mourabit applied [dark eyeliner and lipstick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rendezvous-ivory) that pops in an illuminated ultraviolet shade.
