Garota do Brasil

It is amazing and fascinating at the same time to compare cultural differences when browsing through international magazines, such as Vogue. Take the UK edition and the Brazilian one and you see the difference.
Here in Brazil Vogue has some editorial tradition: April to Sept the magazine is all about the winter and summer collections, August dedicated to luxury, March about Jeans, May is the anniversary edition. February though is a very special month, the Vogue Autor, when they select a testimonial with a big part of the magazine and advertising dedicated to that personality. I have seen Dorival Caymmi, Caetano Veloso, Paulo Atran, Gilberto Gil, Burle Max, Jorge Amado in past editions. This year it is Naomi Campbell, declared a Garota do Brasil. And she has some special affection for Brazil, coming down frequently. The pics of Gui Paganini, the setting on a farm in Alagoas and her  - just stunning!! Sugar and Favelas (hope you understand my allusion).
