Supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio returns to the spotlight with her ninth cover for Vogue Brazil, celebrating the magazine’s 50th anniversary in its January 2025 issue. Photographed by Nicole Heiniger (Instagram), the cover marks a significant moment for Ambrosio, who last appeared on the magazine seven years ago.
The editorial, shot at a stunning coastal residence designed by Vilanova Artigas in Guarujá, São Paulo, pays homage to Brazil’s vibrant summer aesthetic. Ambrosio wears an opulent mix of golden raffia, silk, and organza, styled by Rita Lazzarotti (Instagram), highlighting Vogue Brazil’s must-have fabrics for the 2025 season. The beauty direction, led by Henrique Martins (Instagram), enhances Alessandra’s natural allure with sun-kissed skin and effortless hair.
“It was one of my favorite edits to make. I love taking pictures at the beach. ‘Forever on vacation’ is my life expression, my mantra,” Ambrosio shared in an interview for the issue. The supermodel’s affinity for the beach lifestyle shines through, as she balances her busy career with moments of serenity.
The cover also signals a broader celebration for Vogue Brazil’s milestone year, with plans to feature multiple Brazilian supermodels throughout 2025. Editor-in-chief Beatriz Corrêa (Vogue Brazil Instagram) notes, “Alessandra represents the essence of Brazilian beauty and elegance, making her the perfect choice to launch this landmark year for us.”
Ambrosio, who traveled from her home in Santa Monica to São Paulo for the shoot, continues to embody the spirit of Brazilian fashion on a global scale. The collaboration between Ambrosio, Heiniger, and the Vogue Brazil team captures not just the model’s enduring legacy but also the vibrant energy of the country’s fashion scene.
This issue of Vogue Brazil is now available, offering readers a glimpse into both the past and future of Brazilian style as the magazine kicks off its golden anniversary.
