www.womanthismonth.com 29 August 2013 Backstage at Milan Fashion Week Lauren, Isabel Marant, Mango and many other brands. She is also an easy face to spot in Victoria’s Secret’s mega runway shows. Her most recent work is the autumn/winter 2013 campaign for Louis Vuitton photographed by Steven Meisel, along with the other Brazilian top model Gisele Bündchen. Life and work In 2005 she got married again and a year later she had her second baby boy. The relationship ended in the following year and after staying away from the spotlight for a while, she kept on going with her career. In the autumn/winter campaigns of 2011 she became the model with the highest number of brands using her face. It just proved once again that she is here to stay. Her charismatic look and versatile style seems to translate a brands’ appeal and women from all over the world feel the power of her presence. Last year she designed some pieces in collaboration with the French brand Faith Connexion revealing her personal taste in fashion. In the beginning of 2013, she got the role of ambassador for L’Oreal Paris in Latin America. She is also the face of Vogue Eyewear in Brazil. Authentic woman Isabeli turned 30 in the beginning of July. She is an open-hearted person, saying what she thinks and feels. She believes that this characteristic is her best and worst quality. Fame didn’t change her. What is her secret to have a normal life living amongst those of a high lifestyle? Isabeli lives as an ordinary woman. She doesn’t wear make-up everyday, takes her kids to school when she is in town, goes to the movies, cooks and spends time playing with them. “People don’t recognise me on the streets. I have a normal life,” she says. She experiences the same drama as most working mothers – the same pressure we all have when making tough choices in life. The supermodel shows humble roots and is never afraid to tell everyone that she works to pay the bills and to provide a good life to her kids. She is starting a new decade in her life and it will be another step to go further. The increasing maturity that the responsibilities she has been bearing along the years will give her confidence and bring happiness to her lighter days. She recently said that she feels like the grandma of the modelling society. We believe that the modern world has its arms wide open to all generations. Heidi Klum and Victoria Beckham, both with four kids and over 30, are there to prove that we can be our best in any time of our lives. Isabeli will certainly be one of those glorious ladies we admire in all stages of her life. Her charm is perennial, with or without wrinkles!
