Made in Brazil

New York Fashion Week Is On

The fall shows at Bryant Park started this morning, and I am using that as an excuse to post yet another picture of David Jensen (the Brazilian model was part of the CFDA/GQ Designer Showcase this week).

Even though I am not in New York, expect some coverage of Brazilian models, designers, and trends. Ale Herchcovitch shows his collection tomorrow at 3pm, Iodice makes its New York debut on Monday night, and Carlos Miele shows on Wednesday at 1pm. And for those Project Runway addicts like myself, the final showdown takes place a week from today at 9am.

David For Energie

David Jensen is the hottest Brazilian model around right now. I am loving the fact that the people at Energie did not get rid off his chest hair for the brand's new spring 2008 campaign.

David is also on the cover of the latest Out magazine.

Too Hot For Monday: David Jensen

The Brazilian model scores the cover of the Out magazine's homorrific swimsuit issue, shot in Miami by photographer Nino Muñoz.

Make sure to get a copy of the magazine asap. The swimsuit editorial is beyond hot, and even better than last year's, which was shot in Rio. Click here and here for a preview of David Jensen and his fellow water boys.

Dolce & Gabbana Pump Up The Volume For Fall

It is not often that I wish I were 10 degrees below zero, but the freezing weather is all I can think about after looking at the Dolce & Gabbana fall/ winter 2008 show in Milan. I love all the shearlings, the blanket-like scarves, the loose oversized sweaters, and the eveningwear parade punctuated by skinny ties in the end. All and all, a perfect boho meets English country fantasy, and not a single item I would not wear. My favorite pieces were a copper fur-lined down jacket, and a croc shearling.

The cast included Brazilian models David Jensen, Ricardo Merini, Alexandre Cunha, Andre Ziehe, and Carlos Sander. Question: where were Evandro and Michael Camiloto?

Make sure to take a look at the runway video and backstage pictures of the show.

100% Brazilian Vagabundos

This is officially the funniest Made In Brazil shot I have gotten so far: models Pedro Bissi, David Jensen, and Davi Costa.

Now which one of them drew the Brazilian flag?

The Man Who Sold The World

Brazilian model David Jensen scored the hottest editorial in the latest issue of L'Officiel Hommes, photographed by Milan Vukmirovic.

The editorial alone is worth the magazine. More scans after the jump.
