Guess which model strolled down the Miguel Vieira runway in nothing but a backpack and a golden swimsuit?

The answer is after the jump.

Speedo Sundays: Backstage At Rosa Chá

I invaded the Rosa Chá dressing room last night before the show, and made some videos to share with you guys.

And yes, I also took lots of backstage pictures, which will be up tomorrow along with more videos.

Speedo Sundays

Models Alex Schultz and Saulo Melo at the Sandpiper spring 2009 show this past Thursday in Rio.

Who knew I could edit?

Speedo Sundays

Dado Dolabella was not the only actor hanging out at the beach in Rio this week. Márcio Garcia also sported a red swimsuit at Barra da Tijuca this past Wednesday.

Speedo Sundays: Edilsonmania

I have to admit that even I am a little tired of Edilson at this point, but considering the pictures below were taken by Marcelo Krasilcic when I was in New York back in March, I had to post them.

The pictures above will be featured on the upcoming issue of Junior magazine, which hits newstands on May 20.

More pictures and videos from the edit with Edilson coming later in the week. Make sure to also check out the behind the scenes videos which were previously posted here and here.

Actor Dado Dolabella seems to always be at the beach in Rio. Luckily, so are the paparazzi.

Pictures of him leaving the beach after the jump (in board shorts, but I had to post them).

Terra has finally unveiled its new boy for April, and it is 23-year-old Tiago Botega, from Rio Grande do Sul.

Got some pictures from new label IQONIC last week, and figured I'd give them a shout out here today. My favorite image from the catalog is after the jump.

Speedo Sundays Special Edition

Since I was bombarded with emails about Edilson's video posted last weekend, I decided to make an exception today and post another behind the scenes clip of the spread he shot for Junior #5 in New York last month.

This is the last video I will be posting until the issue of Junior with Edilson Nascimento hits newstands in two months. Expect more of him as soon as the magazine is out.

Speedo Sundays With Edilson

The fourth issue of Brazilian Junior magazine has not even hit newstands, but here is a very exclusive behind the scenes look at the spread I did in New York with model Edilson Nascimento for the fifth issue.

Marcelo Krasilsic shot the story, and it was great to work with him since I am a big fan of his work. Can't wait to be able to show you the entire spread when the issue comes out.

Edilson is with Major Models in New York. Book him asap.

Speedo Sundays: More Dança do Créu

I first mentioned the popular Dança do Créu here back on Wednesday. Now this is what it looks like when performed in speedos:

I worked with Daniel Broitmann last year, and absolutely love the kid. His booker recently emailed me this brand new picture from Miami.

In Brazil, Daniel is represented by 40 Graus.

Speedo Sundays From Ipanema

Here are a couple of pictures of the beach taken by Made In Brazil reader Shawn last weekend during Carnival.

More speedos in Ipanema after the jump.

Speedo Sundays From Jose Ignacio

With Carnival going on in Brazil, I did not end up doing much of a report on my vacation in Punta del Este. I did, however, shoot a video of the boys playing at the beach in Jose Ignacio for your viewing pleasure.

And no, I didn't forget that singer John Mayer had a Borat speedo moment this week. Click here in case you have not seen the pictures yet.

Speedo Sundays

I love swimsuit editorial season. The pictures today come from the latest Instinct magazine, shot by Troy Phillips.

More swimsuit pictures after the jump.

Speedo Sundays With Fernando Sippel

It seems Image magazine got inspired by Numero Homme's Frozen Margarita editorial for its photoshoot with model Fernando Sippel. The result is not quite the same, but one can't deny the kid is super hot.

More images from the edit with Fernando after the jump.

Speedo Sundays

While I was locked inside the Biennial building covering the shows in São Paulo, actor Dado Dolabella was enjoying the beach in Rio.

To prove that there are speedos in Jose Ignacio, I took a paparazzi approach to this Sunday's post.

Just got a copy of the promotional magazine put together by Base to celebrate Art Basel Miami, which happened this month, and I had to post it here for obvious reasons.

Love it. Photography by Steven Giles. One more after the jump.

Speedo Sundays: Santa Speedo Run

The eight annual Santa Speedo Run took place in Boston yesterday. As much as I fear the thought of running in the cold in nothing but a speedo, it does look like fun (and it raises money for charity).

More pictures of Santa Speedo Run at Boston.com.

Brazilian newcomer Josef Lauvers, Ragazzo Models' big bet for the fall shows in January.

Made In Brazil reader Bailey recently returned from a trip to Floripa, and emailed me some pictures thanking me for a few travel tips. I asked him if I could post them here, and he was a good sport about it.
