Twenty seven half-naked models took over the streets of Brasília yesterday in the afternoon to celebrate the second annual National Underwear Day, organized by fashion website Finíssimo. The event attracted a lot more media attention than last year's, and Made In Brazil has a few exclusive pictures.

More pictures and a Made In Brazil moment after the jump.

The February issue of Vogue Brazil was dedicated in its entirety to Anna Wintour's favorite Brazilian, Caroline Trentini. As much as I hate the cover choice, the editorials are some of the best Vogue Brazil has featured in a long time. But then again, how can you go wrong with Ms. Trentini on set?

Carol was photographed by Gui Paganini, Miro, Paulo Vainer, Jacques Dequeker, and herself. Ms. Trentini was the one responsible for the concept of the pictures below.

Leona Lewis recently debuted her single Bleeding Love in the US, but I have been aching for something new from her since I have been listening to her album Spirit for a while now. The video below for Footprints In The Sand was just released as part of this year’s Sport Relief.

Not my favorite track from the album, but you can't deny the girl can sing.

And in terms of sappy videos which I can't get enough of, make sure to also check out:

I have already said all I needed to say about Mariah's new video for Touch My Body, but now that I see that there is an unicorn involved in it I may have to give her an extra cliché point.

The funk Dança do Créu invented by MC Créu took Brazil (and more specifically Rio) by storm this summer, but it was not until I saw it performed by Cia. Kebra-I that I decided to mention it here.

You gotta watch the whole thing. The best part is when the boys speed it up.

For an instructional video on how to dance the Créu, click here. And just to prove this has become a national craze, I have selected some other videos of hot Brazilian boys performing the choreography, which you can watch after the jump.

Brazilian Aline Weber has had her share of opening shows in São Paulo and Rio, but up until this season her international career hadn't really taken off. Now after pretty strong bookings in New York, she managed to do the impossible: Aline opened Balenciaga yesterday.

Her booker's phone must be ringing non-stop today.

As for Balenciaga, it is amazing that Mr. Ghesquiere took the daring shapes he presented for spring to a complete new realm. And if I may add, I loved it that he opened with some fuck me heels. View the collection at Style.com, and watch it on video here.
