• Alessandra Ambrósio walked Prada today in Milan. The show was broadcast live online this afternoon, but I particularly thought the broadcast sucked compared to D&G's earlier today. It was painful to try to watch it in spite of how brilliant the show was.

• The 2nd Annual Brazilian Fashion Awards took place on Wednesday night, and it was such a joke that I felt embarassed to write an entire post about it. As expected, designers Gloria Coelho and Alexandre Herchcovitch took home the awards for Womenswear Designer and Menswear Designer of the Year, Raquel won Best Female Model, and Lenny got the award for Best Swimwear Collection. And while I am totally cool with that, all the other categories must have been either bought or voted by a panel high on crack. Juliana Jabour, a designer who's been in the business for at least six years, won Best New Designer, and left everyone perplexed as to why she was even running for that. Model Carmelita was the New Face of the Year, even though she is as much of a new face as Viviane Orth is, and Michael Camiloto won Best Male Model, a category in which the biggest Brazilian boys of the year such as Max Motta and Marlon Teixeira weren't even nominated. Stylist Flavia Lafer was awarded Best Fashion Blog, possibly for her extraordinary ability to take pictures from Jak & Jil's Blog and repost them with a comment in Portuguese. And for the most shocking moment of the evening, Vogue Brazil won Best Fashion Publication, which I find almost dangerous. I mean, giving an award to Vogue Brazil for the quality of their work is like petting a rottweiler in the head and giving it a treat right after it bites off the arm of a child or something. Just saying.

Caroline Trentini and Michael Camiloto, who worked together in the past in a campaign for Zoomp, teamed up again this season in not just one, but two ad campaigns: Express and Brazilian jeanswear label Forum.

Jesus Luz is not only going to be seen in the Dolce & Gabanna ads come fall. He is also doing the new Pepe Jeans campaign shot by Tom Munro, along with fellow Brazilian Michael Camiloto. Not bad at all for his first season. Another image after the jump.
