Absolutely love the underwater shots. Guess Raquel's contract with Gucci explains why she hasn't walked any other show this season.

The rumors were true: Gisele closed the Balenciaga spring 2011 show in Paris today. I am keeping my fingers crossed that she will also star in the spring ad campaign. View the complete collection here, and watch the show here. Amazing as usual.
Make sure to read Eric Wilson's Q&A with Carine Roitfeld On The Runway, and to get a copy of the 90th anniversary issue of Vogue Paris.
Is a runway show really necessary?
Meet newcomer Lucas Cattani Soldati.
Watch the video of the Gucci fall 2010 collection starring Raquel Zimmermann. It is certainly not as cool as last fall's video, but I will seriously watch anything with Raquel in it. She is also on the cover of the new Numéro Tokyo btw.

The new issue of Russh magazine features pictures from Juergen Teller's latest book Zimmermann, which I seriously should have ordered already. View more images after the jump.

The new issue of ffw Mag! featuring all the Brazilian spring 2011 collections is already on newsstands, with newcomer Nathalia Oliveira on the cover. I am going to pick up a copy over the weekend and scan some of my favorite pictures to post next week.
Debora Müller was the Brazilian girl with most bookings in London this season, walking eleven shows and scoring three exits at Burberry.
In case you missed the live broadcast yesterday, here is a video of the genius Prada spring 2011 show.
Flipped through the latest 10 Men featuring Tony Ward this week, and it is brilliantly edited. For pictures of the story photographed by Marcelo Krasilcic for the issue, visit his blog.
Watch the new Love, Chloé commercial with Raquel.
Rio's Buati party is taking over Lionsclub in São Paulo tonight.
The Week São Paulo is celebrating its sixth year in business this weekend with three huge parties.
It is finally confirmed: Topshop will be opening two stores in São Paulo in 2011. Topshop will open in the first semester, and Topshop/ Topman will open in the second semester. I wonder if the prices will be the same in Reais or if the merchandise will be ridiculously expensive as everything else is in Brazil.
Gisele looked stunning in a backless Calvin Klein number last night at The Brazil Foundation's 8th Annual Gala Benefit. Also at the event at the Met were Pedro Andrade, Lorenzo Martone, Anne Hathaway, Cecilia Dean, Vik Muniz, and Fernanda Motta. The after party was at the Boom Boom Room. Did any of you go and took pictures?

Raquel had not just one, but three exits (including the opening look) at the Gucci spring 2011 show yesterday in Milan. If that wasn't reason enough to love Frida Giannini this season, she also cast three other fabulous Brazilians girls for the show, and along with Marc Jacobs in New York, made sure that the 70's will definitely be back come next spring.
