Brazilfoundation Commemorates Its 10Th Gala in New York City Contacts: Pedro Henrique França, [email protected], Nathalia Lavigne, [email protected] New York, August 2012 BrazilFoundation Commemorates its 10th Gala in New York City To celebrate nearly a decade-long tradition of the event, the foundation examines the past and looks toward the future during a dinner benefit on September 19th at the American Museum of Natural History. New York – It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the tenth edition of the BrazilFoundation Gala, that will be on September 19th at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Almost ten years after the first Annual Gala in 2003, we have surpassed 7 thousand supporters, who are responsible for raising close to $18 million dollars and supporting more than 300 social initiatives in 26 Brazilian states. “There were many challenges BrazilFoundation faced in opening new avenues to philanthropy. The most important was to earn the confidence of the individuals, companies, and civil society organizations that transform into volunteers, donors, and partnerships. There is an immense pride in seeing the foundation name become known for its work that translates into support for the social entrepreneurs spread throughout various Brazilian states”, comments the President and Founder Leona Forman. To mark the special date, BrazilFoundation will honor one of the visionaries of the event with Leona: psychologist Malu Millerman. A native of São Paulo, she has lived in New York since 1993, when her husband Sergio Millerman received a job offer to live in the city. “It has been a pleasure to be a part of the great success that the Gala has reached and to further the great mission of supporting social projects in Brazil”, she says. Other honorees during the event will include André Brandão, President of HSBC Brasil for his work on Instituto HSBC Solidariedade, that finances socio-environmental projects; and Manuel de Andrade, founder of Programa de Educação em Células Cooperativas (PRECE), created to help prepare youth to enter college. The organization has already sent more than 500 youth from Ceará to institutes of higher education and has received support from BrazilFoundation since 2003. Who will also be present to receive a special honor and International Philanthropy Award is the business man Arpad A. Busson. Born in France and rooted in England, he is the Founder and President of ARK (Absolute Return for Kids), a philanthropic association that finances projects to help children in miserable situations or who are victims of abuse in Eastern Europe, South Africa and Great Britain. Busson is also married to the Uma Thurman. The model Luciana Curtis and Luigi Tadini jointly serve as Masters of Ceremony. The two also have an important role within the foundation – Luciana was one of the first models in New York to support the Gala, while Tadini, Commercial Director of Paper Magazine, helped organize the very first Gala Miami, this year, as well as the After Party of the two previous Galas in New York. Besides the tables and invitations, BrazilFoundation will receive the support and donations of the guests present to leverage the total amount to be raised. And, as expected in benefit events, there will be an auction of donated items from partners that will further increase the donation value raised and will be distributed between the institutions to be selected and analyzed by the foundation selection committee. Along with the other confirmed auction items is jewelry from Brazilian designer Jack Vartanian, designed exclusively for the event, and artwork from the Mark Engel and Brendan Murphy. Responsible for the event’s musical arrangements, Michaelangelo L’Acqua, who has worked with Tom Ford and the W Hotel group, will perform for the guests the best current international music. Along with him, the similarly Rob Garza, of Thievery Corporation, Nikko Gibler and Julio Mario Santo Domingo promise to enliven the after- party, to be held in the halls of the American Museum of Natural History.

    In the middle of nowhere IT: Buongiorno! Come state? Avete passato bene il weekend prolungato? Io sono rimasta a casa, ho fatto l’albero e ho decorato l’esterno della casa. Domenica sono andata con Piero a vedere un bosco in Slovenia, di solito la gente normale passa le domeniche in famiglia o va in giro, io, invece, le passo nei boschi Eravamo in un posto che è tagliato fuori dal mondo e dove non c’era il guardrail…solo Piero è capace di trovare posti così sperduti e dimenticati?? All’inizio ho pensato di non pubblicare queste foto, perchè non sono venute proprio benissimo, le abbiamo fatte velocemente, perché fuori erano quasi 0 gradi. Spero che comunque vi piacciano. Vi auguro buon mercoledi! EN: Hello! How are you? I have spent the weekend at home, I did the tree and I decorated outside the home. On Sunday I went with Piero to see a forest in Slovenia, the usual, normal people pass Sunday in family or around, instead I pass Sunday in the forests We were in a place that is cut outside the world and where not even a guardrail, only Piero is capable of to find places so astray and forgotten ?? At the beginning I thought about not to publish these photos, because there are not the best, we have done them quickly, and outside were almost 0 degrees. I hope that however you like it. I wish you good Wednesday! SI: Zivijo! Kako ste? Jaz sem vikend prezivela doma, sem okrasila drevo in zunanjost hise. V nedeljo pa sva si sla s Pierotom ogledati en gozd v Slovenijo, obicajno normalni ljudje prezivijo nedelje v krogu druzine ali odzunaj, jaz pa jih prezivljam v gozdovih Sla sva si ogledat en gozd, odrezan od sveta, kjer ni niti obcestne ograje, samo Piero je zmozen dobiti kraje, ki so pozabljeni in odrezani od sveta?? Na zacetku sem mislila, da ne objavim teh fotografij, ker niso prov najboljse, smo jih na hitro naredili, ker je bilo odzunaj okrog 0 stopinj.

  • Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Heads to London
    ET's Kevin Frazier Flies With the Angels as Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Heads to London 4:09 PM PST, December 01, 2014 Forty-seven Victoria's Secret Angels headed to London for the VS Fashion Show and ET's Kevin Frazier flew in style with the models. Angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Adriana Lima, both 33, will be hanging up their wings this year, and we were there for Adriana's lingerie fitting in New York before heading across the pond. "The outfit itself is like a corset dress with details for lace and leather -- like shiny leather and it's something that I love," said Adriana. Adriana's outfit is just one of 81 that viewers will see on the runway for the Dec. 2 show. The event will also include a return performance by Taylor Swift with Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran and Hozier also on the bill. After the fitting it was on to the U.K. via a special Victoria's Secrret flight. "Everywhere you turn there are models," Kevin observed. "That's just how it works on this flight." Before boarding, Kevin and the Angels took plenty of selfies forr the old scrapbook. "Usually I see you holding a microphone," Adriana told Kevin. "This is the first time I've seen you holding a camera." Once on the plane, Kevin was tucked in by Alessandra and Adriana. "You all need to take a nap," Alessandra advised before the six-hour flight. "Here you go," Alessandra said, placing a blindfold over Kevin's eyes. The tricky part came when they touched down in London and had to get 47 models and their entourage through customs.

  • Bonequinhas De Luxo: Um Olhar Sobre a Tirania E O Prazer Nas Revistas De Moda
    UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE MINAS GERAIS CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA BELO HORIZONTE 2010 CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA Trabalho apresentado ao Programa de Pós‐ Graduação em Comunicação Social da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais como requisito parcial para a obtenção do título de doutor em Comunicação Social. Orientador: Prof. Dr. Paulo Bernardo Vaz BELO HORIZONTE 2010 Resumo O objetivo desta tese é analisar de que forma a moda, por meio da mídia revista, enforma os corpos e subjetividades femininos. No entanto, discute‐se também um paradoxo instaurado na relação entre os periódicos impressos e fenômeno da moda: o prazer estético gerado por textos verbo‐visuais com pretensões de incitar o consumo. Dessa forma, entende‐se que há um movimento que tenta formatar as possíveis leitoras enquanto mulheres, naquilo que são e aparentam, mas ao mesmo tempo é entregue a elas objetos que primam por levá‐las a mundos de sonho e deixá‐las mergulhar em inúmeras possibilidades que em nada se assemelham à dureza do cotidiano. Para aprofundar nesse paradoxo, foi realizada uma pesquisa que buscou compreender a moda enquanto comunicação, suas relações com a estetização do corpo e do cotidiano e os usos que os sujeitos fazem de sua indumentária. Buscou‐se também compreender as dinâmicas de instauração do jornalismo feminino, do qual o de moda torna‐se sinônimo, para que fosse elucidada a emergência e importância das imagens na tarefa de tornar a moda pública e consolidá‐la tal qual a conhecemos.
