A Model Watched for What She Wears
A fashion celebrity is a person with celebrity status who is often watched and judged for what they wear — and few careers fit that definition more directly than a working model's. Lima's path ran from a Brazilian modelling competition at 15 to Elite Model Management in New York City, then to the Victoria's Secret runway as an Angel from 2000 and to beauty work as a Maybelline spokesmodel from 2003 to 2009. Each of those roles is visual by nature: runway shows, cosmetics campaigns and the Guess? campaigns credited with raising her profile all put clothing, makeup and styling at the center of the work, which is why her name became one of the most followed in fashion coverage.
