Alessandra Ambrosio is one of several Brazilian models that became known in the late 1990s along with Gisele Bündchen, Adriana Lima and Ambrosio's best friend Ana Beatriz Barros. Born in Erechim, a small town in southern Brazil, Ambrosio enrolled in a modeling class as a teen. She subsequently entered the Elite modeling agency's 1996 "Look of the Year" modeling competition. Though she did not win, one year later she was offered an Elite modeling contract.
Her first big modeling job was the cover of the Brazilian Marie Claire magazine, and then Allesandra followed with other "editorial" work. It was not long after that the Guess? company signed Ambrosio for their fall 2000 campaign. Her print career began as a Guess? model and continued with Revlon and Victoria's Secret. Ambrosio modeled on the Victoria's Secret runway for the first time in 2000, and she continued to be a participant in the subsequent shows. In 2004 Ambrosio was selected as the first spokesmodel for Victoria's Secret Pink line.
