Evandro Soldati



Evandro Soldati is a Brazilian male model who appears in the music video for Lady Gaga’s single “Alejandro”. He is of Italian ancestry and was born on April 17, 1985 in Ubá, Minas Gerais, Brazil. In 2008, Soldati was the 7th most successful male model in the world by Forbes Magazine.
This shy and somehow isolated Brazilian male model is hailed as the next big thing in fashion world. Soldati is actually considered now as the third male model in the world in terms of popularity and also one of the models with a very promising future ahead. His work so far has been varied and complex, having done catwalk shows for all the big names out there in the fashion industry and photo shoots for some of the most popular brands and products there are.
Soldati was discovered in 2002 when his mother dragged him to an audition for Ford Models in Brazil and was chosen as one of the finalists. From the day Ford picked him out, Evandro's career has been nothing but flourishing: assaulted by offers from prestigious agencies from all over the world, from Paris to Milan and Berlin, and doing things he could only dream of doing until then. According to him in one of his interviews, what he enjoys about modelling job is that he can travel a lot in various places of the world and is done for free. Plus, all these trips were also a brilliant opportunity to get a firmer grip on English and to learn a bit of Italian as well.
He has since shot onto the current fashion scene and at such a young age, he can brag about belting not only recurrent major contracts with Emporio Armani, Louis Vuitton and Dolce & Gabbana but also about doing more promotional campaigns than any other young male model out there. Among these, probably the one he will remember for the rest of his life is the one in which he was teamed with famed football star David Beckham for the two Armani fragrances INSPI(RED), a charitable action meant to fight HIV/AIDS.
Among other list of his campaigns are Calvin Klein Jeans, Valentino, Benetton and Iceberg. With piercing eyes and a signature pout, Evandro worked the runways of DSquared2, Versace, Bottega Venetta and Givenchy, to name a few. This Brazilian hunk is well on his way to becoming an iconic model.
