Caroline Ribeiro (b. September 20, 1979 in Belém, Pará, Brazil) is a Brazilian model. As a teenager, Ribeiro moved to São Paulo to begin modeling.[1] She states of her own looks, "I think my face is different, it's exotic - not like normal beauty. I don't have what you would call perfect beauty... With a face like mine I can play around".[2]
Ribeiro's modeling career improved after she signed with the Marilyn Agency in Paris in 1999. She became the "favorite model" of Tom Ford and appeared prominently in multiple Gucci campaigns.[1] She was also featured in campaigns for Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Oscar de la Renta, Valentino, and Yves Saint Laurent.[3] Caroline also walked the runway for Victoria's Secret along with fellow Brazilian models Gisele Bündchen, Adriana Lima, Fernanda Tavares, and Alessandra Ambrósio. Ribeiro also became a Revlon spokesmodel. She has appeared on the covers of Vogue Italia, French Vogue, and Harper's Bazaar.
She married fellow Brazilian Paulo Rego, also a model, and they have one child together, Felipe.
