Written by , Posted in ART, FASHION, LIFESTYLE

The 12th edition of the Brazil Foundation Gala took place at Lincoln Center, at the David Koch Theatre.

The night was all about celebrating women, and the Gala paid homage to singer Bebel Gilberto by presenting her with the Global Brazilian Award for being an international spokesperson for Brazilian culture. Maria de Lourdes Brás (Casa de Santa Ana), Anália Timbó (Associação Vidança), and Brigitte Louchez (Barraca da Amizade) were also recognized for creating impactful social projects in Brazil that are linked to the Brazil Foundation.

Among the attendees were Nicky Hilton, Carlos Souza, Ahn Duong, Derek Blasberg, Lorenzo Martone, Felipe Diniz, Cameron Winklevoss, Eduardo Vergueiro Leite, Brazilian jewelry designers Carla Amorim and Ana Khouri, actresses Morena Baccarin and Morgan Saylor, and Brazilian models Aline Weber, Ana Beatriz Barros, Lais Ribeiro, Renata Kuerten, Luciana Curtis, and Marcelle Bittar.

My picks for the top 3 best-dressed of the night are Brazilian model Ana Beatriz Barros in Chanel, Nicky Hilton, and Jessica Joffe in Valentino. The dinner ended with a pocket show by Baby do Brasil, with the after-party taking place at TAO Downtown.

Entre os presentes estavam: Nicky Hilton, Carlos Souza, Ahn Duong, Derek Blasberg, Lorenzo Martone, Felipe Diniz, Cameron Winklevoss, Eduardo Vergueiro Leite, as designers de jóias Carla Amorim e Ana Khouri, as atrizes Morena Baccarin and Morgan Saylor, as modelos Aline Weber, Ana Beatriz Barros, Lais Ribeiro, Renata Kuerten, Luciana Curtis e Marcelle Bittar.

As mais bem vestidas da noite foram, se dúvidas, a modelo Ana Beatriz Barros de Chanel, Nicky Hilton e Jessica Joffe em dois belíssimos vestidos Valentino. O jantar terminou com um pocket show de Baby do Brasil e o after party ocorreu no TAO Downtown.
