> **Description:**
Welcome to the captivating Tropicália fashion show by renowned designer Victor Dzenk at the 20th edition of Fashion Business. This extraordinary event showcases the perfect harmony between fashion and music, as artist Preta Gil mesmerizes the audience with her rendition of “Alegria Alegria” – walking against the Caetano Veloso winds, truly embodying the concept behind the new collection.

Set against the backdrop of the vibrant Rocinha Favela, approximately twenty models, including two from the local community, gracefully graced the runway at the community’s sports complex. For these two young talents, born and raised in the community, the Wednesday, May 23rd fashion show represents a remarkable opportunity.

>*”It’s not about where you come from, but rather how you excel in your craft,”* declares 19-year-old Rafaella Lemos. *”She is beautiful. Today, I am opening a gateway to the immense universe that lies ahead for her,”* states the visionary designer.

For 22-year-old model Chessman Medeiros, being born in Rocinha has been a significant advantage in his career. *”I have never experienced prejudice. In fact, being a model from Rocinha has opened many doors for me,”* shares the young man, who has already scheduled trips to showcase his talent in Asia and Europe, while being pre-selected for a fashion show in New York.

According to Victor, Rocinha epitomizes transgression, which is why he decided to involve the community in order to create an authentic experience. *”My intention was for the community to feel engaged, and not merely be the backdrop of this event. And here, I have learned a valuable lesson. They have the drive to succeed, to make it in a world where such things are becoming scarce,”* affirms the esteemed designer.

In addition to the stunning models, Victor also enlisted the help of three makeup artists, two hairstylists, three receptionists, and an assistant to ensure the seamless production of the fashion show. *”I love what I do and seize every opportunity. Being here is a dream come true,”* explains 23-year-old makeup artist Rilson Farias, who played a key role in creating the models’ flawless looks.

Rafaella and other girls from the community are represented by an agency within the community itself. *”20 years ago, when I started, everything was much more challenging. I’m not interested in discovering the next Gisele Bündchen, but rather in helping individuals become better versions of themselves,”* emphasizes José Luiz Summer, owner of Dreams Model’s agency.

Com o tema Tropicália, o desfile do estilista Victor Dzenk na 20ª edição do Fashion Business contou com a participação de Preta Gil cantando Alegria Alegria, – caminhando contra o vento de Caetano tema conceito da nova coleção e um cenário diferente. Tendo como pano de fundo a Favela da Rocinha, cerca de vinte modelos, entre eles dois da própria comunidade, entraram na passarela do complexo esportivo da comunidade. Para os dois jovens, nascidos e criados na comunidade, o desfile de quarta-feira 23/mai representa uma grande oportunidade.
“A questão não é onde você mora, mas a forma como você realiza o seu trabalho”, afirma Rafaella Lemos, 19 anos. “Ela é linda. Hoje eu estou abrindo uma portinha para um universo enorme que ela tem pela frente”, diz o estilista.
Para o modelo Chessman Medeiros, 22 anos, ter nascido na Rocinha foi um diferencial na profissão. “Nunca sofri preconceito. Na realidade, ser um modelo vindo da Rocinha me abriu muitas portas”, diz o rapaz, que tem viagem marcada esse ano para desfiles na Ásia e na Europa e já está pré-selecionado para um desfile em Nova York.
Segundo Victor, a Rocinha traduz a transgressão e, por isso, o estilista resolveu envolver a comunidade para o trabalho ficar genuíno . “Minha intenção foi que a comunidade se sentisse participativa e não apenas o cenário desse evento. E aqui eu aprendi uma lição. Eles têm vontade de vencer, de chegar lá, coisas cada vez mais escassas no mundo da moda”, afirmou o estilista.
Além dos modelos, Victor convidou três maquiadores, dois cabeleireiros, três recepcionistas e uma assistente para ajudar na produção do desfile. “Amo o que eu faço e agarro as oportunidades. Estar aqui é um sonho realizado”, explica o maquiador Rilson Farias, 23 anos, que foi um dos responsáveis pela maquiagem dos modelos.
Rafaella e outras meninas da comunidade são de uma agência da própria comunidade. “Há 20 anos, quando comecei, era tudo muito mais difícil. Não estou interessado em descobrir nenhuma Gisele Bündchen, mas em que saiam daqui pessoas melhores”, afirma José Luiz Summer, dono da agência Dreams Model’sVictor Dzenk
