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, though she faced difficulties because of her lack of curves and imperfect teeth.[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 Gucci campaigns.[1 ] Caroline also walked the runway for Victoria's Secret along with fellow Brazilian models Gisele Bündchen, Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrósio. Ribeiro also became a Revlon spokesmodel. She has appeared on the covers of Vogue and Harper's Bazaar.
She married fellow Brazilian Paulo Rego, also a model, and they have one child together, Felipe.[3]
