Brazilian Model Romulo Pires Expresses His Gratitude

Browsing through the pages of magazines, it is sometimes difficult to imagine that the models in fashion advertisements don’t spend their whole lives in exotic, unreachable locations wearing artistically inventive clothes, and surrounded only by other supermodels.

Even though this might be true some of the time, the romance of a high-fashion advertising campaign, which is crafted by a team of the top creative stylists in the world, makes us believe that what we see in photographs is true 24 hours a day. It is hard for us to consider that the incredible models gracing our fashion magazines, like Brazilian model Romulo Pires, ever lead quiet lives where they have time to reflect on what they have learned so far.

Romulo Pires, who was brought up by a single mother in Brazil, and came into modeling by sheer accident and chance, enjoys his time out of the spotlight, and has often publicly, expressed his gratitude for the people who have helped him achieve his success.

Romulo frequently reminds people of the advice to “Always remember names and the people who have helped you be where you are.” Although this simple advice may seem like common sense to some, it is often not practiced enough once people reach the heights of success that Romulo has.

Since becoming one of the world’s most sought after male models, Romulo has gone on record to thank the scouting agent who found him working as a mechanic and suggested he enter a local modelling contest (Marina Sakamoto), the designer and creative director who helped him secure his first big modelling campaigns, which lead to his first high profile runway jobs (Karl Lagerfeld),

The inspiration behind the modeling agency that hired him in the United States, and who had the foresight and wisdom to open her own modelling business when such an idea seemed unthinkable (Wilhelmina Cooper), and his own mother, Cleopatra, who has always provided him with guidance and strength, and who he considers his “hero, idol, and best friend.”

Romulo Pires has never been shy about giving credit where credit is due, and he has always shown his gratitude for those who have helped him achieve his success.
