Adriana Lima was 42 years old when the world decided to comment on her face.
It was 2023, and she had just had her third child. On social media, people began comparing her to the Adriana from the Victoria’s Secret runways, the one from the years without wrinkles or dark circles, and many users showed no mercy: they said she looked “unrecognizable”. She did not angrily defend herself. She responded with a phrase that summed up her entire life: “The tired face of the mother of a teenage girl, two preteens, a one-year-old boy who is learning to walk, and three dogs. Thank you for your concern”.
Three years passed. And at the Closing Party of Madrid Fashion Week, at 45 years old, Adriana appeared again, now with an athletic figure that brought back to many the exact memory of her years as an angel. No one mentioned the fatigue this time. All that remained was proof that a body can tell many different stories, and all of them deserve respect.
