Marlon Teixeira - the smart Brazilian stars in the Emporio Armani S/S 2013 commercial

Marlon Teixeira has been one of the favourite faces of the house of ARMANI for quite sometime now. So it comes as no surprise then, that the smart Brazilian can also be seen in action in the Spring/Summer 2013 campaign.

According to our sources, commercial was shot in Ostuni, in the Brindisi province of Apulia. Very Italian, with plenty of nature and soft lighting on flawless skin.

Marlon’s interesting look can probably be linked to his ancestry: he is half Portuguese, ¼ Brazilian native and ¼ Japanese. Whatever the reason - L'Officiel Hommes, Essential Homme, Fiasco, Made in Brazil, Client, Hercules, GQ, Vogue Espana, V, Elle, W Magazine with Ginnifer Goodwin or Vanity Fair with Shakira .... we aren’t the only ones to appreciate his appearance.

Those of you that feel he looks familiar: in 2011 he and Marloes Horst from Holland were the faces of the Diesel Fuel for Life Denim Collection fragrance campaign photographed by Terry Richardson (video directed by Melina Matsoukas).
