Since the "Girl from Ipanema" days in the 50´s, all the way to glorious Giselle Bundchen, Brazil women have shown their genetic gift for beauty.

Before we review this ranking, we would like to describe a bit of the selection criteria we considered. To join this ranking, Brazilian beauties would necessarily need to have a "Brazilian Look", which normally means dark hair, brown eyes, and sun-tanned skin.

Curves are an essential item for a true Brazilian Brunette, or "morena" in Portuguese. A good set of body proportions goes without saying.

Finally, apart from proving a brief biography of each selected personality, we also explained why the dazzling Brazilian brunette was chosen to be a part of this unique ranking.
