Career

Gizele Oliveira was born on 7 May 1993 in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo, Brazil and began her modeling career in 2013, when she was recruited by Mc2 Models in Miami. She moved to Miami with little to no money, no knowledge of the English language, and no family. Her mother, who raised her and 3 other children remained in Brazil, working as a school teacher and making minimum wage. The beginning for Gizele was a struggle but her strong will to work hard, listen, and learn from her agents helped her gain a quick grip onto the Miami modeling scene. While in Miami she shot her first ever international cover, Elle Argentina. She started gaining traction in the market, and learned to speak the English language fast through her American boyfriend and daily conversations with her then agency. Gizele caught the beginning of the Instagram era, and learned how to promote herself through travels between London, Seattle, Miami, and Brazil. After establishing herself in the Miami market she moved to NYC in 2014 and signed with IMG Models^[4] and walked for Dolce & Gabbana during her fashion week debut.
