2013 Pirelli Calendar by American photojournalist Steve McCurry

The 2013 Pirelli calendar was shot entirely in Rio by celebrated American photojournalist Steve McCurry. The unusual/ 'artsy' Calendar features amazing Brazilian icons,as the pregnant model Adriana Lima, Isabeli Fontana, 62-year-old actress Sônia Braga and Marisa Monte. Also, some of the world's most beautiful women, including Karlie Kloss, Petra Nemcova,Hanaa Ben Abdesslem, Summer Rayne Oakes & Liya Kebede 

All of the eleven girls were selected by them because of their extensive charity work and theres no nudity related to the 2013 calendar. Not One Supermodel Is Naked in it #shocking surprise for most people. "It's not about their bodies. Or their sexuality," McCurry said in a statement. "These models are purposeful and idealistic people." 

The images are gorgeous and and impeccable & a friend of bla's jazmin Castillo was a producer on the project and sent this great making of video to us.
