Carmen Miranda



She is one my fashion icons. Her music is absolutely gorgeous. I have not yet seen her movies, sadly. There is a documentary about her called "Carmen Miranda: Bananas Are My Business" and here's an impressive piece of trivia, she practically died on stage, she was found dead of a heart attack in her dressing room, where she had been removing her make-up. 

Priceless quote:

"Look at me and tell me if I don't have Brazil in every curve of my body."

If you want to know more......
