Andrea Maria Almeida do Livramento has painted an inspiring journey, where each of her catwalk steps carries a story of determination, faith, and the desire to radiate beauty from within. From the stages of Spain and Bali to her role as a Global Ambassador for GSFW 2025, Andrea has turned dreams into reality, asserting her strength with grace and pride.
Cabo Verde heritage within Andrea’s heart
Andrea carries within her the resilience and free-spirited beauty of Cabo Verde, where stories of courage and love for life originate. Born in Spain, she grew up surrounded by the love of her parents — people who left their homeland to sow hope on a new land, raising her with values of gratitude, appreciation, and an unyielding desire to rise.
The childhood memories of gentle sunny afternoons, stories told by the warm glow of a lamp, and her mother’s tender gaze nurtured Andrea into a woman full of love and strength. She brings these values with her onto the runway, turning each step into a gentle message of determination and the spirit of Cabo Verde in the contemporary fashion world.
Beauty of consistency
With a height of 1.71m and a radiant presence, Andrea has marked over 15 years in the fashion industry with steady steps and a determined gaze. She has graced major runways, appeared on numerous magazine covers, placed in the Top 6 of Miss Universe Alicante 2010, won the title of Best Model of the Valencian Community 2014, and was crowned Miss Global Cabo Verde 2022 — bringing her homeland into the Miss Global Top 25 for the first time in Bali.
Andrea also appeared in the film The Counselor alongside Brad Pitt, Penélope Cruz, Javier Bardem, and Cameron Diaz, featured in AURYN’s music video Breathe Your Fire, and walked for many renowned Spanish designers. These milestones have shaped an inspiring career journey, affirming her self-worth through unwavering spirit, talent, and gratitude for every opportunity she has received.
Fashion — a language of the soul
Andrea believes that fashion is a way for people to express their freedom and affirm their self-worth — a language that connects the soul with the world. Each outfit is not just something to wear, but a reflection of the wearer’s story, personality, and spirit. For Andrea, art is not only about outer beauty, but also about emotion, resonance, and the desire to spread positive values.
She aspires to develop personal projects that bear her unique imprint, where beauty is intertwined with freedom, strength, and compassion. Andrea is building the image of an independent, courageous woman who is ready to share her story to inspire other women to believe in their own light, fully embrace their passions, and move forward with a resilient heart.

This is a milestone in her path, affirming her strength as a bridge to bring positive values to the world while inspiring creativity and a sustainable lifestyle among young people globally.
Through this role, Andrea hopes to share inspiring stories and create spaces where everyone can appreciate the beauty of diversity and the spirit of creativity. For Andrea, every project she takes part in is an opportunity to spread love, connect communities, and affirm the value of courage, confidence, and sincerity.
