Sao Paulo Fashion Week - Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shows her Animale side as she hits the catwalk

Back to the day job: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shows her Animale side as she hits the catwalk for Sao Paulo fashion week
By Daily Mail Reporter

She's more likely to be seen kissing and cuddling boyfriend Jason Statham these days than walking a catwalk, but it seems Rosie Huntington-Whiteley hasn't given up on her day job just yet.

The stunning model, 24, walked the runway during the Sao Paulo Fashion Week in Brazil on Thursday, strutting her stuff in a variety of outfits for the Animale Show.

Rosie flashed her cleavage in a low-cut sheer white camisole with satin detailing and matching trousers as she proved exactly how she has made a name for herself as one of the world's most foremost fashion models.

What she does best: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley took to the catwalk during the Sao Paulo Fashion Week Animale Show on Thursday afternoon

Matching it with a faux fur bolero and some high-heeled sandals, Rosie looked ravishing as she showed off her famous pout and joined the other models on the runway.

Rosie, who recently made her acting debut in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, also wore a lightweight strappy black dress with patterned detailing for her other turn on the catwalk.

The frock was embellished with coloured jewels as Rosie showed what she does best, letting her cheekbones do the talking as she wowed the crowd at the event.

Star attraction: Rosie led the other models on to the runway as part of the Animale Show

In Transformers, Rosie plays Carly Spencer, but her acting ability was met with a mixed reaction.

However, Rosie is obviously keen to continue her modelling career, which she started when she was a teenager after she was discovered by Profile Model Management while seeking internships with several London-based modelling agencies.

Rosie was recently the cover girl for Australia's Cleo magazine and revealed she was shocked when she was handed the movie role.

Cheek bones: The 24-year-old wowed the crowds as she strutted her stuff for the special event

She said: 'At first I was so nervous and I’d be totally lying if I said that I didn’t feel anxious about the whole thing (starring in Transformers: Dark of the Moon]).

'I’d never thought that I was ever going to make a film this huge, and when I was cast, I didn’t even realize what I was casting for.'

But she insists that she has a strong work ethic, adding: 'My mother always said to me as a child, "Life doesn’t hand you opportunity. People don’t hand you great things sitting around on your ass."

'Grasp opportunity in whatever situation you can, and work really hard for the opportunity to keep getting them handed to you.'

Changing clothes: Rosie sported two different outfits during the catwalk show and looked gorgeous in both

The Victoria's Secret stunner was spotted leaving Los Angeles for the South American city earlier this week.

She left LAX wearing trousers and a leather jacket, while she was obviously already getting in the animal spirit with a leopard print scarf.

And she was fresh from partying over the weekend in celebration of the Golden Globes, where she was joined by Statham at The Weinstein Company's After Party at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday.

The stars were joined by other celebrities at the bash, including Meryl Streep, Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Jessica Alba.
