Sara Sampaio Career
Sara Sampaio gained the attention of numerous modelling agencies when she was 15 years old. However, when she was 16, she was not allowed to compete in modelling competitions. In 2007, she participated and won a hair modelling contest called 'Cabelos Pantene' in Portugal. After the race, she had the opportunity to appear in a company in Portugal. Subsequently, she signed a deal with the Agency. Her parents, however, decided that she had to finish high school before she could dream about becoming a professional model.

In the summer of that year, she signed a deal with Calzedonia Mar to be the face of their worldwide advertisement campaign. It was extended to 2015.

She was also walking on the runway in the Armani Fall / Winter Campaign on 11/12. In 2013, she was featured in the very first edition of 'Portuguese GQ,' in which she was hailed as the 'eighth wonder of the world.' She and the Hungarian supermodel Barbara Calvin collaborated together for the 2013 Rosa Cha campaign. In 2015, Maxim celebrated the 20th anniversary of Victoria's Secret by releasing the list of 'The 20 Most Beautiful Angels of All Time.' Sampaio was included in the list alongside Adriana Lima, Elsa Hosk, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bündchen, Miranda Kerr and Tyra Banks. 2016 was a busy year for Sampaio as she appeared on the runway for Elie Saab, Jean Paul Gaultier, Balmain, Mugler, Emanuel Ungaro, Giambattista Valli, Salvation, Miu Miu, Tommy Hilfiger, Torhy Burch, Jeremy Scott, Marc Jacobs, Alberta Ferretti, Francesco Scognamiglio, Philipp Plein, Dolce & Gabbana, and Missoni to name a few. In 2017, she walked along the ramp to Tommy Hilfiger, Redemption, Elie Saab, Mugler, Peter Dundas, Prabal Gurung, Zadig & Voltaire, tory Burch and many other brands. She was featured on the 'Maxim' cover in May 2016. This was her first appearance on the cover of any famous American magazine. She became the new face of the Israeli brand Moroccanoil in 2016.

Sara is reportedly dating entrepreneur Oliver Ripley. In 2015, reports of the potential relationship between the two first emerged. They've been dating since 2017, however. Oliver is the founder and CEO of Black Ocean Group, a tech company that invests in technology start-ups, as well as Habitas, a chain of hotels and restaurants. In addition, there are reports that Sara has been dating Harry Styles from June 2015 to August 2015. Sampaio strongly believes in the idea that modelling is a means of creative expression and that nudity is empowering. However, in October 2017, she announced in an Instagram post that the French publication 'Lui Magazine' had forced her to pose naked. And then, despite the “no nudity” clause of her contract, she took her topless pictures and accused them of sexual harassment. She feels that people should be comfortable in their own skin, regardless of their shape or size. As a result, she has clear feelings about skinny shaming. During the Instagram Q&A with her fans in July 2018, Sampaio announced that she was suffering from trichotillomania.
