Aline Nakashima  is a Brazilian model who was discovered at a modeling tryout in Brazil at the age of 17. She made two appearances in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, in 2006 and 2007. Her modeling agency is Marilyn Agency, São Paulo.

Born and raised in Brazil, fresh-faced Aline Nakashima possesses the sort of exotic looks that one generally associates with a jet-setting supermodel. The daughter of a Japanese father and her mother is a Brazilian of Portuguese descent., Aline has always been keenly aware of her beauty -- though it never occurred to her that a career within the modeling industry was a possibility. In fact, one of her childhood dreams centered on an altogether different path: becoming a dance teacher. That all changed after Aline, with the encouragement of her family and friends, decided to attend a modeling tryout when she was 17. She was hired on the spot.

Aline spent the next several years taking on any gig she could find, and eventually began appearing in print ads and commercial spots for such esteemed names as Ralph Lauren, Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus. Her big break came in 2006 when she was selected to appear in the pages of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition; Aline made such an impact on the magazine’s readers that she was asked to pose again the next year.

She has modeled for ALDO, Armani Exchange, DKNY, GAP, Esprit, Kenneth Cole 'Reaction' fragrance, Lycra, MAC, Morgan, Mercedes-Benz, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Playtex, Ralph Lauren, Saks Fifth Avenue, Sephora, Triumph International, and Victoria's Secret.
