Diego Miguel

A Brazilian model whose athletic build became a signature of fragrance advertising and swimwear imagery, with magazine work extending well beyond the beach.

Diego Miguel is a Brazilian model from Joinville, Santa Catarina. His early international work included Dsquared2’s fashion advertising and Milan runway shows during the early 2010s.

Fragrance advertising became a particularly visible part of that relationship. Diego fronted Dsquared2’s Potion campaign and returned for Potion Blue Cadet in 2013, giving the line a consistent male face across successive launches. His commercial portfolio also includes accessories advertising for GUESS.

His athletic build became central to his work in underwear and swimwear. A profile in Spain’s Men’s Health noted his interest in football and capoeira, while his December 2015 cover for the magazine brought that sporting image to fitness publishing. These bookings made physique a recognizable part of his modeling identity.

Charlie by Matthew Zink became another sustained collaboration. Diego appeared in the label’s resort 2016 imagery and its summer 2016 underwear and swimwear series, returning for the resort 2018 viscose collection. His work for the brand extended across its swimwear and accompanying holiday wardrobe over several seasons.

Magazine assignments have included GQ Brasil and Vogue Italia, as well as a fall-winter 2020 cover of L’Officiel Hommes Italia. In 2026, he appeared on one of the covers of NOT THAT MAG‘s third issue, with a story photographed in New York.
