Plot

[edit]

Andréa Vargas (Regina Duarte) is an internationally renowned fashion designer whose life is torn apart when her sister, Júlia, discovers and reveals to her that she is not Atilio and Mercedes' biological daughter, on the day she was going to receive the biggest award of her career. Júlia appears to be a good person, but harbors a great deal of bitterness towards her sister, since in their youth they fell in love with the same boy, Diogo. The boy went his separate way in life, misunderstood by Andréa, but many years later is back, ready to regain his love.

Andrea, the eldest, dedicated herself to her professional life and is a famous stylist, owner of an important and influential brand in the Brazilian fashion world.[5] Despite the large shock to have spent her whole life without knowing her real mother, Andréa has another problem. Her husband, Bruno (José de Abreu), manager of his own company, has a lover, Selma (Alessandra Negrini), and is not at all reliable. The two plan to get hold of all of Ándrea's assets and branding. In reality Selma is most interested in the demoralization of Andréa. Jealous and envious, Selma has a reason: she's her sister, daughter of Isaura, the mother who never met Andréa.[6]

Julia is married to Renato Moreno (Cassio Gabus), a businessman who seems above suspicion. At the beginning of the story, he finds himself involved in a counterfeiting scandal and is arrested. Julia's struggle to prove her husband's innocence drives her back into the profession to support the household.[5] In the struggle to clear him and his entire family is the reporter Chico Maia, with whom Julia gets involved.[7]

There is also the subplot of Ariel. The beauty Virginia, played by Silvia Pfeifer, decides to turn him into a target of harassment. The problem is that Ariel is an openly gay man, who has lived with his partner Tadeu (Otávio Muller) for years.  The two spend cozy evenings watching Barbra Streisand movies.[8]
