Hilda Dias Pimentel Bio
Hilda Dias Pimentel is a Brazilian glamour and fashion model. She was born on March 8, 1992, in Vitoria, Brazil, and has also been credited as Hilda Pimental. Playboy named her its October 2019 Playmate at 27. Her appearance came during Playboy's contemporary era of international and digital publishing.
Pimentel has natural breasts, brown eyes and black hair. Her measurements are 33-25-37.
Hilda Dias Pimentel entered modeling at 16 after international scouts visited her city and her family encouraged her to participate in the selection process. After advancing through two rounds, she traveled to São Paulo with her mother, signed a contract and, within a matter of months, was working in Milan. The sudden independence required her to learn practical skills such as navigating unfamiliar cities, cooking for herself and managing money.
International assignments soon became the structure of Pimentel’s career. In December 2012, Julian Niznik photographed her for Superior Magazine’s “Hilda” editorial, followed in 2013 by work connected with a Lancôme autumn/winter campaign and the September cover of L’Officiel Morocco. Elle South Africa continued that editorial run in January 2014, featuring her in its “Shape Shifter” fashion story.
Years of modeling took Pimentel through Europe, Asia and South Africa before she established a permanent base in New York City. After spending so much time traveling with her luggage, she reached a point when having a home of her own became important. By her Playboy interview, she had accumulated roughly twelve years in the industry, spanning commercial beauty campaigns, fashion editorials and international magazine work.
Ali Mitton photographed Pimentel’s Playboy pictorial with a softer, sunlit approach that drew naturally on her experience in beauty and fashion photography. The session also connected with a change in how she viewed her body. Pimentel acknowledged that body image remained a daily challenge and said nude modeling had helped her release some of the flaws she perceived in herself and approach her work with greater confidence.
That perspective was informed by experiences extending back to childhood, including a Catholic upbringing and years studying ballet. Pimentel used her Playboy interview to encourage women to rely less on outside approval and place greater value on their own judgment. Her professional record, meanwhile, retained its international range, from the early Superior Magazine editorial to L’Officiel Morocco, Elle South Africa and the beauty work that accompanied those fashion assignments.
