Lenny's rise from garage to Brazil's bikini queen

Models wear creations from the Lenny summer collection during Fashion Rio in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Wednesday, April 17, 2013. Known for her use of muted earth tones and the clean, almost architectural lines of her swimwear, Lenny Niemeyer sells some 350,000 pieces a year, mostly at her 26 boutiques throughout the country, but also at multi-mark shops in Britain, France, the Bahamas and in 23 U.S. states.
