Chicas Polar
The name Chicas Polar (lit. 'Polar Girls') refers to the models who have worked as image in the advertising campaign[1] to promote Polar Pilsen beer in Venezuela.
The Empresas Polar campaign was launched for the first time in 2001 and has since then been renewed every year.[2] The billboards alongside the highways in Caracas and other places in the country are very popular,[3] as well as the calendars with pictures shot in landscapes as Choroni Beach or rivers from la Gran Sabana.
The media impact of the Polar Girls has been such that in Latin America and Europe they have been compared to Victoria's Secret Angels. Since the 2006 campaign, new models were called Chicas Pilsen ("Pilsen Girls").[4]
