In 2002, Luana made an appearance at Fashion Rio, the biggest fashion event in Latin America, following Sao Paulo Fashion Week, earning some notoriety when she catwalked absolutely naked above the waist, holding her breasts. In 2006, stepping aside from her pin-up image, Luana took a chance in children's theater, producing and starring in the leading role in Antoine de Saint Exupery's O Pequeno Principe. The play was a hit with children.
