Amir Slama is a Brazilian fashion designer.[1][2] He was the designer, stylist and owner of the Brazilian beach fashion brand Rosa Chá. He now runs a brand under his name, Amir Slama, with stores in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

Amir's father came to Brazil when he was a little over 20 years old to work in the textile business as a trade representative on the 25 de Março street (in the Bom Retiro neighborhood); he later set up his own factory. Before coming to Brazil, his father lived for a few years in Israel, where he met his wife. Amir recalls that his parents spoke in Hebrew between themselves.

Amir was a history professor before establishing his career in the fashion industry; with the help of his wife, he started Rosa Cha. His talent has become known throughout the fashion community with Rosa Cha constantly being editorialized by Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, W Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Cosmopolitan, and many more.[3]

He became friends with supermodel Naomi Campbell after she visited his shop in São Paulo; Campbell has modeled his collections on the runway ever since.[4]
