Biography
About Alana Soares
Alana Soares was a prominent adult model and centerfold in the early 1980s, best known for her appearances in Playboy. Born on February 21, 1964, in Redondo Beach, California, she grew up in a family with a rich cultural mix: her father was of Hawaiian-Japanese descent and her mother had Spanish-Irish roots. This unique heritage gave her a distinctive look that set her apart in the modeling world. She started her career around the age of 19, and although her active years were brief, lasting only from 1983 to 1984, she made a significant impact during that short time.
Alana's rise to fame came when she was featured as Playboy's Playmate of the Month for the USA edition in March 1983. This achievement was just the beginning. She went on to appear in several international editions of Playboy: Germany in February 1984, Italy in August 1983, Japan in April 1983, Mexico in March 1983, and Spain in June 1983. These international appearances helped solidify her status as a sought-after model of the era. Her petite frame of 5'2", slim build, and natural 32DD bust made her a standout, and her hazel eyes and brown hair completed her striking appearance.
One of the most memorable moments of her career was collaborating with her sister, Leilani Soares, an actress. They posed together for a pictorial titled "Playmate Sisters" in the April 1985 issue of Playboy. This feature was groundbreaking at the time, showcasing the two sisters in a sensual and artistic way, and it remains a cherished piece of Playboy history. During her career, Alana also posed for five covers and five photosets, further demonstrating her popularity.
After her time as a model, Alana gradually moved away from the public eye. By the late 1980s, she had stepped back from her role as a Playmate, and since then, there have been no public updates on her career or personal life. She has kept her personal life private, with no known information about her marital status, children, or relationships. Her sister Leilani continued to work in acting, but Alana chose a quieter path. Despite her retirement, Alana remains a beloved figure among Playboy enthusiasts, remembered for her contributions to the magazine's golden era of the 1980s. Today, she is still celebrated for her beauty and the iconic sister pictorial, which fans continue to appreciate.
