Photo Sets
Though the Feres sisters do not appear nude in their current photo shoots, both the VIP and Papparazzo photographs show the twins in bikinis in bedrooms or on the beach. In some of Bia's and Branca's photos, the sisters are even shown touching each other or spraying each other with a hose. These shots have led some critics to label the Feres sisters as controversial.4
