Born in the Brazilian countryside, and nearly six feet tall by the age of 14,
Gisele Bündchen
grew from humble roots into one of the most successful supermodels in the world. This book celebrates her 20-year milestone in the industry with a unique and spectacular collection of
jaw-dropping glamour and intimate, personal insights.
Gisele was just 18 when she made her breakthrough in the S/S 1998 ready-to-wear “Rain” show of Alexander McQueen, who chose
“The Body”
thanks to her ability to walk in towering heels on a slippery runway. The same year, Gisele secured her first British
Vogue
cover, and swiftly became the
most in-demand cover girl of her generation
. The following year, she was chosen for the cover of American
, shot by Steven Meisel, and lauded as
“the return of the sexy model”
with her bronzed, athletic beauty defying late-’90s grunge. Since then, Gisele has appeared on
more than 1,000 covers
around the globe, in approximately
450 fashion shows
, and in multinational campaigns for the biggest fashion and beauty brands.
With
more than 300 photographs
, this
book
is curated and art directed by Giovanni Bianco
. From Gisele’s legendary nude portrait by Irving Penn, chosen as the book’s cover, to iconic shots from such industry luminaries as
Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Peter Lindbergh, David LaChapelle, Juergen Teller, Inez & Vinoodh, Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott
, and
Corinne Day
, it is a unique artistic presentation of the most famous Brazilian export together with Pelé and Senna and the highest-earning model in the world. The breathtaking image collection is accompanied by an
introduction by Steven Meisel and tributes from Gisele’s closest friends, family, and fashion leaders,
who shed light on how and why she has become one of the greatest models of all time.
Gisele is donating all her proceeds from the book to charity.
