Sometimes Monica Jac reminds me of early Gi. I saw an ed of Jac in US Vogue with long straight dark hair and it reminded me alot of Gisele's early US Vogue editorials by Meisel.

 

[michelabella]

Yes that's what I meant. Not really looks wise just some sort of quality.

Loved Gisele and Carmen/Gisele Fernanda. thanks again rado.

Gisele Bündchen does not come to Brazil for the Day of the Mothers because, in the truth, it goes to pass the sunday with Benjamin in New York. But it is for a special reason: after years working and defending causes of the environment, top duly goes to be recognized and receives, in this friday, a prize of Medical Harvard School. Deserved, né?

The World's Top-Earning Models

The economic recovery has been good for the world's top-earning models. With consumers again cautiously spending on luxury goods, the 10 top-earning female models on the planet made a combined $112 million in the 12 months to May--up 30% from a total of $86.5 million over the previous year. Most of this gain was enjoyed by the top three: Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum and Kate Moss. The trio have transformed themselves from supermodels to business moguls, stepping off the runway and into the role of designers, entrepreneurs and pop icons.
Bündchen is an unparalleled force within the fashion industry and a brand name herself. Last month she got a shout-out in an unlikely forum: the third-quarter earnings call of Procter & Gamble ( PG - news - people ). Why? P&G's Pantene shampoo sales exploded 40% in Latin America after Gisele started slinging the suds.



"Gisele Bündchen is clearly in a class by herself, and has been for a number of years," says Edward Razek, chief marketing officer of Limited Brands ( LTD - news - people ), who worked with the supermodel during her Victoria's Secret career. "She's an international icon who can also move product--from shampoo to couture." The economic impact of a Bündchen-backed campaign has placed her far ahead of her peers, earning the Brazilian bombshell an estimated $45 million over the past 12 months. Her earnings climbed $20 million over the previous year, thanks to an economic boom in her homeland of Brazil coupled with a 10% surge in the value of the Brazilian real against the dollar.

So crazy. It's funny how she gets older but keeps making more money. And she isn't even working as much as she used to!

 

[allysonmeyer]

she basically branded herself like any other model ever did before. they sure tried, though.

 

[michelabella]

Her brands must be flourishing. Go Gisele.

 

[dreamss]

Forbe's so took the Proctor and Gamble bit I posted here.

Gisele Bündchen

Since leaving Victoria's Secret in 2007, Bündchen has gotten married and become a mother, but she has yet to slow down. Bündchen remains the face of numerous campaigns and endorsement deals throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and Latin America. From H&M to Dior to Versace, she stands behind brands that represent both luxury and affordability. Her selling power is quantifiable: Bündchen's endorsement was credited in Procter & Gamble's most recent quarterly earnings call for helping to increase Pantene's sale in Brazil by 40%. Her most lucrative deals go beyond modeling: She earns a percentage of sales from the Ipanema flipflops bearing her name, which today rival Brazil's well-known Havaianas brand. To top it off, most of Bündchen's paychecks are paid in euros and Brazilian reals, resulting in an increase in earnings as both currencies appreciated against the dollar by double-digit percentages over the last year.
