Gisele Bündchen took her final fashion show walk Wednesday night at the Colcci show during Sao Paulo Fashion Week. And while we know she’s not done modeling forever (she has a lot of “other projects” in the works), we don’t know what we’ll miss more about her runway days: the perfect hair flips, hip-popped poses, sexy spins or those Victoria’s Secret Angle kisses she’s perfected over her 20-year career. So on this day of runway mourning, we collected our favorite GIFs to honor Bündchen’s legendary stride.
HIGH-FASHION MOMENTS
When you get your big break with mascara running down your face and soaking wet hair, there’s no question you’re destined for greatness. After Alexander McQueen’s 1998 “Rain” show, Lee dubbed her “the body” and the rest is, well, history (as you can see below).
Ranking in as one of our favorite millennial looks: Bündchen in a tube top and briefs (and no, this wasn’t for Victoria’s Secret, just Yves Saint Laurent’s RTW Spring collection launch in 2000).
Continuing her high-fashion runway dominance at Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring/Summer 2003 show, she’s just following the direction on her necklace: being as sexy as possible.
For her last Chanel show (Spring 2015), she channeled the feminist protest themed collection with a slower walk than usually. And dominated.
THE PROP MASTER
Not even Beyoncé could work this awkwardly-placed fan as well as the star demonstrates at Givenchy’s Spring 2000 show.
Giving whole new meaning to “throwing on a jacket” at the Colcci Winter 2014 show.
This just happens when she walks into a room, right?
HER VICTORIA’S SECRET REIGN
At her fist Victoria’s Secret show in 2000, it looks so strange to see the catwalker without her signature wings.
We look just like this when hair gets in our faces too.
“Just watch how it’s done, girls.” (At the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2005.)
Others can try, but none will blow an air-kiss quite like Gisele.
