Description from the seller

"Gidèle Bundchen" ...a retrospective of some of her most daring, controversial, and revealing editorial and commercial projects of the past 20 years, Gisele Bündchen offers readers a sense of exclusivity and timelessness - one of those once-in-a-lifetime purchases to own a sliver of Bündchen's inimitable legacy.,

XXL fomat : This coffee table book measures 34.5cm x 25.5cm x 5cm and weighs 4kg
Tashen - Hardback with tranparent dustjacket and swiss binding - English - 2016 - 536 pages

As good as new with the original plastic protective sleeve still present (albeit with some small tears). See also the attached photos

Born in the Brazilian countryside, and nearly six feet tall by the age of 14, Gisele Bündchen grew from humble roots into the most successful supermodel 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 Vogue, 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 cover, to iconic shots from such industry luminaries as Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Mario Sorrenti, Helmut Newton, Patrick Demarchelier, Paolo Roversi, 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.
First published as a limited edition—now available in a popular TASCHEN edition!

The book will be securely packed and shipped with Track & Trace.

Seller's Story

Almost thirty years ago I started collecting comics and "Para BD" (silkscreens, postcards, original drawings, etc.), initially somewhat more general, later especially focused on Jean-Pierre Gibrat and François Bourgeon (of whom I own a large collection). Lately my attention is turning more and more toward art and photography books. In 2024 I decided to sell part of this collection, and these are the items you can find here on Catawiki. I have always taken great care of all the items in my collection, and I continue to do so when shipping my sold items, so that you as a buyer can be satisfied with your purchase. Don't hesitate if you have questions for me; I always try to respond quickly. Good auction!
