Gisele Bündchen made an appearance on “The Tonight Show” last night. The model sat down with host Jimmy Fallon to discuss her forthcoming cookbook “Nourish: Simple Recipes to Empower Your Body and Feed Your Soul.”
Bündchen fashioned her own spin on the classic little black dress, wearing a wool ensemble by Alaïa, featuring long sleeves and buttons. She paired the monochrome look with Alaïa’s 100 leather over-the-knee wedge boots with translucent heels, black tights and added a pop of color with gold hoop earrings.
The supermodel recently starred in Alaïa’s new winter-spring 2024 campaign, photographed by Tyrone Lebon in Miami. Photos from the campaign featured the model in apparel made of leather, latex and knitwear. The collection debuted during Paris Fashion Week in July 2023.
“Gisele has something very unique about her, an aura which she seems to emanate. An absolute elegance. A very strong beauty. She is so powerful and graceful at the same time,” Alaïa’s creative director Peter Mulier said of the model.
“To me, she is the Alaïa woman,” Mulier continued. “And her connection to the house is so intimate. It was easy to make her embody the sensual vision of this new collection. Wearing Alaïa is natural for her.”
Although she retired from modeling on the runway in 2015, Bündchen has appeared in a number of campaigns for various fashion houses and labels. Louis Vuitton, Brazilian accessories brand Arezzo and luxury watch company IWC Schaffhausen, are among some of the brands she’s collaborated on recent campaigns.
Bündchen made the decision to make her foray into the lifestyle and wellness world with her upcoming cookbook, out March 26. “Nourish: Simple Recipes to Empower Your Body and Feed Your Soul” features 100 recipes with a focus on healthy living. The cookbook comes complete with recipes for salads, sweets, breakfast meals and soups, among others.
