Gisele Bündchen Returns: Bra-Free Glamour with Kinky Boots

Gisele Bundchen has landed her first high-profile modeling job since welcoming her third child, a baby boy, with new love Joaquim Valente

GISELE BUNDCHEN'S SIZZLING COMEBACK: SUPERMODEL ROCKS NEW CAMPAIGN AFTER BABY NO. 3

The queen of supermodels is back and better than ever! Gisele Bundchen, 45, has just landed her first major campaign since giving birth to her third child with new beau Joaquim Valente. The Brazilian bombshell is serving up drama and glamour in a sizzling shoot for Elisabetta Franchi, proving that even at the ripe age of 45, she's still got what it takes to slay the fashion world.

The former Victoria's Secret Angel traded in her laid-back, hippie-chic look for a daring, come-hither vibe, donning black leather boots, minidresses, and even a leather motorcycle jacket. The supermodel's Instagram post announcing the campaign featured a sultry snap of her in a pair of stiletto heels, leather briefs over pantyhose, and a confident smirk that left fans gagging.

But what really got tongues wagging was Gisele's caption, which hinted at the new chapter she's embarked on with Valente. "Shooting the new @elisabettafranchi campaign in a leather jacket, high boots, and gloves in the middle of Miami summer," she wrote, adding, "Now that’s what I call hot! Just leave it to my dear friends @luigiandiango to turn the heat into fun!"

It's no secret that Gisele has been juggling motherhood with her career, but judging by these latest shots, she's clearly found a groove. In fact, in an interview with Vogue France last month, the supermodel confessed that she's "very grateful" for the time spent with her baby boy and is now back to her normal self.

"I feel like I've earned it," Gisele said, reflecting on her post-split life with ex-husband Tom Brady. "I'm grateful to be where I am, and my priorities are clearer. I feel more comfortable in my own skin."

But what's not clear is the name of baby No. 3 – or at least, that's according to Gisele herself. Sources close to the family tell The Scholarly Note that friends have speculated about a few possibilities: Van (short for Vânia Nonnenmacher, Gisele's late mother), Valdir (after her father), or Pat (a nod to twin sister Patricia). One thing's for sure, though – this little bundle of joy is already getting the red carpet treatment.

In fact, just last week, Gisele gave fans a rare glimpse into her daily life with baby No. 3 and boyfriend Valente in an Instagram post showcasing their adventures in Brazil. The photo dump featured snaps of the trio horseback riding, playing pool, and even attempting some martial arts moves together (because, why not?).

But what really stole the show was Gisele's candid caption: "Thank you, summer, you’ve been so good to us!" – a sentiment likely echoed by her partner in crime, supermodel Heidi Klum, who gave it a double-tap of approval.

Out was her hippy light makeup cut-off-shorts look that she wears in real life and in was dramatic glamour. 'Shooting the new @elisabettafranchi campaign in a leather jacket, high boots, and gloves in the middle of Miami summer,' wrote the looker from Brazil in her Instagram caption
