Throwback Thursday: Gisele Bündchen as a Teen Model

Last week, supermodel and super beautiful mom, Gisele Bündchen hung up her modeling shoes, but before her official runway retirement the Brazilian beauty shared a priceless snap of herself when she was a 14-year-old budding model.

After 20 years of modeling for magazines such as Elle and Vogue, Bündchen is ready to transition into the next phase of her career. When she was at Sao Paulo Fashion Week, seven days ago, her catwalk strut marked the last runway walk of her career.

We also found a photo of a 19-year-old Bündchen below, posing for Tom Munro and looking almost unrecognizable, wearing bangs and straightened hair.

Bündchen posted a heartfelt message on her social media pages about her long career.

“I am grateful that at 14, I was given the opportunity to start this journey. Today after 20 years in the industry, it is a privilege to be doing my last fashion show by choice and yet still be working in other facets of the business. #firstrunway #14yearsold”
