SPLENDEROSA said...: OMG, I remember this shoot. Do you think it's because she's 6' tall and wears a size 4 that she's so so graceful? Is it because she's Brazilian? Or is it magic? xx's lovie.; April 29, 2010 at 1:34 PM

Cornflake said...: Gorgeous shoot! Those dresses are amazing.

I laughed though when I saw Gisele with the boxing gloves!!; April 29, 2010 at 6:38 PM
Jacqueline said...: Oh Deej,
This is the ultimate in gorgeous decadence. Gisele is SO beautiful and she shows these beautiful gowns pff to perfection.
I've never wanted to be famous but, I would love to have a chance to wear a dress like the first one and I think that, being famous or mega rich is the only way one would be able to wear one of these sensational gowns. I don't think that going up the pub in rural Hertfordshire would be the right place to wear one, do you ?!!! haha
Such amazing couture, worn by the most beautiful woman in the most wonderful location. XXXX; April 29, 2010 at 6:54 PM
Heavenly Housewife said...: Pure glam, love it.
*kisses* HH; April 29, 2010 at 6:54 PM
Amanda said...: How absolutely stunning - reminds me of the scene in Sex & the City when Carrie is trying on all those amazing wedding dresses. Gisele really is very beautiful isn't she?; April 29, 2010 at 8:27 PM
Flick, said...: The more tulle, the better, I say! Stunning shoot, that location is as gorgeous as the models and couture!

Flaviana said...: Don't you think that Gisele is the proof that mother nature can be really cruel sometimes with us mere mortals ??
I wish I could wear dress nr.3 on my wedding ..whenever that day will be :-)

Bumpkin on a Swing said...: (Bumpkin Thoughts)
What's another word for fabulous, because you've said that like 1000 times here. The ____ Australian must be tired of hearing that, and think you are rhetoric and boring.
Redundant at best, she's nice maybe she hasn't labeled me rhetoric yet. You could try and say something ______ like those are some ______ dresses, I love the couture, (note to self really look couture up so you are sure what it means this time),. I could tell her how Captain John will squeal when he sees Gisele in these get ups. He sure loves those leggy women. I just can't think of a better word than ____.
Oh hi, are you there DJ, I just wanted to say these dresses are lovely, and ask if you could please put this on the little favorites section over there to my left, so that when I want to come back 1000 times to look at it, I won't have to search so hard from it. You can't imagine how happy it makes me today. You are just the oil spill fixer-upper that I needed. Love You, Love Shoes! Mwah, and another on the other.; April 30, 2010 at 8:12 AM
Sarah Klassen said...: Oh my! This is purely stunning... between the setting and the dresses and her hair... perfection! Can you imagine wearing the dress and being in the second to last image? How heavenly would that be?

Hope you are having a wonderful week, my friend :)
