Gisele Bundchen poses topless as she shows off her extreme flexibility to celebrate 20-year career in Vogue Brasil
She announced her retirement from the runway less than two weeks ago, but it seems Gisele Bundchen isn't quite done in the dazzling department.
The 34-year-old supermodel released a couple more images from her new May spread in Vogue Brasil on Tuesday, two days before the issue hits newsstands.
In an image posted to her Instagram account, the former Victoria's Secret Angel shows off her extreme flexibility as she kicks one leg high into the air.

Red hot! Gisele Bundchen poses topless and kicks her leg high up into the air in a new image from her Vogue Brasil spread, celebrating her 20 year career
She went topless, stretching her arms in such a way so as to protect some of her modesty.
Gisele wore only a pair of sleek billowing red trousers, with her hair swept back in a ponytail that fanned out dramatically in the air as though blown up by a gust of wind.
In a black and white head shot posted to Instagram, she is photographed in a more nitty-gritty manner.

Gisele's rather frizzy mane frames her face and her hands are poised under her chin, obscuring her neck.
Her hands and part of her face are covered in a powdery black substance, perhaps dirt, in the striking image captioned: 'When we honor the earth, we honor ourselves.'
Gisele's artsy black-and-white cover shows her totally naked and posing in an alluring, sideways pose with arched back and shadows and light showcasing the lean, long curves of her body.

'Grateful': Gisele said she was 'grateful' and felt 'privileged' for such opportunities but said that her body was telling her it was time to quit
The supermodel - who earned $47 million last year, according to Forbes - said her body was telling her that now is the time to quit
'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.
'Automatically my body tells me if what I do is worth it, and it asked to stop,' Gisele told Brazilian newspaper Folha de S. Paulo. 'I respect my body. It's a privilege to be able to stop.'
Gisele walked her last catwalk on April 15 in Brazil for Colcci during São Paulo Fashion Week, donning a series of summery ensembles.
