Elle France capitalized on the FIFA World Cup games taking place in Brazil by having Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen pose for the cover of the French fashion magazine. The editorial featured the beautiful blonde muse posing with a patriotic Brazil flag dressed up yellow and green clothing items.
Bundchen hasn't aged a day since her days as a Victoria's Secret Angel. In the Elle France June 2014 issue, Bundchen shows her love for her country by wrapping her naked body up in an enormous Brazilian flag. The shoot focuses on a minimalistic look with Bundchen's barely-there makeup and tousled locks. The fun shoot captured Bundchen's playful side as she wore a cropped yellow Brazil sweater, green high-waisted undies and jumped around.
