Gisele Bündchen Wore 2012 Boots on Her New 2018 Magazine Cover
If you had to wear something from your own closet on a magazine cover, what would you pick? Well, for Gisele Bündchen, the answer would be obvious: her trusty Vivienne Westwood Pirate Boots, which she owns in a slew of different colors and materials.
Bündchen graces the new cover of WSJ Magazine wearing a suede version of the cult shoes along with a Loewe dress. As any Gisele aficionado would know, she's been wearing the Pirate Boots for years, as early as 2012 by our calculations. If it ain't broke, why fix it? Scroll down to see how she's worn the shoes over the years, and shop them for yourself.
