Hard to believe that the 16 year legacy of Marc Jacobs designing for Louis Vuitton has finally reached its close.  But though we have to say goodbye to one of our favorites for the fashion label, he's left us with one final campaign for the spring 2014 collection, and we couldn't be more thankful.

With lovely faces of star power like Gisele Bundchen, Catherine Deneuve, and Sofia Coppola, all of whom have had a long and luscious relationship with the brand, we're left to pause a moment at the lovely headshots taken, featuring the collections new handbags.

The shots were taken by photographer Steven Meisel on a subdued charcoal color studio backdrop.  The wardrobe is demure, elegant, and portrays the same mood as the looks on the women's faces:  restraint.  The campaign takes on an almost retrospective tone, as if to say, take a moment, settle down, and quietly pay homage to the the legacy of Marc Jacobs, that will cary on long beyond his departure.

Gisele Bundchen Launches Lingerie Collection

When you hear the name Gisele Bundchen, you instantly think: frumpy, reserved, turtlenecks right?!  WRONG!  How about sexy, skimpy, lanky and angel?  That's more like it.

The 32 year old mother of two, who just so happens to be the world's most powerful model who flew to such soaring heights as a Victoria's Secret Angel, is embarking on a new venture, and one that highlights her area of expertise: lingerie.  What else?

The new line is called Gisele Intimates, and as indicated on her new Vogue Brazil cover, it's going to be a sexy launch.  And yes, she will be modeling the line.  

She teased the world on social media with a quick couple of glimpses with some behind the scenes shots from the line's latest shoot, saying "I hope you like it!"  

What do you think of the upcoming line?  Will you be getting your Gisele on?
