Gisele Bundchen turned heads when she stepped into the Met Gala after-party at Zero Bond on Monday in a tweed Chanel minidress.
The supermodel, 42, had swapped her white paneled dress for the LBD to let her hair down at the star-studded party attended by Kendall Jenner and Rita Ora.
It marks an exciting new chapter for Gisele, who attended the event alone for the first time in 17 years following her split from 45-year-old Tom Brady.
Gisele looked every inch like a ’90s siren as she flaunted her famous pins in the thigh-skimming mini — a nod to this year’s Met Gala theme, Karl Lagerfeld.
The runway queen pulled a long black wool coat over her shoulders and completed the look with opaque tights and black strappy heels.

The shimmering white dress featured white stripes over a sheer base, which showed off the star’s toned legs and enviable frame.
Harking back to her Victoria’s Secret Angel days, the dress was paired with a striking white feathered cape and skyscraper heels.
Her locks were styled in soft waves and she sported a radiant makeup palette for her first red carpet since splitting from Tom.
The 2023 Met Gala returned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where everyone from Kim Kardashian to Paris Hilton attended the fundraising event.

Traditionally, the event took place on the first Monday of May.
The theme of the ball was Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. The late German designer was the creative director of Chanel for a long time. He passed away at the age of 85 in 2019.
His beloved cat, Choupette, was even invited to the festivities.
The supermodel and NFL superstar confirmed their split on Oct. 28 after weeks of speculation — with Gisele now at the center of a swirl of rumors about the status of her relationship with hunky jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente.
Brady first retired in January 2022 while with the New England Patriots, but was only gone for 40 days before announcing he would be returning to the Buccaneers for the 2022 season.
Gisele filed for divorce because she felt her partner “wasn’t as considerate as he should have been.”
‘That is what [Gisele] wanted: to be heard. And he didn’t hear her,” the insider writes on the site.
While Bundchen, who was born in Brazil, was raising their two children, the athlete was “busy following his passion.” Brady also shares 15-year-old son Jack with ex Bridget Moynahan.
Someone familiar with the quarterback said, “When he’s in the middle of a season, [Brady] does what most NFL players do: live, breathe, eat, and sleep football,” adding, “Tom is more like that than anyone else.”
