Gisele Bundchen is reportedly retiring from the runway in April.
Brazilian newspaper Moda Estadao reported Friday the 34-year-old supermodel will walk her last runway show for Brazilian brand Colcci during Sao Paulo Fashion Week on April 20.
Sources tell the site that it has always been Gisele’s dream to finish her catwalk career in her native Brazil. The wife of NFL quarterback Tom Brady, however, will still model for numerous contracts including Under Armour and Chanel.
Gisele most recently walked the runway during Paris Fashion Week back in September. At that time, she joined designer Karl Lagerfeld and models like Cara Delevingne, Kendall Jenner, Georgia May Jagger, Joan Smalls and Gigi Hadid for a feminist protest-themed show on the Boulevard Chanel No.5 runway.
Gisele has topped Forbes’ list of Highest-Paid Models for eight years in a row. According to Forbes last year, the 34-year-old Brazilian beauty earned $47 million before taxes and fees, around $16 million more than her husband’s annual paycheck.
Gisele’s 2014 earning came from her modeling contracts with H&M, Chanel and Carolina Herrera, as well as a cut of sales from the jelly sandals she designs for Brazilian shoemaker Grendene. She’s also the face of Pantene hair products and Oral-B in her native Brazil and owns a lingerie line, Gisele Bundchen Intimates.
