Victoria’s Secret will face off with one of its most famous Angels, supermodel Gisele Bundchen, when its first store opens in Brazil later this year.
The Brazilian model -- who strutted the runway as a Victoria’s Secret Angel in its annual fashion show until 2007 -- is teaming up with closely held lingerie maker Hope to open the first Gisele Bundchen Intimates store in Sao Paulo in May. That same month, a Victoria’s Secret-branded shop is set to begin selling bras and panties in Brazil.
