Ellie’s Hang out

On the runway, timeless allure met a new generation of glamour. Icons like Adriana Lima, Gigi and Bella Hadid, Joan Smalls, Anok Yai, Yumi Nu, Ashley Graham, Paloma Elsesser, and Alex Consani returned to captivate the crowd, while fresh faces brought an invigorating energy to the catwalk. Among them, WNBA star Angel Reese and Olympic gold medalist Sunisa Lee made their much-anticipated runway debuts — and they did not disappoint.

And of course, a Victoria’s Secret show is never just about the fashion — it’s about the spectacle. This year’s star-studded music line up included powerhouse performances from Missy Elliott, Karol G, Madison Beer, and K-pop phenomenon TWICE, all set to a nostalgic soundtrack featuring classics by Mariah Carey and Britney Spears. Ahead, we unveil the most unforgettable moments from the 2025 extravaganza.

For the first time in history, a pregnant model opened the Victoria’s Secret runway. Radiating ethereal beauty, Jasmine Tookes took center stage in pearl-encrusted, clam shell–inspired wings and a sheer mesh gown, gliding down the runway to a dreamy, otherworldly soundtrack that perfectly embodied the fantasy essence the VS show is known for.

Madison Beer stepped into her showgirl era at the Victoria’s Secret runway, captivating the crowd with a sultry live performance of her biggest hits. Clad in a blush corset, knee-high white stockings, and ethereal pink feathered wings, she exuded old-Hollywood glamour reimagined through a modern lens. As her vocals filled the space, Gigi Hadid took to the runway, the first model to be sound tracked by Beer’s live performance, marking a seamless fusion of fashion and performance art.

Bella Hadid embodied a modern siren in a striking crimson ensemble, commanding the runway with effortless allure. Her look featured a red satin bra and matching briefs paired with sheer, thigh-high stockings fastened by delicate garters. A flowing robe cascaded from her shoulders, adding a sense of cinematic drama to every step.

Alex Consani captivated the crowd in an exquisite black lace lingerie set, styled with sheer stockings and delicate garters that exuded timeless allure. Draped over her shoulders, a metallic silver robe — woven with tinsel-like shimmer — caught the light with every step, creating a mesmerizing, almost liquid effect as she glided down the runway.

Candice Swanepoel returned to the Victoria’s Secret runway in a moment that defined pure celestial glamour. Channelling a golden goddess, the South African supermodel commanded the stage with her signature poise and radiance. Her look was a study in contrasts — delicate yet powerful featuring intricate brown lace paired with a diamond-encrusted top that caught the light with every graceful movement.

Completing the ensemble, a pair of sculpted golden wings unfurled behind her, glimmering with a divine luminosity that evoked the brand’s most iconic era. With her sunlit blonde waves and confident stride, Candice didn’t just walk the runway she reignited the spirit of the Victoria’s Secret angel, proving that timeless allure never fades.

It wasn’t only Jasmine Tookes’ historic opening that broke new ground for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. WNBA star Angel Reese and Olympic gymnast Suni Lee made history as the first professional athletes to ever grace the brand’s legendary runway. While celebrity cameos have become increasingly common across luxury fashion presentations, both women approached their debuts with discipline and precision — reportedly dedicating hours of training to master the art of the runway walk. The result was a powerful fusion of athleticism and elegance that redefined what it means to be a Victoria’s Secret model.

Quen Blackwell made a striking debut at the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, blending her signature confidence with runway glamour. She wore a delicate pink lingerie set accented with sheer mesh and dark trim, a look that perfectly balanced softness and edge. Flowing waves framed her face, and her glowy, natural makeup highlighted her effortless beauty. The look captured Quen’s vibrant energy playful yet powerful marking her as one of the night’s standout newcomers and signaling a fresh, inclusive direction for the brand.

Anok Yai captivated the runway at the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in a pale pink lingerie set paired with sculptural white wings. The look balanced softness and power sleek lines, radiant skin, and minimalist glam highlighting her striking beauty. With her confident walk and effortless elegance, Anok brought an ethereal energy that made her one of the night’s most unforgettable moments.
