Victoria’s Secret reveals its complete line-up of models [WATCH VIDEO]
Victoria’s Secret has revealed its complete line-up of models for its highly anticipated 20th anniversary fashion show to be held in New York on Nov. 10. The lingerie brand announced its full line-up, which includes 44 new names. This year, the roster of angels has jumped from five to 15.
The five veteran VS beauties will be joined by 10 new angels among other fresh faces, Express UK reported. The new angel line-up announced by the brand earlier this year includes Kate Grigorieva, Taylor Hill, Elsa Hosk, Martha Hunt, Jac Jagaciak, Stella Maxwell, Lais Ribeiro, Sara Sampaio, Romee Strijd and Jasmine Tookes. They will be joined by the pros like Candice Swanepoel, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Behati Prinsloo and Lily Aldridge, Elle UK reported.
Lima and Ambrosia will be walking the VS catwalk for their 16th show. It will also feature models Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, who are making their debut at the VS show, Vogue reported. Joan Smalls, who has walked the show for four years, will also return this year, but not as an angel.
However, Lindsay Ellingson, Karlie Kloss and Doutzen Kroes will be missed by the audience. Aldridge is all set to stun in the Fireworks Fantasy Bra, worth US$2 million (AU$2.7 million). The runway extravaganza this year will return to New York, where its first fashion show was held in 1995.
Though the show will be held on Tuesday, it will not be available to watch until it airs on CBS on Dec. 8. At 10 p.m. VS will offer plenty of on-stage and behind-the-scenes snaps on social media. They have also released videos documenting the process of putting the show together, including one in which Gigi is seen finding out she got the gig.
The musical extravaganza will witness Selena Gomez, The Weeknd and Ellie Goulding, who reportedly stepped in after Rihanna cancelled last minute.
At last year’s runway show in London, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande and Hozier took to the stage for a musical extravaganza. The star-studded event saw fashionistas like Olivia Palermo, Ellie Goulding sitting in the front row. Models from Kloss to Swanepoel stormed the runway.
Since its inception two decades ago, the Victoria’s Secret runway extravaganza has been held in various cities like Los Angeles, Miami and Cannes, in addition to London and New York.
