Victoria's Secret: The Iconic Moments

by - Wednesday, November 11, 2015

Victoria's Secret is a well-known retailer, selling women's lingerie, womenswear, along with beauty products, perfumes and of course those infamous catalogues featuring photoshoots. It's a multi-billion dollar company that is world-renowned. 

But it's not the brand we focus on, it's the models who wear the lingerie that are the show stoppers. The models strut their stuff at the Victoria's Fashion Show. This annual show began in 1995, starting from no broadcasting and evolving from webcasts to television, it has become a tradition ever since.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion has men salivating and sweating, while women envy and admire the models. It's not just lingerie sales the increase, but I'm pretty sure gym memberships and personal trainings are sought out.

So, what are the most memorable and iconic moments that Victoria's Secret has given us?

Adriana Lima - 2012
 The first fashion show Adriana Lima did for Victoria's Secret was way
back in 1999, and since being contracted as an Angel in 2000,
has appeared on subsequent shows ever since,
opening shows in 2003, 2007, 2008, and 2010.
Naomi Campbell - 1996
Debut on the VS Runway
Kylie Bisutti - 2009
Victoria's Secret held a competition to find a model for the
runway, this was the first and only time this occurred.
Karolina Kurkova - 2010
The angel wings made from real peacock feathers had
heads turning.
Lui Wen - 2012
This model made history being the first As model to walk the
runway back in 2009. During the 2012 show, she sported a
Temptu's airbrushed tattoos, which took a total of six hours to put on
the tattoos, and t took 30 minutes to take it off.
Lindsay Ellington - 2013
This angel donned a corset and nylon wings covered in
Swarovski crystals created by a 3D printer 
Candice Swanepoel - 2013
The model wore the infamous Royal Fantasy Bra, she made her debut back in 2007.
It is a Mouawad jewel-bedecked bra that took 14 craftspeople 527 hours to complete.
This is one of my personal favourites.
Heidi Klum - 2003
The model walked the runway in some of the biggest wings I've
ever seen, Victoria's Secret really amped it up this time.
Cara Delevingne - 2013
The model sported the dark angel look but then there are those rubber
gloves, looks like she's about to wash the dishes or something.
Tyra Banks - 1998
This was the year the angel wings were introduced and Tyra, one of the
original Victoria's Secret Angels was one of the few to wear these
little beauties, and boy did she rock them.

Miranda Kerr - 2011
My all-time favourite model got the pleasure of wearing the Fantasy
Treasure Bra and made the 2.5 million dollar bra look worthless aka

Miranda Kerr is priceless and "bae" af [shudders at the use
of this modern "word"]

THE PERFORMANCES THAT ROCKED MY WORLD

Ariana Grande - 2014
While performing a medley, Ariana Grande was whacked by Elsa Hosk.
It was not my favourite performance ever but it was not only memorable an

hilarious but very relatable, we mere mortals are no force for theVictoria Secret's
models. It also inspiredmany memes, and how doesn't love memes.

Rihanna - 2012
All that needs to be said is the Queen killed it in her performance of Diamonds
Kanye West - 2011
The almighty Yeezus performance 'Stronger', Jay-Z all

 made a guest appearance for 'Niggas in Paris'


Spice Girls - 2007
The group performed 'Stop' and this is when all my
dreams came true, I was so glad to see all the girls back together again
and on the Victoria's Secret runway, nothing is better than that.


MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE MOMENT THAT SLAYED ME




Victoria Secret for the first time ever showed off two fantasy bras, each worth $2 million a piece. The dynamic duo that modelled these blue-topaz and red-garnet numbers were veteran Angels Lima and Ambrosio. Each piece took 1,380 hours of work to create, using more than 15,000 precious stones.
