And no one’s happy about it

The Victoria’s Secret Show 2017 took place in Shanghai today and is already set to go down as one for the ages.

’This will, without question, be the biggest fashion event in history and our most ambitious show by far,’ explained Victoria’s Secret CEO, Ed Razek. ‘The event is well in hand and coming together beautifully. We have more models than ever before – 55 representing 17 countries, and four world-class entertainers.’

And he’s not wrong - the show’s A-list performers were announced over the weekend, and with Harry Styles headlining and the Victoria’s Secret line up being one of the best yet, it wasn't a show to be missed.

From Adriana Lima and Candice Swanepoel to Lily Aldridge and Jasmine Tookes, all of the angels were out in full force, but for one, that walk down the runway was particularly emotional.

It was announced today that after 17 years working for the lingerie brand, Brazilian model Alessandra Ambrosio will be walking her last catwalk as a VS angel, officially hanging up her wings this year.
