Emily Ratajkowski made a sensational entrance at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, gracing the runway for the first time at the age of 34. The model turned heads as she strutted in a matching pink bra and underwear ensemble, complete with angel wings styled like an orchid flower. Her look was amped up with bedazzled knee-high heels and chic pink gloves, capturing the essence of Victoria's Secret glamour.
While this was her first time walking the iconic runway, Ratajkowski is no stranger to the brand. She previously featured in the 2023 Victoria's Secret Icon Campaign, sharing the spotlight with legendary models like Gisele Bündchen and Naomi Campbell. "I grew up looking at images of Gisele, Candice, Naomi, and Adriana, so it’s simply surreal to be included in a campaign next to them," she shared with Popsugar. "Those women were larger than life to me – they still are in many ways – and that’s what it means to be iconic."
Ratajkowski's journey to the Victoria's Secret runway began when she signed with Ford Models at just 14. Her career skyrocketed after appearing in Robin Thicke's controversial "Blurred Lines" music video in 2013. Despite her success in modeling and acting, she decided to pivot towards entrepreneurship, launching her swimwear line, Inamorata, in 2017. "It’s been really, really fun," she told Vogue. "I’ve been doing different things with different people, but to have complete control is really special and exciting."
At the 2025 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show held at Steiner Studios on October 15, Ratajkowski joined an elite group of Angels, including Candice Swanepoel, Jasmine Tookes, Behati Prinsloo, and Gigi Hadid. Her presence on the runway not only marked a personal milestone but also underscored her enduring influence in the fashion world. With her wings now firmly in place, Emily Ratajkowski has taken flight in yet another chapter of her multifaceted career.
