British model Kate Moss made her Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show debut, alongside her daughter, during the return of the US runway event.
The lingerie brand returned for its first live fashion show in six years, with some of the world’s most famous models and musicians gracing its New York City catwalk.
Moss made a surprise appearance during the event, strutting on the catwalk moments after her 22-year-old daughter Lila Moss took to the stage in a pink ensemble.
Meanwhile, US star Gigi Hadid was the epitome of glamour, with her highly-anticipated return to her angel wings opening the show before her sister Bella Hadid made a surprise appearance as a scarlet bombshell.
Cher performed a medley of her 1998 track Strong Enough and the remix of her hit song Believe as she led the show’s first line-up of all female performers, including K-pop star Lisa and South African singer Tyla.
Donning a pair of fluffy wings, Tyla interacted with models as she performed her Push 2 Start track before singing her Grammy-winning song Water, as she modelled her baby blue lingerie with gold detailing.
The America’s Next Top Model host, 50, broke her retirement to walk her first Victoria’s Secret runway since 2005.
Brazilian model Adriana Lima also made an angelic return to the show, having announced her retirement in 2018.
Before the show, Gigi Hadid told Entertainment Tonight that her boyfriend, US actor Bradley Cooper, was on “dad duty” but described him as “so supportive”, while she guessed her friend Taylor Swift would “probably be cosy on the couch” with boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The fashion show, which launched in 1995, was a major pop culture event and at its peak was watched by millions of viewers each year.
However, in 2018 it fell to its lowest ratings as the show began to attract criticism, including for lack of diversity on the catwalk.
The 2019 show was cancelled but was brought back this year, with the brand confirming it was “celebrating all women”.
