New York: Supermodel Gigi Hadid has made a dazzling return to the runway, marking her fifth appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2025.
The 30-year-old model, who first walked the iconic runway in 2015, wowed fans on Wednesday night as she embodied glamour, confidence, and grace, proving once again why she earned her wings.
Hadid first appeared in a stunning pink lace two-piece lingerie set, layered with a floor-length coat made of delicate pink flower petals. As she walked, singer Madison Beer performed her hit song “Make You Mine,” creating an ethereal moment that had the crowd cheering.
Later in the show, Hadid reappeared in an all-white ensemble featuring a bustier top and boy shorts, accentuated by massive angel wings made of soft, pillowy fabric.

The 2025 show marks Hadid’s second consecutive return following the brand’s six-year hiatus. She opened last year’s show wearing a pink silk romper and feathered wings—an experience she called “unforgettable.”
“This was the first time I’ve ever opened a Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. I’ll never forget it,” she shared in a previous interview.
This year, she shared the stage with Angel Reese, Ashley Graham, Jasmine Tookes, and Irina Shayk, among other stars. Speaking on camera, an emotional Hadid expressed her gratitude:
“The dream come true is doing this with all the girls I admire — and one of them being my sister makes it even more surreal.”
Hadid, who shares a 5-year-old daughter Khai with ex-partner Zayn Malik, said she loves sharing this side of her work with her little girl.
“This is the most glamorous, sparkly, fun version of my job. I can’t wait to tell Khai about it—she’s just as excited about the costumes as I am.”
As the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show wrapped up, Hadid reflected on her journey through the years:
“I come back every time grateful for that girl who did the first show, and for my teenage self who used to watch it. With each show, I feel like I’ve grown into a new version of myself.”
