Gigi Hadid is gearing up to return to the runway for the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on October 15, reflecting on her journey since making her debut for the iconic lingerie brand a decade ago.

In a recent interview, the supermodel showcased her effortless style in a preppy-inspired look—a chic pink cardigan casually tied around her shoulders over a black tank top and jeans, cinched with a navy belt. She wore her hair in an elegant updo and opted for soft, natural makeup that perfectly highlighted her features.

Gigi Hadid Opens Up About Auditioning for VS Fashion Show

While many might assume Gigi landed a spot in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on her first try, she revealed that she actually auditioned “two or three times” before finally earning her place on the 2015 runway.

Reflecting on her younger self, the mom of one grew emotional as she shared, “So, you can imagine what I felt when I got my first show. She just wanted it so bad. And like, I was thinking about it earlier today. And I look back at pictures of that time, and the world was so hard on her. And not just me; it is hard on girls.”

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show made its highly anticipated return to the runway in 2024 after a six-year hiatus since its cancellation in 2019. The comeback event brought together an exciting mix of iconic veterans and fresh faces, with stars like Tyra Banks, Adriana Lima, Kate Moss, Bella Hadid, Behati Prinsloo, and Candice Swanepoel all gracing the stage.

Gigi Hadid Gives Bradley Cooper a Sweet Shoutout

As Gigi prepares to hit the runway, it’s safe to assume her boyfriend will be cheering her on—whether from the pink carpet or from home. Last year, Bradley didn’t attend the show in person, but she gave him a sweet shoutout beforehand, sharing that he was supporting her from home because he was “on dad duty,” looking after his daughter, Lea De Seine, whom he shares with model Irina Shayk—who also happened to be walking in the same show.

A year on, their relationship remains strong, highlighted by Gigi’s recent rare public acknowledgment of Cooper. She shared a cozy snapshot of herself on Instagram Stories at a private screening of Cooper’s latest film, Is This Thing On?, which premiered at the New York Film Festival.

“Premiere night! Congratulations to my love!” she captioned the photo.
