Adriana Lima’s appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on October 15, 2024, was undoubtedly one of the evening’s standout moments. Having retired in 2018 after nearly two decades with the lingerie brand and giving birth to her third child in 2022, she mesmerized the crowd with a fresh look that fans enthusiastically praised.

Lima first announced her retirement at the age of 37 through an Instagram post, which has since been deleted. In her message, she expressed gratitude for her long-standing relationship with the brand, stating, “Dear Victoria, thank you for showing me the world, sharing your secrets, and most importantly not just giving me wings but teaching me to fly.”

Yet, it was Lima’s runway comeback in October 2024 that truly showcased her remarkable transformation. During the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show held in Brooklyn, she captivated the audience not only with her outfit selections but also with her youthful appearance. A backstage photo highlighted her radiant skin and defined facial features.

Once she hit the runway, Lima donned a striking checker-striped outfit, featuring a black bra and high-waisted trousers, complemented by a long-sleeved, cut-out top for her first look. Her grunge-inspired angel wings added an edgy twist to the ensemble.

For her second look, she opted for a red lace nightgown adorned with sparkling wings that reflected her invigorated spirit. This moment harkened back to her earlier days as a brand angel, and fans didn’t hesitate to express their admiration for her stunning transformation on social media.
