The Brazilian supermodel made a comeback on the runway at the age of 43, showing off her “slim” body transformation for the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
Adriana Lima’s appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on October 15, 2024, was one of the best moments of the night. After retiring in 2018, after nearly 20 years with the lingerie brand, and having her third child in 2022, she amazed the crowd with her new look, which fans quickly noticed and praised.
Lima first shared her retirement in 2018 at the age of 37. In an Instagram post, which she has since deleted, she reflected on her long time with the brand. “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,” she wrote.
When talking about her last walk, Lima told People, “This has been my 18th fashion show, and I am still as excited as I was from the first day. I think this year is going to be the highlight of my career.”
After leaving modeling, she was only seen at some events and on social media. In a TikTok video from February 2022, Lima shared that she was pregnant with her third child, her first with partner Andre Lemmers.
By April, the couple released a gender reveal video, announcing that a boy would join Lima’s daughters from her previous marriage, Valentina and Sienna. Her son, Cyan, was born in August 2022.
During her pregnancy, the retired supermodel looked amazing in stylish maternity outfits at important events, like the 75th Cannes Film Festival in May 2022. Wearing a mustard gown from Nicolas Jebran, she proudly showed off her baby bump on the red carpet, and while she looked great, it was different from her usual slimmer figure.
Fast forward to 2023, Lima attended the Venice International Film Festival in a Pinko gown with a plunging neckline and gold accents. At this event, her fuller face and body were still noticeable.
A few months later, the supermodel went to the Mon Cheri Barbara Tag event in Munich, Germany, in December 2023. She wore a form-fitting gray gown by Donna Karan and looked like she was losing her previous weight.
However, her October 2024 runway appearance showed her full transformation. During the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Brooklyn, Lima wowed the crowd not just with her outfits but also with her youthful appearance. A backstage photo captured her glowing skin and tight facial features.
Once ready, Lima hit the runway wearing a checker-striped outfit with a black bra and high-waisted pants, topped with a long-sleeved cut-out top for her first look. Her grunge-style angel wings added a cool touch to the outfit.
For her second appearance, she wore a red lace nightie with sparkling wings that showcased her renewed energy. This moment reminded everyone of her younger days as an angel for the brand, and fans quickly expressed their admiration for her physical change on social media.
One fan said, “She’s lost so much weight. She’s back .” Another wrote, “SHE LOOKS GREAT HER SLIM BODY IS BACK. GREAT JOB. I LIKE THIS OUTFIT TOO.”
Kiya Cole, the mother of actress Skai Jackson, added, “She worked hard in the gym this past year! I was a witness. No quick fix for her!” Another commenter expressed, “She is back with a vengeance, love her.”
Fans were also happy to see the show featuring a variety of healthier bodies, like Lima’s. One commented, “These bodies look healthier, and I like that, in different sizes but healthy, good for VS.”
In the song “Trying Too Hard”, Katy Perry dons a completely see-through dress, igniting a heated debate
Katy Perry stole the spotlight at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards with a grand entrance that left attendees and viewers alike in awe. The acclaimed pop star flaunted a fashion-forward ensemble that defined daring elegance.
Her outfit was a fusion of audacious elements: a sleek black bralette paired with matching bottoms, all accentuated by a daring fishnet overlay. The ensemble was further embellished with a vibrant red ribbon that ran along the sides, injecting a bold splash of color into her look. Katy complemented this with oversized sunglasses, adding a final touch of chic flair to her ensemble.
Stepping onto the stage to present the prestigious Song of the Year award, Katy Perry opted for a striking combination: sleek black underwear coupled with attention-demanding thigh-high leather boots that featured towering heels.
The judge of ‘American Idol’ styled her hair in soft, flowing waves, perfectly complemented by muted, matte lipstick and impeccably applied dark, smoky eyeliner. The result was an effortlessly elegant appearance that captivated the audience and photographers alike.
While Katy Perry received praise from many for her fearless fashion choices, not everyone was in agreement. One observer remarked: “Seems like she’s trying too hard…” Another critiqued: “There’s a way to exude sex appeal while maintaining class, but this misses the mark”.
Throughout the year, Katy has consistently pushed boundaries with her fashion statements, and her latest red carpet appearance has undeniably sparked widespread online conversation. Her ability to command attention and set trends continues to solidify her status as a style icon in the music industry.
