Gigi Hadid’s Comeback at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

On Tuesday, October 15, Gigi Hadid made a remarkable comeback at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. This was her first appearance on the Victoria’s Secret runway since 2018.

The fashion show was held at the Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn, New York.

The 34-year-old supermodel opened the show with a striking appearance in a silky pink one-piece outfit that featured short shorts and a plunging neckline, complemented by an oversized pair of pink wings.

Similarly, her cropped blonde hair was slicked back, and she accessorized her ensemble with large diamond hoop earrings and gladiator-style heels.

As she strutted down the runway, a verse from INXS’s hit song “Never Tear Us Apart” played in the background, particularly resonating with the lyric “We all have wings but some of us don’t know why.”

The moment was highlighted by a screen displaying the message “We are back,” before Hadid gracefully descended back down the runway.

The day before the show, Hadid shared her enthusiasm on social media by posting a carousel of nostalgic throwback pictures. In her heartfelt caption, she expressed her excitement about returning to the Victoria’s Secret stage.

She wrote,

“After today’s rehearsal I can confirm that it will forever feel like a dream come true. Looking back on some of my favorite VS show moments over the years and I’m so excited to do it again tomorrow with the most incredible, dedicated, creative VS Team & with so many women I love and some I grew up watching. It is an honor.”

How did Gigi Hadid celebrate her friendship with Taylor Swift at Victoria’s Secret?

During her walk at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Gigi honored her close friend Taylor Swift by recreating one of Swift’s signature poses.

As she reached the end of the runway, Hadid poked out one hip and raised her arm straight up, a move that is a signature of Swift’s Eras Tour performances.

Before the event, Hadid expressed her doubts to Entertainment Tonight about whether Swift would attend the show. However, she acknowledged that Swift had helped her prepare for her runway return.

She mentioned that there was “something new on the runway” that Swift had taught her during tour rehearsals. The model explains,

“There’s an aspect to it that I was trained to do by Taylor on her tour, In one of her rehearsals she was like, ‘I’m gonna show you how we do this.’ Did that, and now I’m using it tonight.”

When asked about Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce possibly being in the audience, Hadid speculated they might be spending time together at home instead. She guessed,

“I think if they have one more night before he goes back [to Kansas City] then they will probably be cosy on the couch. That’s just my guess. But she will also be supporting. I can feel it,”

Hadid also spoke about her boyfriend, Bradley Cooper, who was watching from home while taking care of her daughter. The Guest in Residence founder is a mom to a daughter Khai, whom she welcomed with her ex-boyfriend Zayn Malik.

She confirmed that Cooper could not attend but was very supportive of her participation in the show. Hadid said,

“He is watching from home tonight… But [he is] so supportive. And I have friends coming! So many friends.”
