Which model has walked in the most Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows?

The story behind the answer

Adriana Lima has walked in the most Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows.

The Brazilian model made her Victoria’s Secret runway debut in 1999 and ultimately appeared in 20 editions, more than any of the other models listed here. Her appearances span the original show’s peak years, its final pre-hiatus editions, and the brand’s later return to the runway.

Lima became a Victoria’s Secret Angel in 2000 and built a particularly long association with the company. She missed the 2009 show because of pregnancy, but otherwise maintained an unusually consistent presence across the brand’s major fashion-show era. She also opened the show five times and closed it three times.

Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, and Gisele Bündchen were all prominent Victoria’s Secret models, which makes them plausible alternatives. However, prominence is not the same as total appearances: Lima’s longevity and repeated participation give her the record. Her 2018 walk was presented as a farewell, but she returned to the runway in 2024 and walked again in 2025.
