FROM a small underwear presentation in New York in 1995, to the world's biggest fashion extravaganza with a multi-million-dollar budget, the Victoria's Secret show has undergone a transformation over the past 18 years that most designer brands would be proud of.
Despite its humble beginnings - or not so humble, it did start in New York's Plaza Hotel - the show always attracted the biggest model names of the day, which has created an impressive "who's who" of models through the ages in its archive.
From Stephanie Seymour in red rose petals to Naomi Campbell dressed as a boxer (really), and from a fresh-faced Miranda Kerr to several surprise actress additions - the line-up through the ages is truly something to behold.
