Fifty-one of the world's most sought-after models took to the runway at the Grand Palais in Paris on Wednesday for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2016.
The multi-million dollar line-up included 21-year-olds Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, who both returned to the show for a second year, while Hadid's younger sister Bella, 20, made her walking debut alongside the likes of VS veterans Alessandra Ambrosio, 35, and Behati Prinsloo, 28.
One of the most covered-up people to take to the glitter-strewn catwalk was Irina Shayk, 30, who is rumoured to be expecting her first child with boyfriend, Bradley Cooper.
The Russian did nothing to allay whispers that she was with child when she concealed her stomach for both runway appearances with a trench coat and a red fringe robe.

Performing at the 20th anniversary show were Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and The Weeknd, 26, who had a rather awkward encounter with his underwear-clad ex-girlfriend, Bella, who he reportedly split from in the last few weeks.
As the Canadian singer, real name Abel Tesfaye, belted out Starboy he turned to serenade her as she sauntered past in a grey lace teddy with matching sheer cloak (let's face it, how every ex-girlfriend dreams of bumping into her former significant other).
However, it was reported, "she didn't return his coy glances instead looked coolly straight ahead."
"You are in my way, please move," she probably did not tell him as she sashayed past.

There was plenty of eye-catching lingerie on display throughout the show's six themed sections: Road Ahead, Mountain Romance, Pink Nation, Secret Angel, Dark Angel and Bright Night Angel.
With 2014 revenue estimated at $9.7 billion, money is clearly no object when a $4million emerald and diamond encrusted Fantasy Bra worn by Jasmine Tookes, 25, steals the show. She was passed on the honour from Lily Aldridge, 31, who wore it last year in New York City.

Australia was represented by Perth-born Bridget Malcolm, 25, who said she was "beyond thankful" for the opportunity to walk in the show for a second year in a row, while it was third-time lucky for Swedish-Australian model, Kelly Gale, 21.
Malcolm wore VS's Pink range exclusively - think cheerleader-chic with knee-high socks, letterman jackets and crop tops, while Gale swanned out in a grey two-piece with feather embellishments.

Merivale millionaire Justin Hemmes also had a connection to "the most watched fashion show in the world" when his partner Kate Fowler's sister made her debut.
Georgia Fowler from Auckland, New Zealand, daughter of professional golfer, Peter "Chook" Fowler, said she was "living the dream" and also gave a shout-out to her mum and dad who flew to Paris to be her "biggest fans".
What do the models do once the catwalk wraps? Party.
"I'm planning to let loose and have some champagne and dance," Tookes told the Telegraph.co.uk. "It's going to be good."
But for Jenner, after "training like an angel" for all of those weeks, there was only one thing on her mind post-show.
"Burger please," she wrote on Instagram.
You can watch the show on December 5 in the US and December 8 in Australia on Channel Nine.
