8 surprises from the 2015 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

After a long wait, the highly-anticipated Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show dazzled us all when it hit New York on Tuesday (10Nov15) – and it was bigger and better than ever.

A lot happened both on and off the catwalk and we take you through the top moments from the glitzy event.

Kendall Jenner’s top-secret advice

Kendall played the social butterfly while backstage with the Angels during her debut. While she admitted to learning lots from watching the bigshots prepare for the catwalk, she remained coy on specifics: “I’m going to keep it a secret!” she said to instyle.com. What a tease!

One toilet for all

That’s right; everyone, from Angels to photographers, had to share one bathroom backstage at the Lexington Avenue Armory venue. Let’s hope there was some organisation to ensure there were no pre-show queues!

Photo ban

Despite the constant selfie-taking backstage, guests in the audience were forbidden from taking any pictures, videos or posting social media updates during the event. That didn’t seem to stop Kris Jenner though, who was caught taking a sneaky pic from the front row while watching daughter Kendall on the catwalk.

Gigi Hadid’s sisterly bonds

Gigi finally landed a part in the famous show this year (15) after unsuccessfully auditioning twice before. And she was in good hands, as she revealed Lily Aldridge and Behati Prinsloo acted like big sisters backstage before the event.

Secret pizza party

With the models practising clean eating in the lead up to the show, we’re not surprised the celebrations afterwards involved food! “Well, there’s an official after party,” Lily Donaldson explained to Britain’s The Telegraph newspaper, “but the really hot ticket is for the pizza party we all throw at a secret location.”

Elsa Hosk got naked

We’re not even talking a little bit naked – Elsa dangled from a curtain backstage, completely in the buff! She was snapped by photographer Russell James, who she joked was getting her in “trouble”.

Sombrero-wearing interview lady

A woman wearing a giant sombrero was spotted whizzing around backstage with a camera and stopped to interview people along the way. Why she was rocking the headpiece we don’t know, but she certainly stood out.

Ellie Goulding missed the final bow

The singer replaced Rihanna last minute but it seemed she got caught up in something, as she failed to show up for the final bow, where fellow singers Selena Gomez and The Weeknd congratulated each other. Luckily Ellie made it in time for the recorded version.
