When we heard Karlie Kloss was hanging up her Victoria’s Secret Angel wings for good, we were almost as devastated as when Miranda Kerr flew the coup.

But the announcement that Elsa Hosk has just been named as the newest Angel has cheered us up.

You will recognise the statuesque blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty (not unlike her predecessor) from previous shows.

The 26-year-old has been modelling for the lingerie brand for the past four years, working as serving as a brand ambassador for VS’s younger category, Pink.

But the stunning Swede has been promoted and will now receive her ‘wings’ – an honour bestowed on those blessed with a gene pool us mere mortals can only ever dream of.

Although the company has yet to announce the newest addition to the family, the news was confirmed by Hosk’s agency IMG Models.

Look out Alessandra Ambrosio and Adriana Lima – there’s some stiff competition waiting in the wings (no pun intended) for the coveted Fantasy Bra.
