Gigi Hadid

Gigi Hadid joined the roster in 2015, and immediately became so associated with the brand that she was part of the big announcement of the fashion show's 2024 return.

Bella Hadid

Bella Hadid joined sister Gigi on the Victoria's Secret runway the following year.

Alessandra Ambrosio

Perhaps the quintessential Victoria's Secret Angel, Alessandra Ambrosio made her baby-faced debut on the runway in 2000 and became one of the brand's biggest names in the years since.

Prinsloo told PEOPLE she couldn't wait to get the gang back together: "Yesterday at rehearsal when I saw Doutzen [Kroes] and Adriana [Lima], Alessandra [Ambrosio], Candice [Swanepoel] ... We don't hang out like we used to anymore."

Irina Shayk

Irina Shayk took her inaugural Victoria's Secret walk in 2016 and had another big debut that night too: She revealed she was six months pregnant!

Adriana Lima

Another newbie in 2000 who quickly earned her wings, Adriana Lima is returning to the Victoria's Secret Runway following her retirement in 2018. "I'm home!" she announced in a video ahead of the big event.

Behati Prinsloo

Behati Prinsloo actually had her rookie year in Miami in 2008, but by the 2009 show she'd already earned her Angel wings.

"This is a true reunion," she told PEOPLE of her return to the runway.

Tyra Banks

Tyra Banks is such a Victoria's Secret OG that her runway debut (in 1996) predates the days of it being a giant international spectacle. They brought her back nearly 30 years later for the announcement that the show would return to TV.

Candice Swanepoel

Candice Swanepoel, decked out in one of the show's more creative ensembles in 2007, has been with Victoria's Secret for nearly 20 years.

Grace Elizabeth

Grace Elizabeth joined the lineup in 2016 as a PINK spokesmodel and graduated to Angel in 2019; she has worked with the brand over the years, including being part of 2023's The Tour, and is returning to the runway tonight.

Jasmine Tookes

Jasmine Tookes made her Victoria's Secret Fashion Show debut in 2012, and returns in 2024 as a new mom.

Barbara Palvin

Barbara Palvin first walked in a sexy Santa getup for the 2012 show; in the years since, she married Dylan Sprouse, who was hilariously captured helping her prep for her runway return.

Taylor Hill

Taylor Hill first walked for PINK in 2014 in London. She returns tonight with a chic pixie — a bold new look for a show that has historically been synonymous with flowing long waves.

Doutzen Kroes

Doutzen Kroes had two looks for her first year in 2005: this polka-dot look with a bell tied to the waist, and a sweet-as-candy ensemble.

Imaan Hammam

Imaan Hammam first hit the runway for the Pink segment in 2014 in London.

Eva Herzigova

Eva Herzigova wore sparkles and feathers for her 1999 Victoria's Secret debut.

Joan Smalls

Joan Smalls first strutted her stuff in 2011, and was snapped backstage with Gigi Hadid getting ready for this year's walk.

Liu Wen

Liu Wen's 2009 debut proved it was sexy to be square.
