Each year in between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we count down the days until a very merry, special event hits our TV screens: the inimitable Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Started in 1995, the annual show is a dual celebration of the winter holidays in addition to a major promotion for the hugely successful and influential lingerie chain.

Some of the world’s top models have earned their wings walking the stage for this most coveted modeling opportunity. To be invited to participate in this event can supercharge the careers of both newcomers and established models alike.

Always glitzy and packed to the brim with youthful, joyous energy, the 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show did not disappoint. Here’s our picks for some of the best models and looks from this year’s show, which took place a world away in Shanghai.
