More than 50 top models jetted off to Shanghai, China, for the eagerly awaited Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which will be broadcast on US TV network CBS, November 28. Seductive lingerie, spectacular stage attire and the traditional angel wings graced some of the world's most beautiful women for a fashion show that oozes glamour. American model Grace Elizabeth walked the show for the second consecutive year. Here's some background on the young rising star.
Early days
Although her career is already well underway, Grace Elizabeth is still something of a newbie in the world of modeling. The American model, from Lake City, Florida, signed her first modeling contract with Next Model Management and was soon picked by brands like Polo Ralph Lauren and, above all, Guess, for whom she became a "Guess Girl" in 2015. In just two years, the brunette has already managed to break through onto runways and into advertising campaigns.
Social media presence
Although the 20-year-old model only made her modeling breakthrough in 2015, Grace Elizabeth already has more than 370,000 followers on Instagram (@lovegrace_e). Each one of her posts -- generally themed on fashion -- gets tens of thousands of "likes" and hundreds of comments. This is currently her only verified social media account, via which she shares highlights from her life as a model.
Shows and campaigns
Unlike many top models, Grace Elizabeth broke into the modeling world through ad campaigns rather than the runway. She certainly started off big -- being named a "Guess Girl," like Gigi Hadid -- before following through with campaigns for Matthew Williamson, Topshop Unique, AllSaints, Polo Ralph Lauren and, more recently, Max Mara and Zara. The upcoming model is now all over the runways too. For the spring/summer 2018 season, she was picked by Chanel, Missoni, Bottega Veneta, Versace, Etro, Moschino, Fendi and Michael Kors, among others. And her rise to fame is by no means over yet.
Grace Elizabeth and Victoria's Secret
Despite her young age, the American model is already on her second Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Signed up for the first time in 2016, like Bella Hadid, she made her debut appearance for the brand in Paris. At the beginning of 2017, she was also named the new face of Victoria's Secret Pink. "I'm so honored to be walking in my second VSFS! This was one of the most magical moments of my life," said Grace Elizabeth after learning she was picked for the 2017 show.
