One of the most popular events in fashion, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show has been one of the most revered runways shows in history. The first ever runway extravaganza by Victoria's Secret started all the way back in 1995 in New York City and the brand hasn't looked back since. Through the years it's been credited with turning models like Gisele Bundchen, Tyra Banks, Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr, and Adriana Lima into household names. However, being around for 23 runway shows cannot be easy — it comes with its own hits and misses.
