It's one of the most highly-anticipated - and expensive - fashion extravaganzas of the year, and last night the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show celebrated its 20th anniversary in style.

With just 44 models making it through the rigorous rounds of audition call-backs, 10 new Angels also gained their wings.

And while the return of brand favourites Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio and Candice Swanepoel was guaranteed to win the approval of long-serving supporters, the brand welcomed a new brigade of fans with the addition of generation-Instagram stars Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner.

Showing no sign of nerves, the pair drew on their previous runway experience as they stepped out onto the runway to huge cheers from the celebrity-packed audience.

Gigi danced down the runway with good friend - and show-performer - Selena Gomez, while Kendall held her peacock-blue cape out to catch the wind dramatically as she walked.

Opening the show for the second year in a row was Behati Prinsloo, while last year's Fantasy Bra star Alessandra Ambrosio, 34, followed just after.

This year's Fantasy Bra, worth a cool $2million and boasting 6,500 precious stones, was worn by seasoned-walker Lily Aldridge.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show airs December 8 on CBS. UK air date is yet to be confirmed.
