Candice Swanepoel Dazzles in Black Lace and Sheer Drama at Victoria’s Secret 2025
Candice Swanepoel wows in black lace lingerie and a flowing sheer train at the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York.
On October 15, 2025, Candice Swanepoel returned to the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway in New York City, delivering a moment of pure runway allure. Embodying the brand’s signature fusion of sensuality, glamour, and confidence, the South African supermodel captivated the audience with a look that balanced darkness and delicacy.
Swanepoel wore a black lace lingerie ensemble featuring the Victoria’s Secret Lace Lightly Lined Classic Coverage Demi Bra and Twinkle Strap Lace Brazilian Panty, styled with Crystal Logo Thigh Highs. The outfit showcased meticulous craftsmanship — intricate lace panels, subtle shimmer detailing, and sculptural lines that accentuated her silhouette.
Adding high-drama to the look, Candice wore long lace gloves and a flowing sheer black train that trailed behind her with every stride. The train moved like smoke, adding cinematic depth to her walk and transforming the lingerie look into a full-fledged fashion moment. Her Rene Caovilla patent leather sandals, gleaming under the spotlight, provided a polished finish that elevated the ensemble’s opulent tone.
This appearance followed her earlier bronze-winged look from the same show — a statement of ethereal power and elegance that she seamlessly transitioned into this darker, more seductive aesthetic. Together, the two looks underscored Swanepoel’s versatility and enduring reign as one of Victoria’s Secret’s most iconic Angels.
In the context of the show’s renewed creative direction, Candice’s black lace moment encapsulated the modern revival of lingerie as performance couture — blending artistry, confidence, and empowerment. Each detail, from the sheer train to the high-shine heels, reminded audiences why she remains the epitome of the Victoria’s Secret legacy.
