Watch: Heidi Klum shares throwback from first Victoria’s Secret show [video]
Model, television host and America’s Got Talent judge Heidi Klum shared a throwback video on Instagram earlier this week, a nod to her days rehearsing for her first Victoria’s Secret fashion show.
Klum began her career as a model in the late 1990s and hosted the 2002, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows. A recap of her time on the runway between 1997 and 2009 can be seen here.
Heidi Klum’s time at Victoria’s Secret
Her first fashion show with Victoria’s Secret took place in 1997 and she became a VS Angel two years later. By then, Klum was known as “The Body”. She left the company in October 2010.
Klum explained on Instagram that the video was taken while she was rehearsing in her apartment the night before very first Victoria’s Secret show. In the clip, she can be seen strutting toward the camera wearing lingerie.
She can also be seen doing a few slow turns to show off the garments. Later, she pulls off a robe off and lets it fall off her shoulders before strutting away, still holding it at her side.

Klum also recently posed with her 16-year-old daughter, Leni – born Helene Boshoven Samuel. Heidi wore a red hoodie while Leni opted for a black top. She captioned the image:
“No retouching, no filter, all natural”.
The shared four selfies, and one showed them pulling faces at the camera. Leni’s resemblance to her mother soon had tabloids referring to her as Klums “mini-me”, or “twin”.
Leni’s modelling career
The posting followed after Klum said how proud she was of Leni for making her modelling debut, which led to her lining up additional runway slots. She also appeared on the cover of several magazines.
Klum said Leni’s “been doing fantastic” and added that the teenager wanted “to model for quite some time”. The proud mother finally agreed, explaining that Leni was old enough.
“She opened Berlin Fashion Week where I saw her walk for the first time, in heels like as a real fashion model. It’s mindblowing to me to watch her work, especially the first thing I did together with her and now she’s doing things by herself, even though I go to the set”.
