First, Ashley Graham\u2014who has now graced the brand\u2019s iconic catwalk for three consecutive years\u2014was the first to chime in with a candid answer that centered on one must-have quality: confidence. \u201cThe secret to nailing a Victoria\u2019s Secret walk is just owning it,\u201d the model shared. \u201cBeing comfortable in your skin, confident, and giving that, like, look to the camera, but also acknowledging everyone around you and just having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Anok Yai\u2014who, like Graham, has walked in the show the last three years, debuting in 2024 after the brand\u2019s hiatus\u2014also weighed in, noting that she perfected her magical walk with \u201ctons of practice, a lot of training,\u201d as well as \u201cfeeling the music\u201d when she hits the catwalk. Finally, Adriana Lima\u2014who returned for her impressive 21st show<\/a> with Victoria\u2019s Secret this year\u2014assured the outlet that a perfect runway walk is all about making it your own and showing \u201cyour own personality.\u201d<\/p>\n

And those weren\u2019t the only insider tips and tricks spilled backstage! Vogue<\/a> also made the rounds to chat with the models ahead of the event, asking several about their pre-show prep<\/a> choices. <\/p>\n

There, the stars of the show discussed their morning routines, meditation rituals and must-have skincare items. Plus, multiple models also confirmed they did, indeed, hit \u201csnooze\u201d on their alarms the morning before the show\u2014which, honestly, is just wildly relatable.<\/p>\n
