Her sister Gigi Hadid took to Twitter last week to reveal she would not be attending the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show this year, amid speculation she was refused a visa.
And Bella Hadid was keen on continuing the show for the two of them, as she strutted her stuff down the eagerly anticipated 22nd annual runway show in an array of skimpy ensembles at the Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai, China on Monday.
While the 21-year-old supermodel, who made her VS debut last year, commanded attention as she showcased her taut figure in the saucy looks, she accidentally suffered a nipple slick in her perilously plunging white lingerie set.

Bella continued to prove she had the career most wannabe models could only dream of as she headed down the runway, while being serenaded by the likes of Harry Styles, Miguel, Jane Zhang and Leslie Odom Jr.
With her years of catwalk knowledge under her belt, the beauty – full name Isabella Khair Hadid – got off to a sensational start as she strutted along in a skimpy black lingerie set before channelling Grecian vibes with a lilac coloured look.
Complementing the plume of feathers she wore with her first ensemble, which drew attention to her impeccably toned stomach and ample cleavage, the brunette donned a pair of paisley print long gloves as well as colourful heels and eye-catching striped socks.
Despite being without her sister, Gigi for the event – who pulled out of the event last week amid claims she has been banned from entering China – Bella looked in high spirits as she was seen uncharacteristically smiling.

The model, 22, took to Twitter on Thursday morning to reveal that she would not be travelling to China to do the show, however she failed to explain the reason behind the decision – prompting much speculation that she had been refused a visa after a video surfaced of her earlier this year in which she appeared to ‘mock Asian people’.
‘I’m so bummed I won’t be able to make it to China this year,’ she wrote. ‘Love my VS family, and will be with all my girls in spirit!! Can’t wait to tune in with everyone to see the beautiful show I know it will be, and already can’t wait for next year!’
In September, furious Chinese people warned the supermodel not to attend this year’s show in Shangai, leaving thousands of angry comments calling for the brand, and the country, to boycott Gigi.
The model did not specifically reveal why she pulled out of the show, although it was recently reported that some models were having trouble getting their Chinese visas approved.
