Alessandra Ambrosio sizzles at VS Show in Shanghai

Speculation has been mounting that her appearance on this year’s VS runway would be her last.

Putting the rumours to one side, Alessandra Ambrosio, 36, proved exactly why she has sustained her wings for 17 years as she showcased her sensational figure walking in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Shanghai, China.

The Brazilian beauty – who starred in her first runway show for the lingerie brand when she was just 19 – highlighted her statuesque figure as she displayed her signature strut alongside fellow Angel Lily Aldridge.

Mother-of-two Alessandra was sure to turn heads as she slipped into sizzling red two-piece which highlighted her ample cleavage and taut stomach.

Offsetting her plunging bra, she slipped on a pair of equally racy boy-cut pants that flaunted her gym-honed thighs while she walked down the runway in her Aztec-inspired heeled boots with colourful fringe detailing.

Adding to her colourful appearance, she worked a statement neck-piece with a number of layered necklaces, many beaded arm cuffs and oversized matching hooped earrings.

Since then, she’s soared to become one of the biggest names modelling for the lingerie brand.  

And her work has clearly paid off, as Alessandra has worn the coveted Fantasy Bra not once but twice.  The first time was in 2012 when Alessandra walked down the runway wearing a $2.5 million bra.   

Two years later, she shared the stage alongside Adriana Lima as they both wore their very own $2 million Fantasy Bra.

Alessandra is currently in Shanghai with the other VS models and has been updating fans on her journey via social media. 

Alessandra didn’t address any exit rumor on her social media accounts.

The most recent Instagram post from the model was of her posing in front of a Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Shanghai 2017 sign.
