This year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, now in its 21st year, featured 51 leggy supermodels performing 82 outfits and 43 pairs of hand-crafted wings. This year, The brand also invited Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and The Weeknd to perform.

Let's start with the runway. This year's Victoria's Secret Show is divided into six major themes, which are:

The violin and cello accompaniment at the beginning of the show was melodious, and then the music style instantly switched to rock mode. The first part of the show, The Road Ahead, was full of exotic flavor, and the opening Chinese dragon echoed the ethnic wind elements with Oriental characteristics, making the series full of mysterious beauty.

Moutain Romance, flexible feather elements, delicate flower patterns, beautiful snowflake wings... ... Bring this series into a fairy tale romance. Chinese supermodel He Sui took to the runway with delicate snowflake wings, looking like a flower fairy dancing in the snow. Lily Donaldson's design is made of more than 2,500 gemstones by hand and took more than 300 hours to create.

Fixed theme PINK Nation, a large number of streamers, large three-dimensional bows with the iconic pink, the sporty girl's lively and playful show quite vivid.

After entering the Secret Angel (Secret girl) segment, the angels are transformed into retro girls from old black and white movies. The giant wings as thin as cicadas seem to take you back to the taste of the old days.

The Dark Angel segment is the most amazing. Seductive half-transparent lace cloaks, huge feathered wings... ... Every look shows the sexy charm of women.

At the end of the "Bright Night Angel" segment, two giant Disco balls were suspended on the runway, and a lot of sequins created a wonderful shadow effect. Among the gorgeous scenes, the Fantasy Bra, the centerpiece of the Victoria's Secret fashion show, finally made its debut on the runway.

The "Bright Night" Fantasy Bra is set with more than 9,000 precious stones, including diamonds and 18-karat emeralds, weighs 450 carats and is worth up to $3 million. It was created by Jasmine Tookes, a black model who was signed as an angel last year.

This year's Swarovski Look features 450,000 Swarovski crystal pendants, 3,000 tassels, each sleeve weighing 8 to 10 pounds (7 to 9 pounds), and see-through boots that are also studded with 1,630 crystals. The gorgeous look was performed by Danish supermodel Josephine Skriver, who signed on as a Victoria's Secret Angel last year.

But backstage at the Victoria's Secret fashion Show, you'll see a much more relaxed side of the angels off the runway, running, laughing and making faces...... After seeing our camera, they naturally gave us a charming smile.

Before the Victoria's Secret fashion Show, the backstage dressing room also brought a glamorous pink look. The much-anticipated return of Liu Wen, who has previously performed five looks on the Victoria's Secret runway, graciously greeted us backstage tonight.

Sui He, who has walked the Victoria's Secret show for the sixth time since 2011, is the Chinese supermodel who has walked the show the most times and also owns the most runway clothes.

Xi, who is now on her fourth Victoria's Secret tour, was the youngest Chinese model when she first appeared.

Ju Xiaowen is the latest Chinese face to walk the Victoria's Secret show this year.

As Bella Hadid made her Victoria's Secret runway debut this year, we asked her what her biggest challenge was about the show. "Smile! Because I'm really bad at smiling for the camera." Bella also told us that in the month leading up to the show, she set up a large mirror in her bedroom and walked in front of it every day to get into the habit of smiling.

Similarly, this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion show will be the first for sisters Gigi and Bella, who have more than 164 million Instagram followers this year, but their combined Instagram followers already account for 33 million. Unfortunately, Karlie Kloss missed this year's Paris show due to work conflicts.

We also got Bella Hadid's diet. During her training, she only ate whole grains and refused to eat anything with additives. Because this not only keeps you in shape, but also promotes skin detoxification.

Gigi Hadid shared with us her favorite boxing workout, where she warms up with a jump rope before each workout, and today you can see a thinner Gigi because she used this method.

Kendall told us her selfie skills, never stick to the Angle, but in terms of makeup, Kendall suggested that you should choose a matte texture to cover the strong base makeup, it can better hide the facial flaws, and must use contourning.

The pink silk pajamas the models wore backstage, this time for the show's move to Paris, also had the word "Paris" printed on the back.

The whole show has 36 beauty stylist, and unlike the general show, the makeup on the Victoria's Secret Angel is more of a modification, although there is no need to deliberately echo the style of clothing, but to present an extremely natural but attractive state, it is also a difficult thing.

The Victoria's Secret supermodels' sexy lips are actually created by matte lip gloss, and they use a total of 100 velvet matte lip gloss in a single show, with an average of two per person.

A total of 51 pieces of mascara were used in one show to create natural, three-dimensional and vivid eye makeup, and this show also used slightly raised eyeliner to create a stunning cat eye effect.

The angels were prepared to go on stage, down to their nails, surrounded by 11 manicurists to create a natural and healthy look.

Supermodels also apply body oil before going on stage to make their skin look more perfect and shiny, and the average supermodel will use a bottle and a half of the body care series.

The classic wave is also the signature style of Victoria's Secret Angels, who have 31 hairstylists and 200 hair tools. In addition to ceramic curling irons, Angels also need a lot of bobby pins to curl their hair to create a more natural effect, and it can also be a good way to decorate the side faces of supermodels. Alessandra Ambrosio, for example, goes for VELATERAPIA, a three-hour treatment that traps moisture by burning split ends with candles, before the Victoria's Secret fashion show.

This year's Fantasy Bra is studded with more than 9,000 gems, while the Swarovski Look has 450,000 crystal pendants that are so dazzling that from backstage, every bra looks gorgeous.

The 2016 Victoria's Secret Show, which was staged at the Grand Palais in Paris, France, has only left the United States three times since 1995. The first was in 2000, when the Victoria's Secret Show moved to Cannes to raise money for AIDS victims and was held at the same time as the Cannes Film Festival. The second was in 2015, when the show moved to London. For the third time in today's show.
