50-Year-Old Heidi Klum’s Victoria’s Secret ‘Angel Wings’ Still Fit 14 Years Later

TV personality Heidi Klum was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1998 to 2010, and one of her classic ensembles from the era featured white fluffy angel wings that spanned from head to toe. She recently posed with the prop in a satin white Elenareva dress for the latest cover of Glamor Germany.

She posted various looks from the shoot and behind-the-scenes on her Instagram page with the caption, “Wow, my wings still fit.” Although she disabled comments on the reel, fans expressed their delight with tens of thousands of likes on her posts showing off the gorgeous dress, a two-piece bikini, and a cut-out Maison Valentino mini dress.

Victoria’s Secret paved the way for Heidi Klum

In a recent chat on the Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard podcast, Klum revealed that being a Victoria’s Secret model opened doors for her entertainment career. She became the brand’s show host, anchoring her first in 2002 and then from 2006 to 2009. She recalled being “always super nervous” but seeing her role as an opportunity to “overcome something that was not super easy.”

In 2010, Klum retired her wings and joined America’s Got Talent as a judge three years later until 2019. “They called me and they’re like, ‘actually we’re going to have four judges and we do want you also.’ That’s 10 years ago, and I did 10 seasons,” she recalled. She returned to the talent show in 2020 and just wrapped up season one of America’s Got Talent: Fantasy League.

Heidi turned 50 last June, and she announced her age yet again with one of the posts from her Glamor Germany shoot. She shared a clip of her twirling in white swimwear and the angel wings with the caption, “This is 50. Thank you @morellibrothers for making me feel great. Yes, I’m 50, but I’m far from dead. I just love colorful, loud things. Maybe that will change at some point, but it can also remain my decision,” she told the magazine during her interview.

She also admitted that her “vision is getting worse and worse, and I can no longer see everything so clearly.” “I just accept it—- there’s nothing you can do about it anyway. Should we rack our brains? It is what it is,” she continued. Interestingly, Klum was the first German model to earn angel wings, and she described her time with the lingerie brand as “the best time ever” in 2022.
