Gisele, Adriana and co sizzle in red hot Victoria's Secret backstage shots
The Victoria's Secret catwalk show is undeniably the sexiest event in the fashion calender.
The world's biggest supermodels, including Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks, Helena Christensen, Stephanie Seymour and Gisele Bundchen, have graced the U.S. underwear firm's catwalk over the last 10 years.
The shows aren't just stunning women strutting up and down the catwalk in their underwear - the event is a big-budget extravaganza featuring live music from top artists and flamboyant accessories, including angel and bird wings.
Sizzling: The world's top paid supermodel Gisele Bundchen strikes an alluring pose in her garter, stockings and bolero.
The last show saw the reformed Spice Girls take to the stage in Roberto Cavalli gowns and one of the Victoria's Secret 'Angels' Heidi Klum duet with husband Seal.
In these stunning pictures, we take you backstage at the world's sexiest show.
The photos include Brazilian Bundchen, the world's highest paid supermodel, pose in a transparent black lingerie ensemble, including a garter belt, stockings and bra.
