Alessandra Ambrosio continues to say her goodbyes after walking her 17th and last Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on Monday. After posting an emotional parting message to the brand yesterday, the 36-year-old model paid a short and sweet tribute to her fellow VS Angel, Adriana Lima.
Ambrosio posted a photo of her and Lima on her Instagram story last night from this year's fashion show and wrote: "It was an honor to share so many special moments on the runway with you @adrianalima! Love u 😘"
Surely enough, the two have shared plenty of memorable moments on the VS catwalk together, like this sultry, black lingerie twinning moment in 2014:
And this epic strut, with coordinating Fantasy Bras, in the same year:
There was this adorable heart hands pose in 2011:
And this runway candid in 2010:
They posed for this cute backstage pic in 2006:
And they even got serious during rehearsal together back in 2002:
Lima walked her first Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 1999, and Ambrosio made her debut the year after. Since then, the pair has essentially become synonymous with the lingerie brand.
Though Ambrosio is hanging up her wings to focus on her swim line and pursue an acting career, Lima still plans to hit the VS runway for a couple more years. The model, who's walked 18 shows, wants to squeeze in two more before retiring.
"I plan to be at 20. Two more years. Maybe more, I don't know," Lima told People. "It's nature. I'm working out, I'm being healthy, so let's see how the body is going to turn out. But I enjoy it. So let's say 20."
