Israeli Model Joins Hadid Sisters on Victoria’s Secret Runway for a Stunning Performance
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show made a grand return on October 15, 2025, in Brooklyn, New York. This year’s event featured an exciting mix of seasoned models and newcomers. Notable attendees included Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Jasmine Tookes. Also onboard this season was Israeli model Daniella Halfon, marking the second consecutive year for an Israeli representative on the prestigious runway.
History of Israeli Models at Victoria’s Secret
Daniella Halfon, aged 22, became a part of this exclusive fashion event following last year’s groundbreaking appearance by Sun Mizrahi. Mizrahi was the first Israeli model to participate in the show’s history.
Daniella Halfon’s Rise
Halfon is represented by ITM modeling agency. Recently, she was selected from a pool of 100 candidates worldwide to photograph a campaign for Kylie Cosmetics. In an interview with Israel Hayom, she shared her experiences as an Israeli model. Despite the challenges, she noted that most reactions are positive. “People mainly want to know what it’s like to live in a place where there’s war,” she said.
Highlight Moments from the Show
The runway was electrified by live performances from popular artists including Madison Beer, Cardi B, Korean group TWICE, and Missy Elliott. The entire show lasted under an hour but packed substantial excitement.
- Jasmine Tookes showcased her pregnancy with a stunning crocheted, sheer dress.
- WNBA star Angel Reese and Olympic gymnast Suni Lee were honored as new “angels,” the first professional athletes to earn wings.
- Bella Hadid debuted with honey-colored hair in the evening’s red section, and her sister Gigi Hadid returned to the runway after a decade.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show remains one of the world’s most coveted platforms for models. The event signifies not just fashion prowess but also the dreams of aspiring models. As the show continues to evolve, it embraces diversity and fresh talent, paving the way for future stars.
