The star-studded night will feature VS angels (models) donning elaborate lingerie and walking down the runway while top musical icons perform - previous acts include Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift. In particular, people look forward to seeing the exquisite fantasy bra - this year it's the '2017 Champagne Nights Fantasy Bra' that's decorated with 6,000 precious stones and 18K gold, totalling a cool $2 million. VS Angel Lais Ribeiro will have the honor of flaunting it down the runway. Asian models on the rise This year, expect to also see more Asian faces on the runway, double from last year in fact. From popular names like Liu Wen and Sui He to new additions like Estelle Chen, here's all you need to know about these gorgeous VS angels. Liu Wen The 29 year-old has become known for being China's first supermodel and being the first Asian model on the cover of American Vogue. In 2009, she also proved that Asian models could be part of the VS Fashion Show. To date, she has walked for five shows, with this year being her sixth. Sui He Making her debut at a VS show in 2011, Sui He is the second Asian model to have graced the runway and has been walking in every show since. The Wenzhou native was also the first Chinese model to become the face of Japanese beauty brand, Shiseido. Xin Xei As a relatively new face to the industry, this would be Xin Xei's first VS show. The 22 year-old has made quite the splash nonetheless walking for Miu Miu Resort 2016 and appearing in editorials for Vogue China and Vogue Middle East. Estelle Chen Despite this being her first foray into the Victoria's Secret world, 19 year-old Estelle Chen has walked multiple runways - from Dior to Louis Vuitton, Kenzo and Miu Miu. The Paris-born model is also known for speaking out about the need for greater Asian representation in the fashion industry. MingXi At 28 years old, this would be Ming Xi's fifth appearance at the VS fashion show. She first made her debut at the Givenchy haute couture show in 2010 and has since walked runways for various fashion houses including Chanel, Dior, Jason Wu and Tom Ford. Xiao Wen Ju After a chance discovery on the internet by IMG Model Management back in 2010, Xiao Wen Ju is now no stranger to the runway. From Prada to Tory Burch and Louis Vuitton, the 28 year-old model has become quite the familiar face. She is also known for being the first Chinese model to be the face of Marc Jacobs. Shu Pei While her first and only VS fashion show was in 2012, that's not to say she's been off the radar. To date, Shu Pei has walked for Versace, Gucci, Burberry, Chanel and Dior, and became the spokesperson for Maybelline. Now she's back to take the VS runway by storm.
