Candice Swanepoel hasn't appeared on the Victoria's Secret catwalk for six years – but she made a triumphant return on Tuesday night.
The 35-year-old was one of many stunning 'Angels' who graced the runway for the return of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York City, and she certainly left a lasting impression.
Candice's appearance has changed dramatically over the years, and she looked so different in her latest runway walk.

Candice has never admitted to going under the knife and her chiseled features have no doubt been enhanced with clever contouring tricks.
However, she has tried several "cosmetic procedures" in the past to help keep her skin looking youthful.
"I've tried a couple of things," she previously told UBeauty. "There is no miracle procedure, in my opinion, but I do find laser procedures to be preventative and help the skin from aging.

When it comes to her diet, Candice listens to her body. "I don't stick to a specific diet. I eat whatever my body needs or craves," she admitted.

Sharing her typical daily diet, the mom-of-two explained: "If I am home with my children, we love to switch breakfasts up: some days eggs, some days pancakes.

As for exercise, Candice prefers light weights to maintain her curves.

"My goals when working out are to build on my foundation. I am naturally extremely thin, so I need to add weights to keep my curves, which is how I feel my best and most beautiful.

She added: "I also work out just for the mental strength. If I am overwhelmed, I feel working out helps me to feel mentally stronger, too."
