Ashley Graham is ехс itеd for representation as she makes her Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show debut
The model tells PEOPLE that she wanted to be a part of this year’s show so she could represent curvy girls.
Ashley Graham is making her mark.
The model, 36, strutted the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway for the first time on Oct. 15, showing off her model walk in a sparkly bodysuit,
sheer robe and gold flower-embellished wings. The supermodel ascended to the stage as Lisa sang an angelic version of «Moonlit Floor.»
«I am feeling really excited,» Graham told PEOPLE ahead of the show. «I’m not nervous, and everything’s very secure, we’re not going to have anything pop out,
which makes me feel good so I can strut it, and I’m honestly more excited just for the full representation that’s going to happen during the show.»
Graham joked earlier in the day that before she landed on her look, the brand gave her something on the small side — and she asked for a swap.
«The first thing they gave me was this tiny, tiny little underwear, and I said, ‘Hello, I just had three children,'» she told PEOPLE exclusively.
«Even though it was like two years ago, but I was like, ‘Is there any more we can put on?’ So then I got a bodysuit and I feel really sexy in it, and then when the wings came out, that’s when I was like, ‘Oh yeah, I feel like an Angel. This is hot.'»
