MIAMI BEACH, FL - NOVEMBER 15: Recording artist Usher performs as a model walks the runaway during the 2008 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show at the Fontainebleau on November 15, 2008 in Miami Beach, Florida.

 

Alessandra Ambrosio returneth! The focus of this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion show was "glamour, sophistication and the return to elegance," said chief costume designer, Todd Thomas. The annual glitter-and-flesh fest was filmed Saturday at the newly renovated Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami. Usher performed twice. Former Victoria's Secret Fashion Show performer Seal watched from the audience as his wife, Heidi Klum, walked the runway three times, flirted with Usher, stole Usher's fedora, and managed not to knock the other models down with a giant sequined bow strapped to her back. Adriana Lima modeled the $5 million, 1,500-karat bra and Alessandra Ambrosio strapped on some giant wings for a strut. She had a baby three months ago, but of course you'd never be able to tell since her body looks perfect. The show airs December 3 on CBS, but you can see the sophistication and elegance for yourself right now in the slideshow.
