Maria Borges, Candice Swanepoel, Leila Ndabirabe & More! Meet Victoria’s Secrets’ African Angels [Photos]

2015 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - BellaNaija - November2015005

Maria has a few titles to her name, including being named the Forbes Africa Magazine‘s Top Model of 2013. She has been walking for Victoria’s Secret since 2013, but made history at the 2015 show by becoming the first model ever to walk a Victoria’s Secret fashion show with natural Afro hair. How amazing is that?

Candice Swanepoel
Candice has got to be one of the most popular African models of our time.
Born and raised in Mooi River, South Africa, to an African family of Dutch descent, Candice was scouted to become a model at the age of 17 in a Durban flea market.
She speaks 3 languages – Afrikaans, English and Portuguese, and is engaged to Brazilian male model, Herman Nicoli (Whom she’s been dating since she was 17). When she’s not rocking the runway, you’ll find her hanging with fellow model pals – Behati Prinsloo and Rosie Hutington-Whiteley.

Her 2nd look was all about geometry! We loved the asymmetrical paneling on the lingerie, and the lace-up definitely adds some sex appeal.
