The much-anticipated Victoria's Secret Fashion Show has been around since 1995. It has been held in New York, Cannes, Paris, Los Angeles, Miami, London, and Shanghai. Every year, 20 to 40 models walk its runway. The famous faces who have established and boosted their modeling careers through the VSFS include Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bündchen, Karolina Kurkova, Adriana Lima, Miranda Kerr, Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, and Lily Aldrige, among many others. Because of how much-publicized this extravaganza is, it has become the dream of fashion models the world over to become a Victoria's Secret Angel, get their own wings, and spread them awe-inspiringly on the runway.
Kelsey Merritt has the same dream, and she may achieve it soon!
She first attended the VSFS casting at Victoria's Secret's office in New York wearing a white-on-white ensemble of a tube top and jeans, accessorized with a classic Chanel bag. She wore her hair in a gorgeous curly style, done for her by hairstylist Martin-Christopher Harper.

A few days later, Kelsey got a callback at the lingerie brand's headquarters in NYC. For her second time at the Victoria's Secret office, she stuck to a clean and chic attire, donning black and white separates—a white halter top and black mini skirt, worn with a pair of black ankle-strapped heels and accessorized with a black Celine bag. Her hair was styled by Martin-Christopher with loose beachy waves.
On Instagram Stories, Kelsey documented this incredible opportunity, sharing that her boyfriend, Olympic gold medalist Conor Dwyer, was there to support her.
