The Complete Collection of Victoria's Secret Angel Selfies

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Assemble forty-seven models, two $2 million bras, hair, makeup, and Taylor Swift in a room, and selfies are bound to flourish. Some Angels bend, extend and twist their arms to get the perfect shot. Others get their beauty team involved, while most grab a fellow model to share the squared Insta-frame. Observe Victoria's Secret Angels in their natural habitat:
