“I’ve been away for a little less than a year, and it’s going to be exciting to be back on the runway,” Candice Swanepoel told Bazaar during her late August Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show fitting. While most women would be frightened to be standing in a room filled with people in just a red halter bra and matching panties—Swanepoel looked as comfortable as ever, and ready to reclaim her coveted wings for her 10th anniversary show.
The South African beauty sat out last year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Paris due to maternity leave—she gave birth to her first child, a son named Anaca, in October of 2016.
However, the 29-year-old supermodel says motherhood hasn’t changed her perspective on her career much—she just has less time, especially when it comes to working out. “When I’m done taking care of him, I try to do a half hour workout every two days, two-three days. That’s been working for me a lot more because I can’t spend hours in the gym… and taking care of him, he’s really heavy, so he’s a workout.”
Watch as Swanepoel gets ready to make her return to the lingerie extravaganza in Shangahi and gets fitted for her look in the “nomadic adventure” section. 
As the show walked yesterday, it seems that Swanepoel traded up for a pair of bigger wings, and her first set went to VS rookie Grace Bol.
