While Kate Moss’s appearance in a black lace dress and trademark angel wings was unexpected, a few familiar faces made their runway returns.
Gigi and Bella Hadid showcased a number of looks including matching red lingerie, with fan favourites Barbara Palvin and Candice Swanepoel also walking.
Former America’s Next Top Model host Tyra Banks, 50, appeared at the event for the first time since 2009.
Another model to make her return was Adriana Lima, who walked in 2018 before the show was scrapped.
Reaction to this year’s show has been mixed, with Harper’s Bazaar’s Dani Maher, external writing: “Were there any moments burned into my brain with similar urgency [to previous shows]? I’m not so sure.”
The event’s executive producer Janie Schaffer highlighted its diversity, saying there were 50 models from 25 different countries.
But Maher wrote that despite this, “the runway was still overwhelmingly dominated by thin conventionally attractive models”.
This was echoed by Teen Vogue associate editor Aiyana Ishmael, external, who wrote: “As I watched thin model after thin model take the runway, I was catapulted right back to my childhood living room, watching women who didn’t look like me set a beauty standard most women will never meet.”
