Alessandra Ambrosio, who has been a Victoria's Secret Angel since 2000, is ending her career on the iconic runway according to a farewell Instagram post. While we don't know what the future will hold (or whether she'll continue posing for the brand's campaigns and commercials), we do know she stepped out with a strong strut at this year's show in Shanghai.

Alessandra helped debut items from the brand's collaboration with Balmain for her first look. She's part of the Balmain Army, and she supported creative director Olivier Rousteing backstage before the show. Later, Alessandra slipped into a vibrant outfit complete with beaded necklaces, braided arm cuffs, chunky bangles, and artsy thigh-high boots. Read on to take in her final moments at the much-anticipated Victoria's Secret extravaganza, and read what Lily Aldridge had to say about walking in the show with her.

"Dream to walk to @Victoriassecret runway with one of my best friends @alessandraambrosio. Love you Ale," Lily Aldridge wrote on Instagram.

"Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have been working for this amazing brand that inspires me and women all over the world. In my wildest dreams I would have never imagined doing 17 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows. Thank you Ed, and all my Victoria’s Secret family for making these memories unforgettable. Last night was so emotional to say goodbye to my #angel sisters but we put on the biggest and best show ever. I could not have done this without all the love and support from my fans. It gives me great pride to be part the Victoria’s Secret movement! I will always be cheering for you! Love you forever," Alessandra posted to her feed.
