What’s new is her leap into fashion. The 2025 Victoria’s Secret show marked her runway debut — a symbolic move from athletic champion to a model embracing new roles.
The Look: Sporty Meets Statement
Representing Victoria’s Secret’s PINK line, Lee’s outfit leaned into athletic minimalism — while still making a statement.
Her ensemble included:
-
A pink sports bra featuring “PINK” lettering in silver
-
Black short shorts
-
A pink zip-up hoodie with feathered angel wings on the back
-
Silver hoop earrings and sparkly silver heels
-
Sleek straight hair, flushed cheeks, and purple shimmer eyeshadow.

In her remarks, Lee described the opportunity as stepping out of her comfort zone. Yet, she also framed it as powerful:
