Kelsey Merritt's dreams have come true: She is now officially the first Filipina to walk for the most coveted lingerie fashion show and is now a certified Victoria's Secret runway model! Kelsey documented her whole experience backstage via IG stories below:

First things first: hair and makeup!


She completed her glamorous look with a spritz of Victoria's Secret Bombshell perfume, naturally!

Afterwards, Kelsey made her way around backstage, snapping fun selfies with fellow VS models like Willow Hand and Josephine Skriver, as well as Josie Canseco and Kelly Gale.


All smiles with Maia Cotton, too!
She hung out with VS legends Behati Prinsloo and Candice Swanepoel, no biggie!

She even met her idol, Adriana Lima!
And she also got a close look at this year's Fantasy Bra, which was worn by VS Angel Elsa Hosk.

Here's Kelsey practicing her VS walk!
Kelsey also met other Filipinos—casting director John David Pfeiffer and model agent Roman Young—making things happen at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show backstage!
