Victoria's Secret Holiday Fashion Show 2009

Photos from the fall Victoria's Secret Holiday Fashion Show taped at the Lexington Armory Thursday, Nov. 19, 2009 in New York.

The perennial "angels" theme took a darker turn this year. The fashion show will be broadcast Dec. 1 on ABC.

Miranda Kerr gets a little steampunk with her clockwork butterfly wings.

Marisa Miller makes for a devilish angel.

Heidi Klum looks happy in her natural habitat, the runway.

Don't get ruffled over this outfit.

Alessandra Ambrosio, perhaps draped in luxurious seaweed.

One lingerie collection was based on bird feathers. This design takes its inspiration from peacocks (the male ones, anyway).

Anyone want to guess what bird Doutzen Kroes' outfit is based on?

Miranda Kerr continues the avian motif.

Miranda Kerr is barely there and thanks you for noticing.

Another fine-feathered friend.

Fergie got leggy as the Black Eyed Peas performed.

Fergie shows that she can hold her own against the supermodels.

This one reminds us of an '80s album cover.

All this outfit needs is a pair of roller skates and a mirror ball.

It's a supermodel mashup! Hippie style meets streetwise sweats.

Note the balloon-animal wings on this outfit from the Pink line, a humorous reference to the Angels line. Who knew Victoria's Secret was capable of self-mockery?

Models get flirty while showing off the hippie-themed Pink line.

Peace, love and flat stomachs, y'all.

Other looks were futuristic. Alessandra Ambrosio looks like a character out of "Barbarella."

We're now entering the Lady Gaga portion of the evening. Please, don't wear this to bed.

Looking sharp, like a Jetsons cigarette girl.

We wonder how long it took to practice walking in some of these outfits.

Alessandra Ambrosio combines pink PVC with drafting triangles.
