In April 2015, Victoria's Secret announced its newest lineup of "angels."
These 10 women would be the faces — and bodies — of the iconic lingerie company.
One of these women is Elsa Hosk, a gorgeous 26-year-old Swedish model who has been making a name for herself for the past few years as one of the faces of Victoria's Secret's younger brand, PINK. But now, she's in a whole new class.
Not every model ascends to this level of recognition, but Elsa did — and we're only going to be seeing more of her in the years to come.
Elsa is a pro now, but every supermodel has to start out somewhere. She has said she first started visiting modeling agencies when she was 13 years old — so her career has been more than a decade in the making.

But she had another passion: basketball.

She balanced modeling with basketball, which was no easy feat. "I played on a professional level until I was 17," she told Ground Mag. "Combined with school and modeling, it was a lot of work – but I loved it."
