Candice Swanepoel Unleashes Her Wild Side in Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy Rome Campaign
Candice Swanepoel just reminded the world why she was always the Angel that made grown men forget their own names. The South African bombshell is back in black, lace, and leopard for Victoria’s Secret Very Sexy Collection Summer 2026 – and this time she brought Rome to its knees.
Photographed by Carlijn Jacobs under the creative eye of Adam Selman, Candice prowls across ancient Roman rooftops like she owns every stone. The campaign drops her into the heart of the Eternal City, and she wears it better than the Colosseum ever did. One minute she’s wrapped head-to-toe in leopard print – bra, thong, thigh-highs, even a silk scarf knotted around her blonde waves like a movie star hiding from the paparazzi. The next she’s waist-deep in fountain water, dripping wet in a sheer black lace bustier that leaves almost nothing to the imagination.
That leopard set is the killer. The push-up bra lifts and shapes like a work of art. The high-cut thong rides her hips just right, showing off those toned abs and that impossible waist. Sheer stockings with thick brown bands grip her thighs, and when she squats low on the stone railing, legs spread, gaze locked on the lens with those piercing blue eyes, the temperature spikes. She throws a sheer leopard robe over her shoulders and lets it slide down, teasing what’s underneath without ever giving it all away.
Then there’s the water work. Black and white frames show Candice in a structured lace corset, boning visible through transparent panels, a massive crystal choker catching light at her throat. Her hair is soaked, slicked back or blown across her face in wet strands. She stands in a fountain, ancient stone crumbling behind her, water cascading over her shoulders and down her chest. The lace clings to her skin. She lifts both arms, hands tangled in her hair, pushing her chest forward, every muscle in her stomach tight and defined. It’s not just sexy – it’s cinematic.
Candice also descends a grand marble staircase in a sheer black maxi slip dress that flows like liquid sin. Long lace gloves creep past her elbows. A black headscarf frames her face. The dress is cut deep, sheer panels flashing the lingerie beneath as she moves. One heel lifted, one hand on the iron railing, her shadow stretches up the warm marble wall beneath a domed ceiling that looks like it belongs in a palace.
And when she poses with fellow models Abby Champion and Anok Yai on that rooftop at golden hour? Forget it. Three women, three different energies, all lethal. Candice plays with her blonde waves, body angled to show off every line, hip bones catching the light, that flat stomach on full display while the Roman sky burns blue and gold behind them.
Victoria’s Secret called this collection their “Roman Empire.” After seeing Candice Swanepoel conquer it, nobody’s arguing.
