How I Met Your Mother actress Adriana Lima has been turning heads ever since she became a Victoria’s Secret Angel in 2000.
And — as if we needed any more reason to believe it — amfAR New York Gala in February 2016 proved it.

9 years earlier, she starred as herself in “The Yips,” the 10th episode of How I Met Your Mother’s third season.
In the episode that aired on November 26, 2007, Adriana Lima plays herself at a Victoria’s Secret after-party.

Heidi Klum, Marisa Miller, Miranda Kerr, Selita Ebanks, and Alessandra Ambrosio also make cameos in the same episode that tells the story about how Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris) lost his virginity.
At the 18th annual amfAR New York Gala, the Brazilian model flaunted her best assets, particularly her long legs and ample cleavage, in a red hot gown from Marchesa’s Pre-Fall 2016 collection.

Adriana oozed sex appeal in the floor-sweeping strapless number that featured a dangerously high thigh split and a sweetheart neckline — detailed with lace and red crystals — that drew further attention to her bust.

The risqué frock also featured an open back design and an oversized bow that helped accentuate her model backside.

The mom-of-two accessorized with a pair of drop earrings and a statement ring. She sported sexy smoky eye makeup and wore her dark locks back into a sleek ponytail with a sculpted bow to match her dress.

Adriana showed off her tattooed feet in a pair of sandals by Marchesa. These shoes — called the “Margaret” – are part of the luxury fashion label’s first-ever shoe line, which debuted for the brand’s Spring 2016 collection.
