"It's crazy, once you step on the runway everything kind of falls away and you're just like enjoying the moment and welcome the music and it makes you feel so powerful because we always have those great artists. I don't know, I can't even describe it, but it feels amazing."
The angel will wear black feather wings in the show's nomadic adventure section and was fitted for her outfit in New York before heading to Asia for the annual event.
