Some actresses might not be comfortable with the amount of nudity required by a show like Outlander, which is forever putting its star-crossed lovers in sexy, bodice-ripping situations. But most actresses didn’t get practice putting almost everything on display by strutting their stuff in the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, like Caitriona Balfe did. (Okay, Tyra Banks, we guess we can count we remember Life Size.)

Balfe recently revealed that her modeling career prepared her for being in a near-constant state of undress on the show, telling the New York Post, “Maybe some of my background prepared me. I’m so used to stripping off in a room of 30 people … and I think the fact that I’m out of my 20s helps. I’m just much more sure of who I am.”

And we’re sure that we’re thrilled to have tracked her down on the Victoria’s Secret runway in 2002, wearing a rather scandalous lace teddy with ribbon adornments and long, flowing sleeves (why do we feel like Jamie would love this on Claire? It’s got that 17th century Scotland vibe, we guess). Clear heels and a knowing smirk complete her VS vibe. (The 10 new Angels could definitely take some pointers from Balfe.)
Loving her look? Think she should bring it back?
