Victoria's Secret model Erin Heatherton came to an unveiling in Skokie--and it's not what some people may think.

On Wednesday night, she made a stop at the Westfield Old Orchard Mall store, where a long line of fans and surprised customers waited to get their photograph taken with Heatherton and her flashy studded boxing gloves.

The fighting attire was part of the unveiling for a new sportswear line called VSX Sexy Sport. Amidst the media frenzy, Heatherton told the crowd, "It’s a huge honor to come to work in the mall I grew up in.”

She added seconds later that it was “a beautiful feeling to be back with people I used to work with.”

Heatherton shared that her favorite music is “anything high energy” but when it comes to her favorite workout exercise: “Yoga is the healthiest.” The 5-foot-11 Skokie native said yoga won out because “I need to stretch out all of my muscles.”

Many fans left satisfied with autographs and photographs, while some were just excited to be able to catch a glimpse of the 22-year-old blond beauty.
