Fashion designer Marc Jacobs created The Marc Jacobs Stam, a bag inspired by and named after her. For the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2006 she opened the fourth runway theme "Pink". The appearance also included a featurette showing a Victoria's Secret commercial shoot and what a model sees when walking the runway.

She has said the Paris runways are her favorite to walk: "It's the most beautiful city and I have friends who live here. Plus, by this point all the models have been together for a month so we're all pretty close. And of course, there's a glimpse of the end!"6
