The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is annual fashion show sponsored by Victoria's Secret, an American brand of lingerie and sleepwear. Victoria's Secret uses the show to promote and market its goods in high-profile settings. The show featured some of the world's leading fashion models, such as Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Barbara Palvin, Behati Prinsloo, Candice Swanepoel, Carla Bruni, Doutzen Kroes, Eva Herzigova, Grace Elizabeth, Jasmine Tookes, Josephine Skriver, Kate Moss, Liu Wen, Taylor Hill, Tyra Banks, and others.
In 2018, Ed Razek, then Chief Marketing Officer of L Brands (the parent company of Victoria’s Secret), gave an interview to Vogue magazine, in which he made controversial statements about the brand’s image. Razek revealed that Victoria’s Secret promoted a highly limited and stereotyped standard of beauty, focused on slim, white women. He admitted that there was a meticulous selection of Black models and that there were internal conflicts over attempts to include plus-size and transgender women in the shows. The negative response to this interview led to the brand losing major supporters and its market relevance that same year.
In 2023, Victoria’s Secret aimed to reshape its image by releasing a documentary highlighting its renewed commitment to inclusion and diversity. Now, in 2024, the brand is set to host the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Brooklyn, New York, on October 15th at 8 PM (7 PM local time in NYC, with a -1 hour difference from Brazil). The event has been promoted as an opportunity for Victoria’s Secret to showcase its efforts to work with plus-size, transgender, and disabled women. Seven models with disabilities, including wheelchair users and visually impaired models, participated in the casting, reflecting the brand’s new inclusive focus.
The 2024 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was hosted in New York City on October 15, 2024. The show featured musical performances from singers Lisa, Tyla and Cher.[1][2]
