Victoria’s Secret is relaunching its iconic fashion show after a five-year break, aiming to rekindle excitement with updates to its original format. Following the 2023 special, Victoria’s Secret: The Tour, the lingerie brand is returning to the traditional fashion show but promises a more modern approach.
Here’s a preview of what to expect in this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, including top models and performers. Viewers can watch live on October 15 at 7 p.m. ET on Amazon Live, Prime Video, and Victoria’s Secret’s social channels, with a red carpet pre-show hosted by Olivia Culpo and TikToker Tefi Pessoa at 6:30 p.m. ET. The show will also be available on YouTube after the livestream.
Returning to the runway are Victoria’s Secret veterans like Tyra Banks, Gigi Hadid, and Adriana Lima, joined by debut model Carla Bruni, 56. This year’s performers include music legend Cher, Tyla, and K-pop star Lisa, marking the first all-female musical lineup for the event. Tyla shared her excitement, saying, “I’m performing alongside my friend Lisa and the legend Cher!! Just us girls! It’s a special night young Tyla would have dreamed of.”
In 2019, Victoria’s Secret halted its network TV broadcast of the fashion show after nearly two decades due to declining ratings and criticism over its lack of diversity. The brand has since revamped its leadership and model lineup, collaborating with advocates like Priyanka Chopra and Megan Rapinoe to embrace a more inclusive ethos.
“We’ve read the comments and heard you,” Victoria’s Secret posted on Instagram. “The show is back, representing who we are today, along with everything you loved—the glamour, runway, wings, musical entertainment, and more!”
