The return of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show after a six-year hiatus was nothing short of a major event. This year’s spectacle, taking place yesterday, October 15, marked a departure from the brand’s traditional image, embracing a more inclusive and empowering vision.

A New Era of Beauty

The 2024 show showcased a noticeable shift in Victoria’s Secret’s approach. Gone are the days of the “Fantasy Bra” and exclusive “Angels.” The 2024 show showcased a diverse cast of models, including plus-size models Paloma Elsesser and Ashley Graham, trans models Alex Consani and Valentina Sampaio, and veteran faces such as Gigi and Bella Hadid, Tyra Banks, and more.

The show also featured a range of models of different ages and backgrounds, such as Carla Bruni, Kate Moss, and her daughter Lila Moss, further emphasizing the brand’s efforts to expand its vision of beauty. This shift signaled a conscious effort to redefine beauty standards and cater to a broader audience.

A Star-Studded Affair

The runway wasn’t the only highlight. A lineup of legendary female artists, including Tyla, K-pop star Lisa, and iconic pop singer Cher, took the stage, adding an extra golden touch of glamour to the event. This departure from the traditional single headliner also signaled a move towards celebrating more diverse talent.

The show, of course, attracted the who’s who of celebrities, from Queen Latifah and Angel Reese to Tyga and Phoebe Dynevor.

A Blend of Old and New

While the show embraced a new direction, it also paid homage to its roots. Iconic elements like the angel wings were still present, but the focus was on celebrating beauty in all its forms. The 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was a significant milestone for the brand. By embracing diversity and inclusivity, the show demonstrated a commitment to evolving with the times and appealing to a wider audience.

Although it’s clear that the brand still has work to do, we’re here for the improvements (and the return to the iconic runway)! Keep scrolling to check out the looks from the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
