The wait is finally over. The 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was the lingerie brand’s first major show in six years. Surviving backlash and controversies, the rebranded show embraced inclusivity and shared ideologies. The show staggered a massive lineup of all-female performers from Cher, Tyla, and Blackpink’s Lisa alongside the celeb-studded guestlist, marking positive pop culture movements.
Moreover, the brand’s runway was bigger, better, and bolder, with fresh faces debuting alongside retired models returning to its flagship store in New York City, 640 Fifth Avenue, on October 15th. The show was dreamier than ever, reinforcing their commitment to inclusivity with plus-size and transgender models reshaping the brand’s vision. Check out all the hottest and glittery looks from the iconic 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show below.
1. Gigi Hadid
Gigi opened the runway like a true supermodel. Her aura radiated princess energy, which was hard to ignore. She wore a VS Twinkle Bows Satin Flutter Romper, etched with a plunging neckline and delicate back with rhinestone-studded straps. Completing her look with the brand’s signature angel wings and a high-energy performance by Lisa, Hadid made a grand entrance on the runway.
2. Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham initially hesitated when VS first reached out. However, she made her Victoria’s Secret fashion show debut in a black lace bodysuit, sheer robe, and gold-embossed wings that symbolize empowerment, with VS’s assurance and commitment to representing and embracing the body diversity revolution in lasting and meaningful ways.
3. Devyn Garcia
Another first-timer to walk the VS runway was Devyn Garcia. Her voluminous curls, cascading down her shoulders, stole the spotlight, while a shimmery glam makeup enhanced her features. Twinkle strap lace featured on her ensemble, and dainty crystal rows gleamed along this classic lace demi straps, making it impossibly comfy and fluffy as she confidently walked the runway.
4. Valentina Sampaio
Valentina Sampaio, the first openly transgender model for Victoria’s Secret, made history by walking for the brand, marking a significant milestone for the lingerie label. She graced the runway in stunning bow-like wings, a crystal-embellished lingerie set, a black mesh skirt, and a bronzy look highlighting her ensemble’s copper and metallic details.
5. Alex Consani
Gen-Z queen Alex Consani, the world’s youngest transgender model, made her angelic debut at the highly anticipated Victoria’s Secret fashion show. Dressed in star-adorned padded angel wings and a sequin-embellished sleeveless bra top, she shimmered under the runway lights.
6. Adriana Lima
Adriana Lima, a top supermodel and the longest-serving Victoria’s Secret Angel, has represented the brand for nearly two decades, captivating audiences with her unparalleled charisma. Notably, she is one of the few Angels who donned the coveted Fantasy Bra three times. In the 2024 runway show, she dazzled in black lingerie paired with checker-striped plaid leggings, coruscating butterfly wings, and a sleek, high-rise ponytail.
7. Tyra Banks
Tyra Banks closed the final segment of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Earning her first VS catwalk in 1996, Banks was the first black model to appear on the Victoria’s Secret catalog cover, breaking barriers in an industry long dominated by a lack of diversity. Tyra’s final leg showcased her stunning figure in a black catsuit with a plunging neckline, complemented by a crystalized corset and breathtaking eye look.
Though the much-awaited fashion show was on hiatus for over a half-decade, the comeback narrative of what glamor, runway, fashion, fun, wings, angels, and entertainment look like in this new age and era was competently visualized, meticulously articulated, and effectively executed.
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024 efficiently communicated its new values, highlighting inclusivity in full force. The show’s rebranding captured fresh perspectives while crafting powerful representations of all shapes and sizes, which is empowering in the true sense. Moreover, the shows’ glam and glitz proliferated to new heights, marking a benchmark to go beyond and upward.
