Supermodels, music, and inclusivity take center stage in this year’s highly anticipated runway event.
New York City – October 2025:
The 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show made its dazzling comeback last night, blending the brand’s signature glamour with a bold, modern vision of beauty. Held at the newly renovated Hudson Yards Pavilion, the show highlighted empowerment, diversity, and artistry in a way that captivated both fashion insiders and fans around the world.
A Reinvented Show for a New Era
After years of rebranding and evolving to meet changing standards in the fashion industry, Victoria’s Secret officially reintroduced its runway with the theme “Angels Reimagined.” The concept focused on celebrating individuality, self-expression, and confidence — a step away from the hyper-glamorized fantasy of previous decades.
Executive producer Raúl Martinez said before the event, “This year is about bringing together fashion, storytelling, and culture — showing that confidence is the most beautiful thing a woman can wear.”
The show featured five creative chapters, each representing a different global influence — from New York street style to Rio Carnival flair and Tokyo’s futuristic minimalism.
Star-Studded Lineup
Some of the world’s most recognized supermodels made their return to the runway, including Adriana Lima, Candice Swanepoel, and Gigi Hadid, while newer faces like Grace Elizabeth, Paloma Elsesser, and Duckie Thot brought fresh energy to the stage.
Rising stars Anok Yai and Amelia Gray Hamlin closed the show in breathtaking crystal-embroidered ensembles that drew a standing ovation from the audience.
The event also featured powerhouse musical performances from Dua Lipa, Doja Cat, and The Weeknd, creating a high-energy mix of fashion and entertainment reminiscent of the show’s early-2000s heyday.

Focus on Inclusivity and Sustainability
Beyond the glamour, the 2025 edition underscored Victoria’s Secret’s ongoing efforts toward inclusivity and sustainability. The brand partnered with eco-friendly designers to produce limited-edition pieces made from recycled fabrics and ethical materials.
Model and activist Paloma Elsesser praised the initiative, saying, “It’s refreshing to see a brand this iconic evolve and take responsibility — fashion should be beautiful, but it should also be mindful.”
The collection showcased a wide range of body types, skin tones, and styles, further solidifying the company’s commitment to redefining what beauty looks like in today’s world.
Social Media Buzz and Global Streaming
The show was broadcast globally through Amazon Prime Video and streamed on the Victoria’s Secret App, drawing millions of live viewers. The hashtags #VSFashionShow2025 and #AngelsReimagined quickly trended worldwide, with fans applauding the fusion of nostalgia and modern identity.
Fashion analysts predict that this year’s show could mark a turning point for Victoria’s Secret, rebuilding its reputation while embracing authenticity and global diversity.
As one fan commented online, “The Angels may look different now — but they shine brighter than ever.”
