Angels, Devils and Drama: Victoria’s Secret Steals the Spotlight
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 transformed Los Angeles into a glamorous runway bringing together some of the world’s most celebrated models, entertainers and fashion personalities for a colourful evening of style, music and spectacle. Held at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, the show featured elaborate angel wings, sparkling lingerie designs and performances by leading female artists.
Among the biggest attractions was Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima, who returned to the runway for her 21st Victoria’s Secret show. The veteran Angel impressed in several looks, including a striking neon-green lingerie ensemble with floral wings, before closing the show in a white outfit paired with elaborate silver-white wings.

The runway also featured popular models, including Alex Consani, Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid, Alessandra Ambrosio and Candice Swanepoel. Bella Hadid opened the show, while the return of established runway stars alongside newer faces highlighted the brand’s continued evolution.
Music added another layer of excitement, with performances from American rapper Megan Thee Stallion, pop star Tate McRae, country singer Megan Moroney and girl group KATSEYE. The all-female musical lineup brought together different sounds and audiences, strengthening the show’s blend of fashion and entertainment.

However, the night’s biggest talking point was arguably the return of the iconic Fantasy Bra after an eight-year absence. Reality television star Kylie Jenner made her Victoria’s Secret runway debut wearing a creation reportedly valued at $50 million. Designed in collaboration with luxury jeweller Jacob & Co., the piece featured 4,410 natural diamonds, making it one of the most extravagant creations in the brand’s history.

The event also delivered memorable milestones, including runway debuts by basketball legend Kobe Bryant’s daughter, Natalia Bryant, and American soccer player Trinity Rodman. Meanwhile, Cameroonian model Solange Omon earned her place on the runway after winning the brand’s Angels Among Us competition, which offered an opportunity for a new face to join the prestigious fashion spectacle.

Beyond the glitter and celebrity appearances, the show demonstrated Victoria’s Secret’s continued ability to attract global attention by combining fashion, music, luxury and emerging talent. Its successful return to Los Angeles offered audiences a colourful celebration of the brand’s legacy while introducing new personalities and memorable runway moments.
In an era when fashion brands are increasingly judged on representation, authenticity and commercial excess, does a $50 million bra represent the pinnacle of creativity , or the growing obsession with luxury and celebrity culture?
