Victoria’s Secret brought its signature glamour back to Los Angeles on Oct. 18, welcoming familiar Angels, rising models and major musical performers for its latest fashion show. The event marked the brand’s third runway production since its return in 2024 after a six-year break.
The hour-long show featured four musical acts and a seven-part concept inspired by the changing seasons. Bella Hadid, Adriana Lima, Gigi Hadid and other familiar faces joined newer models for a runway celebration filled with elaborate wings, bold lingerie and sparkling designs.
Bella Hadid opens the show with spring glamour
The show began with Spring Awakening, led by Bella Hadid in floral angel wings and a bright green lingerie set. Anok Yai followed with one of the evening’s standout designs, a dramatic floating pink flower-inspired look.
Soft greens, pinks, floral prints and delicate lace shaped the opening collection. Ruffles and romantic details also helped establish the spring-inspired mood.
Megan Moroney took the stage during Vintage Victoria. She performed 6 Months Later, Wish I Didn’t and Sorry… I Meant Tonight in a pink rhinestone corset and fluffy wings.
Barbara Palvin also returned to the runway just six weeks after welcoming her first child with husband Dylan Sprouse. He watched the show from the audience. Meanwhile, the models showcased silk and chiffon slip dresses in different lengths and soft pastel shades.
Tate McRae and KATSEYE bring summer energy
Summer Fever introduced a brighter collection filled with metallic fabrics, sequins and rhinestones. Tate McRae performed Dear God and Sports Car before debuting her new single, Housewife. She wore a deep red lingerie set for the performance.
Gigi Hadid made her first runway appearance of the evening in sequined wings. Candice Swanepoel, Joan Smalls and Behati Prinsloo also brought familiar faces back to the show.
Yasmin Wijnaldum returned after making her Victoria’s Secret debut in 2018. Her appearance added another notable moment to the lineup.
KATSEYE performed Animal and Pinky Up during the PINK Halftime Show. Their custom pink and black outfits featured bold styling, while cheetah prints, denim, satin and varsity-inspired pieces brought a nostalgic touch to the collection.
Golden wings and winter sparkle close the show
The second half explored darker and more dramatic seasonal styles. Autumn Changes featured black, gold, lace and sheer fabrics. Alex Consani wore golden feathered wings, while Ming Xi attracted attention in oversized golden tulle wings measuring three meters tall.
Elsa Hosk and Vittoria Ceretti also appeared during the segment.
Winter Melody shifted toward black and white designs, rhinestones and feather-inspired wings. Liu Wen wore a floor-length statement jacket, while Irina Shayk, Precious Lee and Bella Hadid delivered other standout looks.
The final segment, Winter Reprise, embraced white, silver and sparkling accessories. Adriana Lima returned in snow-inspired white wings. Gigi Hadid and Barbara Palvin also wore shimmering silver designs.
Megan Thee Stallion performed Body and Her during the winter portions of the show. However, the biggest closing moment belonged to Kylie Jenner. Making her first Victoria’s Secret runway appearance, Jenner wore the brand’s $50 million Fantasy Bra.
Her appearance brought the seven-part showcase to a close, giving the 2026 production a finale that combined fashion, music and familiar runway personalities.
