Here’s everything to know about the Victoria Secret Fashion Show, which will kick off Wednesday night.
WASHINGTON — The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show returns on Wednesday, with Angel Reese poised to make history on the catwalk.
The models, known as Victoria’s Secret Angels, will captivate audiences at the fashion event in New York City on Wednesday, Oct. 15. Reese, the Chicago Sky forward, is set to become the first professional athlete to walk the Victoria’s Secret fashion show runway. She will be joined by high-profile models Gigi Hadid, Barbara Palvin, Adriana Lima and more.
The lingerie show began in 2001 and took place annually for nearly two decades. Victoria’s Secret canceled the show in 2019 but brought it back last year, with Reese attending. Last year, the show was a mix of music and celebrities, with Tyla performing at the 2024 fashion event.
The show begins at 7 p.m. Eastern and will be livestreamed on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Prime Video in the U.S.
Reese, 23, will don the signature angel wings that have defined the show for decades, a new stage for an athlete known for her confidence, charisma and crossover appeal. She is a former Louisiana State University national champion and the NCAA tournament’s most outstanding player in 2023.
Reese has become one of the most visible figures in women’s sports. Her style, outspokenness and social media influence have helped bridge the gap between sports, fashion and pop culture.
The lingerie brand confirmed last week that Missy Elliott, K-pop group TWICE, Madison Beer and Karol G will all perform at the 2025 fashion show.
