Victoria’s Secret is giving the City of Angels a whole new meaning
The famed lingerie brand has new plans for its 2026 fashion show, set for this fall. On Thursday, July 16, Victoria’s Secret announced that this year’s runway spectacle with take place in Los Angeles, a big change up from the recent New York-based shows
In a promo video shared to Victoria Secret’s official Instagram page displaying the tops of palm trees and sunshine-filled clouds, the brand wrote: “The wait is over—the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is back! This year, we’re taking the show on the road to the birthplace of glamour, stardom, and icons….Los Angeles, California. It’s the City of Angels, after all.”
With the show’s move to L.A., where it took place twice before in 2006 and 2007, one can only expect Victoria Secret’s to go bigger (think Vogue World 2025’s studio lot production) with a large-scale production and even bigger A-list names. After all, the City of Angels is full of bright stars
