The Angels landed in the City of Angels. The 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show returned Sunday night, October 18, with a Los Angeles spectacle packed with veteran supermodels, new faces, massive wings, an all-female music lineup and the surprise return of one of the brand’s most extravagant traditions: the Fantasy Bra.
Held at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, the show marked Victoria’s Secret’s return to Los Angeles for the first time in nearly two decades after the revived runway event spent the previous two years in New York.
This year’s theme, “Fandemonium,” leaned into American pop culture, fandom and celebrity while restoring many of the visual signatures longtime viewers associate with the show: towering wings, bombshell hair, a glittering runway and plenty of pink.
Bella Hadid opened the runway in a brightly colored floral look before a roster that mixed established Victoria’s Secret icons with a new generation of models. Gigi Hadid, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Ashley Graham, Anok Yai, Alex Consani, Jasmine Tookes, Elsa Hosk, Irina Shayk, Doutzen Kroes, Behati Prinsloo and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley were among the names appearing in this year’s show.
For longtime fans, the show delivered plenty of nostalgia. Lima closed the night in a white beaded, fringed ensemble with classic white Angel wings, while other runway looks ranged from oversized flowers and metallic feathers to sculptural wings and vivid bursts of neon.
But the biggest surprise belonged to Kylie Jenner.
Jenner made an unannounced runway debut wearing the revived Victoria’s Secret Fantasy Bra, returning to the show for the first time since 2018. Created by Jacob & Co., the piece is valued at $50 million, making it the most expensive Fantasy Bra in Victoria’s Secret history.

The bra contains 4,410 natural diamonds and centers on a 75.54-carat Fancy Vivid yellow diamond. A team of 15 craftspeople reportedly spent more than 1,000 hours constructing the piece, which contains more than 3,200 individually designed components.
Jenner walked in the jeweled creation with oversized white wings as boyfriend Timothée Chalamet and mother Kris Jenner watched from the audience. She also became the first non-Victoria’s Secret Angel to wear the Fantasy Bra on the runway.
Music remained nearly as important as the fashion.
Megan Moroney, Megan Thee Stallion, Tate McRae and KATSEYE made up the all-female performance lineup, continuing the format Victoria’s Secret has embraced since bringing the fashion show back in 2024.
Moroney brought country to the runway with a three-song medley of “6 Months Later,” “Wish I Didn’t” and “Sorry… I Meant Tonight,” while the rest of the lineup helped turn the 57-minute show into something closer to a pop concert with lingerie.
For Victoria’s Secret, the evening continued the brand’s effort to revive its most famous marketing property while widening the range of bodies, personalities and generations appearing on its runway.
There was plenty designed specifically to get social media talking. But beneath the cameos and the diamonds, the 2026 show also felt like an embrace of the unapologetic excess that made the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show a pop-culture event in the first place.
Big wings. Big stars. Bigger diamonds.
