2025 VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW- FROM MISSY ELLIOT, GIGI & BELLA HADID, EMILY RATAJKOWSKI & MORE

-

2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show — a dazzling, high-octane night where legacy met reinvention, where runway and rhythm collided, and where familiar faces made bold returns

The Stage Is Set

After years of absence, Victoria’s Secret officially revived its flagship runway event, staging the show on October 15, 2025, in New York City (Brooklyn) at Steiner Studios / Brooklyn Navy Yard. The brand leaned into a hybrid spectacle — not just a lingerie fashion show but a full-blown entertainment experience. The show was streamed live globally (Prime Video, Amazon Live, social platforms) at 7 p.m. ET, with pink carpet coverage beginning at 6:30 p.m. 

Musical performances were front and center: Missy Elliott, Madison Beer, Karol G, and K-pop supergroup TWICE energized the evening with sets interwoven into the runway acts. 

Victoria’s Secret framed 2025 as a moment of rebirth — bringing back iconic Angels, welcoming new faces, and crafting theatrical runway storytelling that emphasized empowerment, spectacle, and evolution.

Walkers, Wings & Highlights

Gigi & Bella Hadid — A Sisterly Power Move

One of the evening’s most anticipated stories was the return of Gigi and Bella Hadid, turning the runway into a familial reunion of style and star power.

  • Gigi opened a later segment in a pink lace set with a dramatic floral cape, later transforming into an angelic all-white corset ensemble with wings. 


  • Bella, returning after a brief hiatus, stunned first in a satin red lingerie set with sheer stockings and a flowing cape. In a second look, she wore metallic fringe with large floral-petal wings. 

  • Her hair transformation was also a topic: she debuted her lightest/blondest shade to date. 

Their presence tied the show’s legacy and its future together — familiar, glamorous, commanding.

Emily Ratajkowski’s First Walk

2025 marked Emily Ratajkowski’s debut on the Victoria’s Secret runway (though she had been part of other VS campaigns prior). 

Her runway look? A pale lavender lingerie set accentuated by dramatic 3D orchid-inspired wings, crystal embellishments, long gloves, and lace-up heels. She carried herself with the confidence of a veteran, blending delicacy and strength in a way that felt fresh yet true to VS heritage. 

The Ensemble of Legends & New Voices

Beyond the Hadids and EmRata, 2025’s cast was loaded with storied names and rising stars alike:

  • Returning Icons: Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Behati Prinsloo, Candice Swanepoel, Joan Smalls, Irina Shayk, Ashley Graham, Stella Maxwell, Barbara Palvin, and more. 

  • Fresh Faces: Angel Reese (making history as the first professional athlete to walk the show), Precious Lee, Yumi Nu, Iris Law, and others. 

  • Highlights included bold styling, ornate wings (from floral petals to crystal fringe), and avant-garde lingerie designs that flirted with fantasy — each model had one “hero look” meant to be the standout of her walk. 

The show also leaned into maximalist beauty: volumized hair, dramatic eyes, luminescent skin, sculpted makeup — every detail amplified the theatricality. 

Missy Elliott & the Musical Energy

Missy Elliott's performance was a centerpiece — a reminder that this is as much a concert as it is a fashion moment. Her presence elevated the night’s energy, bridging music and runway in seamless performance segments. 

Madison Beer, Karol G, and TWICE also delivered electrifying sets interspersed between runway segments, giving the audience and viewers at home dynamic transitions and moments to breathe. 

 Moments That Will Live On

  • The “Sister Red & Pink” Parallel: Bella in fiery red, Gigi in pink — deliberate echoes of their past color signatures.

  • EmRata’s graceful but unforgettable debut, proving she belonged in this pantheon.

  • Angel Reese’s historic entry, expanding the brand’s narrative about who gets wings. 

  • The fusion of performance and fashion — every runway moment felt synchronized with soundscapes, lighting cues, and theatrical pacing.

  • Legacy revival meets fresh energy — the show leaned on beloved stars but also made space for new voices, signaling Victoria’s Secret is trying to evolve, not just revive.

Graham Greene : A Literary Master of Moral Complexity Introduction GRAHAM GREENE Few authors of the 20th century combined storytelling, moral inquiry, and political awareness as powerfully as Graham Greene . An English novelist, short story writer, journalist, critic, and screenwriter, Greene created works that transcended genres, blurring the boundaries between popular fiction and literary art. He wrote thrillers infused with suspense, but unlike typical detective novels, Greene’s stories grappled with profound issues of faith, doubt, betrayal, and human frailty . Over a career spanning six decades, Greene produced more than 25 novels, as well as plays, short stories, memoirs, and essays. His works ranged from Catholic-themed explorations of sin and redemption—dubbed his “Catholic novels”—to politically charged thrillers that dissected espionage, imperialism, and corruption.
