Social Media Buzz
The announcement of the fashion show’s return sparked a flurry of reactions on social media. Fans expressed their excitement and nostalgia, with one user commenting, “Oh my God, please bring back the angels from the golden era! Even the ones from the 90s who haven’t catwalked in years.” Another added, “WE NEED THE QUEENS. GIVE US GISELE AND ADRIANA,” referring to Gisele Bündchen and Adriana Lima, iconic figures in the show’s history.
The Hiatus Explained
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was an annual event from 1995 to 2018. However, it was canceled for several reasons, primarily a significant decline in viewership and sales. The show also faced criticism for its lack of inclusivity, as it predominantly featured tall and thin models, failing to represent various body types. Additionally, there were concerns about the objectification of women.
Embracing Change
Victoria’s Secret has acknowledged the past criticisms and is expected to introduce changes in the upcoming show. The 2024 edition aims to be more inclusive and reflective of today’s diverse world while retaining the elements that made it iconic. One hopeful fan mentioned, “Please, bring back an incredible show, with wings and wonderful angels, of course with a lot of diversity from the current world, but let’s not lose what made Victoria’s Secret fashion shows magical.”
The return of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show marks a significant moment for the brand and its fans. Committed to inclusivity and diversity, the show aims to reclaim its status as a premier fashion event. Stay tuned for more updates as the fall event approaches.
