The Iconic Event Is Reimagined with a New Generation of Women from Around the World
Victoria’s Secret has announced the return of its fashion show with a reimagined format and perspective. Presented as a feature length film, it will unite fashion, film, art, and culture featuring global creatives, top supermodels, musical talent, and more.
The film will take audiences on a journey through the behind-the-scenes craft and intimate stories of the VS20 – a group of 20 innovative global creatives who will conceive four fashion curations from the vibrant cities of Bogota, Lagos, London, and Tokyo. With the creative freedom to conceptualize, produce and stage a collection that is all their own, the dynamic artistic forces from the fashion, film, design, music, and visual fields will converge to showcase their work alongside iconic custom Victoria’s Secret designs.
“This film is the ultimate expression of the Victoria’s Secret brand transformation. It will be driven by fashion, glamour and entertainment with a nod to beloved iconography from the past but in a bold, redefined way. We are so honored to offer our platform and have it explored through the lens and artistry of global creatives who celebrate the individuality of women’s stories and perspectives.”
