Everything you need to know about the Victoria’s Secret comeback

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show has established itself as a cultural phenomenon, a show that not only celebrated fashion, but also set standards for beauty. However, in 2019, then marketing chief Ed Razek unleashed a firestorm of criticism when he declared that he did not want to include transgender or curvy models. These words resonated negatively, intensifying the perception that the brand was out of touch with reality.

The controversy was amplified in 2020 with the airing of the documentary Victoria’s Secret: Angels and Demons, which shed light on the toxic beauty standards and exclusionary atmosphere of the show. It also revealed L Brands CEO Les Wexner’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein, leading many to question the ethics behind the brand.

Now, Victoria’s Secret seems ready to take a new step, as evidenced by its recent Instagram post: ‘We’ve read the comments and we’ve heard you. The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is BACK, reflecting who we are today, plus everything you know and love: glamour, runway, wings, musical entertainment and more! Stay tuned… it gets more iconic from here!’.
