By the time the last Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show aired on CBS in December 2018, the brand had become so vast and successful that it was oblivious to cultural changes and competition who were embracing inclusivity into their marketing techniques. In light of Rihanna’s debut Savage Fenty fashion show and its owner’s links to Jeffrey Epstein, Victoria’s Secret’s reliance on an impossibly narrow concept of beauty seemed out of touch. Since then, the brand underwent a comprehensive revamp, displacing the original Fashion Show designers, replacing the Angels with a VS Collective, expanding its size range, and manufacturing items it previously avoided.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is now being recreated in the form of a feature-length documentary film, which will premiere in September. In March, the lingerie brand disclosed intentions of modifying its Angel-themed production, which was formerly one of the most anticipated (and watched) in the globe. According to the brand, it may possibly have wings and is just as stunning as earlier works.
Ahead, everything to know about the Victoria’s Secret World Tour.
It will be released in September.
The Victoria’s Secret World Tour documentary, according to reports, will broadcast in September. According to the news release, the show “will be streamed internationally and culminate in a live fashion event this fall.”
The World Tour Will Include Designers, artists, dancers, and musicians
The documentary follows 20 global creatives from Bogotá, Lagos, London, and Tokyo as they work behind the scenes to create four fashion designs. Four of these creations will walk the runway with the brand’s signature looks. Among the Bogotá creatives are Melissa Valdes, filmmaker Cristina Sánchez Salamanca, painter Lorena Torres, choreographer Piscis, and musician Goyo. Among the Lagos creatives are Bubu Ogisi, filmmaker Korty, artist Eloghosa Osunde, artist Ashley Okoli, and photographer Wavy the Creator. Among the London creatives are Supriya Lele, filmmaker Margot Bowman, artist and writer Ebun Sodipo, lingerie designer Michaela Stark, and artist Phoebe Collings. Among the Tokyo creatives are Jenny Fax, Umi Ishihara, painter Kaito Itsuki, dancer Aoi Yamada, and artist Kom-I.
Do the original “angels” plan to return?
Given the brand’s new direction, the new Victoria’s Secret “collective” will be mostly made up of new faces. Supermodels and prior runway mainstays could appear, but this remains to be seen.
