Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026: Fantasy Bra Returns, Solange Omon Becomes an Angel
Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 took over Los Angeles on Sunday, October 18. The runway show ran about an hour. It brought back the Fantasy Bra, named a new Angel and featured four live musical acts. It streamed live on the brand’s official YouTube channel.
The night also moved forward a story the brand has built all year. A nationwide casting call, a docuseries and a limited shoppable collection all led to one runway moment. Here is what happened, who walked and what comes next.
Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026: What Happened in Los Angeles
The show was organized into themed segments named after seasons, with live performances between them. According to PEOPLE, the runway mixed lace-heavy looks with oversized wings. The brand billed the night as “Supermodel Sunday.”
A short opening video set the tone. PEOPLE reports that Gisele Bündchen appeared in it and hinted at a future runway return. She did not walk this year.
The finale brought all the models back with the musical guests. Veteran Angels Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio led the walk while confetti fell, PEOPLE reported. They have walked 21 and 20 shows, respectively.
Why Los Angeles Was the Setting
Victoria’s Secret announced the location in July. The brand called Los Angeles the birthplace of glamour, stardom and icons, and said it was taking the show “on the road.” The exact venue was not named in that announcement.
The location also fits the show’s film-and-music focus. Front-row guests included Timothée Chalamet and Nicole Kidman, according to PEOPLE.
Who Walked the Runway
According to PEOPLE, the models included Marlee Guillory, Alex Consani, Paloma Elsesser, Ashley Graham, Elsa Hosk and Barbara Palvin. Kylie Jenner made her Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show debut by wearing the Fantasy Bra.
Before the event, the brand’s VS Insider hub announced cast additions including Gigi Hadid and Abby Champion.
Three walks stood out:
- Barbara Palvin walked six weeks after giving birth to her daughter, Sylvie. She told PEOPLE that coming back was “not that big of a deal.” Her husband, Dylan Sprouse, watched from the front row.
- Elsa Hosk also walked, a few months after welcoming her daughter, Flora, in July.
- Alex Consani was part of the cast again. The brand’s announcement said it was her third year in a row.
The Live Music Lineup
Four acts performed: Tate McRae, KATSEYE, Megan Moroney and Megan Thee Stallion. A PINK segment also served as a halftime break.
PEOPLE reports that McRae, 23, sang “Sports Car,” “Dear God” and her new single “Housewife.” She wore a red lingerie look and danced close to the front row, where Kidman was seated.
Why the Fantasy Bra Stole the Show
The Fantasy Bra has long been the show’s most talked-about piece. This year’s version drew attention for its price and its craftsmanship, according to PEOPLE:
- Value: $50 million, the most expensive piece to date.
- Wearer: Kylie Jenner.
- Weight: about four pounds.
- Stones: 4,410 natural diamonds and a 75.54-carat radiant-cut Fancy Vivid yellow diamond.
- Build time: 15 craftspeople worked for 1,000 hours.
- Return: the first time on the show’s runway in eight years.
The brand has also published a making-of page for the piece. It sells a limited-quantity “Very Sexy Shine Fantasy Bra” inspired by the Jacob & Co. runway design. That is a retail style, not the $50M original.
How Solange Omon Became an Angel
Solange Omon won a nationwide casting call that the brand followed in its Angels Among Us docuseries. The search stopped at select Simon Malls to choose its semi-finalists.
After her runway debut, the brand called her its newest Angel. It said Tatyana and Andreína, two other contestants, also walked the runway. Omon told PEOPLE she was “shocked” to win but enjoyed the process.
Background: How the Show Reached This Point
Victoria’s Secret stopped its runway show after 2018. According to ELLE, the 2024 edition in New York was the brand’s first runway event since then, and it was described as a reinvention of the format. The Fantasy Bra’s return after eight years adds to that comeback.
The brand is now tying the show to year-round content, including docuseries episodes, store events and ticket giveaways at its locations. The cast reflects that shift. Veteran Angels walked alongside newer faces and a contest winner.
Other Moments From the Night
- Summer Dirx: her heel caught in a stage crack as she left the PINK section. She recovered and exited as nearby fans cheered, PEOPLE reported.
- Ashley Graham: she filmed backstage content on a bedazzled flip phone and later walked in lace, sparkle and wings.
What Comes Next
- Docuseries finale: Angels Among Us wraps on November 22. Episodes 1–6 are on YouTube.
- Gisele Bündchen: a runway return was teased. No date has been announced.
- Fantasy Bra style: it is sold in limited quantity, so it may sell out.
- Viewership: figures have not been published yet.

The Bigger Picture
This analysis is ours, not the brand’s. The 2026 show worked as one piece of a year-round campaign, not a single night. A casting call and docuseries fed the runway, live music broadened the audience, and a shoppable Fantasy Bra tied the show to sales. The replay extends it further. The November 22 docuseries finale gives the story one more date to build toward.
