We are talking about the much awaited Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show which had returned after a break of 6 years in 2024. Needless to say, the fashion show has been creating waves in the industry post its return and this year’s ramp show is likely to be one for the book.
After all, Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026, which took place in Los Angeles on October 18, 2026 once again brought back the star-studded ramp moments, stunning glamour and the impressive wings slaying at the ramps left everyone in absolute awe. Interestingly, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 witnessed a starstudded line up for the ramp including names like Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadidi, Anok Yai, Elsa Hosk, Adriana Lima, etc along with Kylie Jenner’s much talked about debut wearing the $50 million Fantasy Bra. This isn’t all. Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 also witnessed performances by Megan Moroney, Tate McRae, Megan The Stallion etc. While it was a night to remember, the angel wings on models were indeed one of the highlights. But did you know, not all models get angel wingers during Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026?
What Is The Significance Of Angel Wings On Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026?
While Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 never fails to make the headlines, not all Victoria’s Secret models are Angels. The Victoria’s Secret Angels have special contracts with the brand which is different from the runway models. As per a former Angel Miranda Kerr, who completed her gig in 2013, had told Sydney Morning Herald that the contract is for three months minimum and it does affect the work opportunities. But this isn’t all. Victoria’s Secret Angels get huge paycheques as well which includes endorsements and contracts as well. However, the paycheques do vary each year.
It’s important to mention that just because a model walking for the Victoria’s Secret runway gets to wear wings does not mean she is an Angel. In fact, it is reported that just 41 models have been the official title of Angel between 1997-2021 and it is undoubtedly a status symbol within the brand. While the Angels were reportedly discontinued in 2021, several models were seen walking the ramp in custom wings regardless of the title.
