The Return of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show: A Step Backward?

Victoria’s Secret recently revived its iconic fashion show, attempting to strike a balance between nostalgia and progressive values. Despite efforts to rebrand—emphasizing female empowerment and diversity—the show’s revival raises questions about its relevance and impact in today’s society. At this event, the runway glittered with an array of models like Gigi Hadid, Paloma Elsesser, and Valentina Sampaio, adorned in the brand’s trademark wings and lingerie. Superstars like Cher added glamour, performing hits that seemed aligned with messages of strength and resilience. Yet, despite these elements, the show struggled to shake off its historical baggage.
