The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is back, and the red carpet was ablaze with star power! But before the iconic wings took flight, the celebrities arrived, turning heads and setting the stage for what promises to be a spectacular event. Did the stars shine as brightly as the Angels? Let's dive in and see who graced the pink carpet for the 2025 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York City on October 15th!
Before we get to the models like Gigi Hadid, Ashley Graham, and Alex Consani, who walked the runway, let's talk about the pre-show glamour. Project Runway's very own Law Roach made a bold statement with a striking silver suit, perfectly complemented by matching snakeskin boots and a silver snake necklace. Talk about a statement piece!
Patrick Schwarzenegger, star of White Lotus and fresh from celebrating his recent marriage to Abby Champion in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, opted for a sleek and sophisticated look. He chose an all-black ensemble, featuring a classic leather jacket, T-shirt, and slacks. A simple yet effective choice to show his support for his wife, Abby, who was walking in the show.
And then there was Sarah Jessica Parker, radiating elegance in a timeless black trench coat layered over a chic black dress and paired with strappy black heels. SJP proved that classic style never goes out of fashion.
The ladies of K-pop sensation TWICE brought a burst of coordinated energy, dazzling in matching black and white dresses. Their appearance was not just a fashion moment, but also a prelude to their highly anticipated performance during the show. Imagine the excitement in the air!
Brazilian influencer Rafa Kalimann embraced her pregnancy glow in a stunning low-cut black dress featuring a shimmering pink lining and a daring hip-high leg slit. She beautifully showcased her baby bump with confidence and style.
Dylan Sprouse, of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody fame, kept it classic in a simple black suit. He was there to support his wife, Barbara Palvin, who was taking to the catwalk for her fourth year. His presence was especially meaningful given Barbara's recent health journey.
And this is the part most people miss: Dylan's unwavering support. Barbara bravely underwent surgery for endometriosis just four months prior to the show. "Dylan's been extremely supportive," Barbara shared with E! News backstage, "and helped me through the whole recovery process and everything." It's a truly heartwarming display of love and partnership.
But here's where it gets controversial... The Victoria's Secret show is embracing a new era of athleticism! Angel Reese, alongside Suni Lee, made their debut as the first athletes to walk the iconic catwalk. Angel even proclaimed that she "manifested" this opportunity! "I posted it on my Story last year that I was going to be a Victoria's Secret model and it literally happened less than a year later," she told E! News backstage. "You can put your mind to anything you want to do. You can be multidimensional. I’m an athlete. I’m an entrepreneur. I’m a businesswoman. I’m a podcaster. I’m everything you want to say. I’m a Barbie doll." Does this mark a new direction for the brand, embracing a broader definition of beauty and talent? Some might argue it's a powerful statement, while others might question if it dilutes the brand's original image. What do you think?
The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is back on the runway and is available to stream live on Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Live, as well as Victoria Secret’s Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
