This year's performers follow a long history of big-time music stars making cameos on the Victoria's Secret runway. The acts at last year's show in Shanghai were Harry Styles, Miguel, Hamilton star Leslie Odom Jr., and Chinese pop star Jane Zhang.
The year prior, the lineup consisted of Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, and The Weeknd (who had an awkward run-in with former ex and now-reunited-girlfriend, Bella Hadid).
After hosting extravagant fashion shows around the world for the past few years-in cities like London, Paris, and Shanghai-the event returns to NYC, where it first began in 1995. The collection will also feature a collaboration with print-loving U.K. designer, Mary Katrantzou, which means we could be seeing some bold lingerie on the catwalk.
Expect to see the Angels on the runway, including Adriana Lima, Elsa Hosk, and Sara Sampaio, plus dozens more models, like Shanina Shaik, Georgia Fowler, Cindy Bruna, and Karlie Kloss. First-timers include Winnie Harlow, Dukie Thot, and Lorena Rae. It's still unclear if massive stars like Kendall Jenner or the Hadids will join in, but the roster is already stacked.
