Cher is set to headline the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, marking a highly-anticipated return for the iconic event. Scheduled for October 15, 2024, in New York City, this year’s show promises to bring back the glamour, runway spectacle, wings, musical entertainment, and more.
After a six-year hiatus, Victoria’s Secret announced the comeback of its signature fashion show featuring Cher as the headliner. The brand expressed that the show would reflect the essence of who they are today. This marks a significant return to form for the event, as the last traditional television broadcast of the fashion show was in 2018. In 2023, the show was presented in a documentary format titled “Victoria’s Secret: The Tour ‘23” on Prime Video.
The singer and actress Cher will be joined by other performers, including singer-songwriter Tyla and rapper Lisa, in what is described as an all-women lineup for the first time in the show’s history. The runway will be graced by top models such as Ashley Graham, Barbara Palvin, Gigi Hadid, Tyra Banks, and others.
The 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will take place at the brand’s flagship store in New York City, promising a night of glamour, music, and fashion. The event will be live-streamed on various platforms including Amazon Prime, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, starting at 7 pm ET. Additionally, a watch party will be hosted at The Penn District in Manhattan for those in New York City.
Despite the show’s popularity, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show has not been without controversy. In recent years, it has faced criticism for its lack of diversity and inclusion. The decision to pre-record and stream the show last year followed a decline in viewership, with controversial comments made by former executives regarding representation in the show.
Victoria’s Secret has been making efforts to transform and evolve, addressing past criticisms and aiming to be more inclusive. The brand’s creative officers have highlighted the changes and improvements made over the years, indicating a shift towards greater diversity on the runway.
As the excitement builds for the upcoming Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see how the event unfolds and whether it lives up to its promises of glamour, inclusivity, and a celebration of fashion and music.
