YouTube is the show's new streaming home. The 2024 and 2025 shows streamed on Amazon. YouTube says some show videos will carry product tags that link to Victoria's Secret items, and it has added a "VS Angel Wings" effect for Shorts.
Who is walking?
Victoria's Secret has announced a mix of longtime Angels and newer faces. Models named by Daily Front Row and Marie Claire include:
| Group | Models |

Elsa Hosk returns for the first time since 2018, when she wore the $1 million Dream Angels Fantasy Bra. The brand said casting updates would continue up to the show, so the final lineup may include names not listed here.

Four acts, all women:
- Katseye, the global girl group

What is new this year?

- A new platform. The show streams on YouTube instead of Amazon.
- A weekend slot. It airs on a Sunday evening.
- A new Angel, chosen on YouTube. The seven-episode series Angels Among Us followed a nationwide casting search. The winner is set to be revealed live on the runway. The remaining contestants named by Daily Front Row were Andreína Martínez, Solange Omon and Tatyana Tinsley. The series runs on YouTube through November 22.
Why the show matters to Victoria's Secret
The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was one of television's biggest fashion events from the late 1990s through the 2010s. The brand cancelled it in 2019 as ratings fell and its image drew criticism. It brought the show back in 2024 with a broader range of models alongside its best-known Angels, and moving it to Los Angeles and YouTube this year is the latest step in that reboot.
