The models of the famous American lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret once made an era. The brand’s exclusive “Angel” models are particularly popular, and have produced numerous supermodels such as Miranda Kerr, Karlie Kloss, and Candice Swanepoel.
Vichy models have been the object of admiration for women all over the world, but as diversity has come to be called for, the brand has come under criticism for “imposing a uniform beauty on women,” and the annual fashion show was canceled in 2018. In June 2021, the brand underwent a major rebranding, abolishing its angel system and instead using people who embody diversity as its new “VS Collective” billboard. This year, Victoria’s Secret is said to be holding its first runway show in four years.
Even though the angel system has been abolished, former angels are still active, being selected as models for advertisements and appearing in fashion-related magazines.
