Like a VHS tape, “We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcasts. Announce that the angels are returning to the runway. Models to the runway. Tune into the Victoria Secret Fashion Show live from New York City. October 15th. See you there.” The ‘tune in’ blast to action brings back old memories of the show for everyone who has long waited for its return.

Vintage fashion shows have never been televised without Lily Aldridge, as she has been the highlight of all of them. Her coming has marked the occasion as the event of the season with the Victoria Secret Fashion Show’s return. The show is a cultural emblem of the program’s existence, for its extravagant wings, costumes, and elite performances, plus the Victoria Secret Angels models. With Lily Aldridge, the 2025 Edition prepares to restore the magic lost that made the event the craze to test.

Their excitement and approval were instantly expressed by fans. In recent years, fans lamented the absence of the iconic Victoria’s Secret Angels. With the lack of star power, people fondly recalled “the real angels” of Victoria’s Secret with many agreeing. Another user commented, “Same. If it doesn’t have the real angels or lots of glamour, I’m not interested,” illustrating the sharp split with show’s fans.

Reacting to Aldridge’s return, a user wrote, “@lilyaldridge I only ever watched the VS fashion shows cause of you!!! Yassssssss I’m so excited 🦋 ✨.” This comment illustrates the role individual models, like Aldridge, play in the event, as a large part of the audience is drawn to the show simply because of her.

Other fans expressed their excitement as well, “Yay!!! Can’t wait to watch! 🤩🤍,” and “So so excited for this!!! 🤍.” One of Aldridge’s fans wrote, “Only to watch my favourite super model of all time! Love you Lil,” illustrating the strong relationship the fans share with the model. With “Can’t wait for u lils 🦋,” a fan responded, displaying the affectionate nicknames shared with Aldridge.

After the announcement, the fashion world started to think about what other former angels might attend. Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Behati Prinsloo all come to mind, and they all have their own fan bases. Their attendance could mark the 2025 show as a milestone, bridging old school and new fashion.

For the fashion industry, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is an important event. The show has also been an important platform to establish models, turning some into icons and setting trends for the following season. Its influence is well beyond the runway, affecting beauty standards, lingerie fashion, pop culture, and even the show’s music performances. Aldridge’s addition makes the 2025 show ready for a grand celebration.

Focusing on the activity in Aldridge’s posts reveals a different form of fan engagement. It’s not just the show that’s drawing interest, but the models as well. For many years, fans have been watching the careers of models and even the personal milestones of their favorites. Aldridge’s announcement feels like a reunion and celebration of the models and their fanbase that have been supporting them.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is just one event in the endless number of digital fashion events, yet it’s the only one that’s officiating physical allure and privacy. New York City will have live broadcasts that include musical performances, the iconic angel wings, and of course the flamboyant sets.
