The annual runway event returned to Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City on October 18, drawing a front row packed with celebrities ahead of performances by Tate McRae, Megan Thee Stallion, and more.
The 2026 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show opened its pink carpet at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California on October 18, drawing a wide cast of celebrities before models — the brand's so-called 'Angels' — took to the runway in lingerie and bespoke angel wings.
Nicole Kidman and Vanessa Bryant arrived together, among the most prominent names on the carpet. Also photographed making their way in: Megan Thee Stallion, Tinashe, Victoria Monét, Lisa Rinna, Dylan Sprouse, Law Roach, Tan France, and designer LaQuan Smith, according to Vogue.
Maria Shriver attended alongside her son Patrick Schwarzenegger — who was also at last year's show — while Romy Mars, Charlotte Lawrence, Frankie Belle Stark, Harley Viera-Newton, Delilah Belle, True Whitaker, Alton Mason, and Adam Selman were also spotted on the carpet, per Vogue.
Pop group KATSEYE — members Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, Yoonchae, and Daniela Avanzini — attended ahead of their scheduled live performance during the show. Fellow performers Tate McRae and Megan Moroney also walked the carpet before taking the stage.
On the runway, the Angels lineup includes Gigi Hadid, Alex Consani, Precious Lee, Adriana Lima, Anok Yai, and Candice Swanepoel, according to Vogue. Page Six also lists Barbara Palvin and Irina Shayk among those set to walk.
The show is held at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City. Last year's event drew a front row that included Sarah Jessica Parker, Chloë Sevigny, Jeremy Pope, and Patrick Schwarzenegger, according to Vogue. Photo galleries from the 2026 carpet have been published by Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Page Six, and others; detailed outfit descriptions from those galleries are primarily visual.
Why it matters — The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show's return to the cultural calendar each year draws a convergence of fashion, music, and celebrity that functions as a major pop-culture moment and a barometer of the brand's ongoing relevance.
