Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show takes the stage by storm

By Amy Geldean

The 2018 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show featured stunning models, alluring outfits and outstanding performances Sunday night as it aired on ABC.

New York City hosted this year’s show as famous angels like Adriana Lima and Behati Prinsloo took over the runway.

The most anticipated part of the show landed with the legendary Fantasy Bra. Elsa Hosk, Angel since 2015, was chosen to wear the $1 million Dream Angel Fantasy Bra paired with slender, feathery wings.

The show gave viewers an insight into how much work goes into being a model for Victoria’s Secret. Training for the Angels ranges from boxing with Alexina Graham, Angel since 2017, to yoga with Stella Maxwell, Angel since 2015.

Victoria’s Secret said goodbye to one of its most prominent Angels, Adriana Lima, who has been an Angel for almost 20 years. Lima teared up as she blew one final kiss to the audience. The heartbreaking emotions from all the other models showed Lima’s lasting impact on the show.

The show featured amazing performances from musicians like Halsey, The Chainsmokers, and Rita Ora. Halsey beautifully sang her current top hit “Without Me” while the Angels strutted down the runway.

The colorful and extravagant outfits stood out like in previous years. The clever use of angel wings adds to the idea that this show is a fantasy.

The addition of Mary Katrantzou’s new holiday collaboration with Victoria’s Secret brought the show together. This marvelous segment included bright and bold prints adding to the show’s feminist theme. Jasmine Tookes opened this segment wearing a floral and fashionable set of wings matched with a colorful long-sleeve top.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2018 captured the vision of viewers while adding a taste of their new collaborations. The stunning models, flashy outfits and fascinating performances all contribute to the success of the show.
