The History of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show
The first year didn't even have wings.
The 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show marks the 21st ever for the brand. Starting in 1995, the lingerie behemoth began putting on the runway show of the season, though it has gone through many different iterations since its inception. With humble beginnings at the Plaza Hotel, they've hit everywhere from New York City to London, Miami and even Cannes — and they’re headed to Paris this year. The VS Fashion Show is now quite the spectacular with musical guests, 40-pound Angel wings, and an army of 54 models walking this season (including 14 official Angels) but it didn't start out that way. Let’s take a trip down memory lane before the 2016 show airs on December 5.
