The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on 18 October at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City followed a clear blueprint: the changing seasons. According to Reuters, flower petals, snowflakes and metallic looks defined the segments. "I actually did the four seasons, and then I added in a second Winter spot," said Adam Selman, the show's executive creative director. The audience saw spring, summer, autumn and two winter chapters, with a dedicated block for the younger Pink line in the middle.
The footwear partner was also new. For the first time Victoria's Secret worked with Paris-based designer Amina Muaddi; in 2024 and 2025 the Venetian label René Caovilla supplied the shoes, and earlier partners included Brian Atwood, Nicholas Kirkwood and Sophia Webster. Muaddi contributed styles such as the Alexa Glass Slipper pump, the Gigi sandal and the Mini Camelia Sling and Alexa Sling from her winter 2026 collection, plus custom pairs in pink, black and white with silver and gold details.
According to the trade site Selecta Bisso, Kylie Jenner wore clear Amina Muaddi heels in a glass-slipper style for her runway debut. Victoria's Secret has posted the second winter segment, 'Winter Reprise', as a separate video on its YouTube channel.
