The Evolution of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show From 1995 to Now



1997

1995-1997: There were cardigans instead of wings in the inaugural Victoria’s Secret runway show, which was held at the Plaza hotel. Robes, knee-high boots and sometimes gloves also accessorized the simple bras, panties and negligees that went down the runway on models like Helena Christensen. Claudia Schiffer wore the first million dollar fantasy bra in ’96. In ’97, there were still no wings, but there was lots of dark red and dramatic silhouettes and Naomi Campbell. These shows took place around Valentine’s Day and weren’t aired on national television.
