The once-iconic Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is making a comeback, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
During the company’s 2022 earnings call on Friday, chief financial officer Timothy Johnson said the brand is seeking to revamp the former annual show following a four-year hiatus.
A Victoria’s Secret & Co. spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter that the brand is “always innovating and ideating in all spheres of the business to continue to put our customer at the center of all we do and reinforce our commitment to championing women’s voices and their unique perspectives.”
In November 2019, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was canceled amid several controversies surrounding the brand, including the late Jeffrey Epstein (Former corporate CEO Les Wexner’s close ties to the disgraced mogul, who was charged with the sex trafficking of underage girls), declining sales, and body image issues.
Months later, in February 2020, the company faced more backlash following a report from The New York Times that accused L Brands’, the parent company of Victoria’s Secret, former chief marketing officer Edward Razek of creating a “culture of misogyny, bullying and harassment.”
This wasn’t the first time the former top executive made headlines. The company announced the resignation of Razek in August 2019 after his controversial and out-of-touch comments in a Vogue interview the previous year, where he mentioned that there was no space for plus-size or transgender models in Victoria’s Secret fashion shows “because the show is a fantasy.” The statement led to backlash for the brand.
