Victoria's Secret Fashion Show
In 1995, Victoria's Secret held its first fashion show. It received worldwide press and was called the "lingerie event of the century".

The company made history in 1999, being the first to broadcast a live fashion show online and simultaneously at Times Square. It drew 1.5 million viewers, with many others unable to view the show. The fashion show was advertised on the Super Bowl.

In 2000, the show was held in Cannes, France during the Cannes Film Festival to raise funds for the Cinema Against AIDS charity, it was able to raise $3.5 million.

In 2001, Victoria's Secret Fashion Show made its debut on television broadcasted on abc, able to draw millions of viewers and also its share of controversy. Each time the program has aired, Federal Communications Commission gets bombarded with complaints.

In 2004, instead of the annual fashion show, The Angels (Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bundchen, Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio) did an Angels Across America Tour, a grassroots campaign for the brand visiting four major cities, New York, Miami, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

The 2007 show will feature performance by Spice Girls and gains prominence as the first American TV debut of the band after their comeback.

The fashion show features mostly lingerie and a multi-million-dollar "Fantasy Bra". In 2006, Victoria's Secret's sub-brand Pink made its debut on the runway. The show has since evolved into a lavish event with elaborate costumed-lingerie, varying music and set design according to the different themes running within the show. The show attracts hundreds of celebrities, and entertainers, with special performers and/or acts every year. The giant angel wings worn by the models, as well as other wings of various forms and sizes such as butterfly, peacock, or devil wings, are Victoria's Secret's fashion trademark. The fashion show is also a meeting of today's supermodels, who are always posing in the middle, after the final walk.

In the past, most of the clothing exhibited was not available to the general public, but in 2005, the show was specifically redesigned to feature clothing available to the general public through the catalogue
