Valentina Sampaio and Alex Consani Make History as First Trans Women to Take Part in Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

Valentina Sampaio and Alex Consani have carved a historic path by becoming the first transgender models to grace the runway of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, marking a significant inclusion milestone. Valentina, who originally partnered with the brand in 2019 and made history as the first trans model in a Victoria’s Secret campaign, expressed her gratitude for this monumental occasion. She reflected on the experience saying, "This moment is one I will cherish for a lifetime," as it upholds the beauty and dignity of transgender representation on such a prestigious stage. This is prepared by SSP.

On October 15 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in New York City, as part of the reinvented and more inclusive iteration of the fashion show—renowned for its glamour and entertainment, Valentina showcased a striking ensemble that combined a black satin bra, matching underwear, and a bejeweled fishnet skirt complimented by oversized earrings and a dramatic bow accessory. The makeup accentuated bronzy shades to align with her outfit’s metallic accents. Consani, rocking the runway with a Sequin Shimmer Bra Top & High-Waist Short Set available online, joined her in making history.

The show's return from a six-year suspension reflects a modern twist and heightened inclusivity, as affirmed by their Instagram announcement and ongoing client dialogues. This revival aims not just to glamorize fashion but also to echo who Victoria’s Secret stands for today—captivating all with finely-tailored lyrical performances and transformative inclusivity.

Earlier, SSP reported that Sofia Richie has opened up about challenging pregnancy.
