Who Will be the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2026 Runway Models

One thing on the mind of fashion lovers right now is the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, happening in Fall 2026. And right now, the brand’s runway model lineup has fans in the pop culture space wondering who’ll make the cut.

Interestingly, VS confirmed that this 2026 runway show is taking a new direction. It’s shifting from the usual agency pipeline and toward direct talent discovery through a nationwide casting initiative. So, an everyday applicant could land a runway spot alongside the fashion industry’s biggest names. And that has got prediction market traders watching closely. Let’s find out more.

What We Know So Far About Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026

Victoria’s Secret ran an open casting call for models (called Angels), so they could have a shot at landing a runway spot. Besides that, they could receive an exclusive contract with IMG Models. Yes, that same agency that represents names like Gigi and Bella Hadid and Karlie Kloss.

Interestingly, VS is turning the entire casting journey (which ran from April 6 through May 28, 2026) into a docuseries titled “Lights, Camera, Angels.” This move adds a layer of storytelling to the runway show.

The application is closed, which means a selection is imminent or already made. So, there’s a chance an applicant from the series will appear on one of fashion’s most-watched stages. And this unpredictability has caught the attention of top prediction market apps like Kalshi, where traders are wondering who’ll become the 2026 runway models.

Legacy Models To Appear On VS Runway Show

While speculation remains about which applicants will emerge from the casting process, VS has decided to feature runway legends and favourites in this year’s runway show. Here’s how they appear on the Kalshi market.

Do note that trading activity and prices can change based on news, announcements, and market sentiments leading up to the runway show in the fall. So, do well to check Kalshi directly for current prices. Let’s review each of these runway models.

Adriana Lima

Lima was confirmed as one of the first six models announced for the 2025 runway. Her return is now part of VS’s current brand story, making her the strongest name in prediction-market discussions.

Candice Swanepoel

Swanepoel featured in the star-studded 2025 lineup and has a history with Victoria’s Secret. Her consistency over recent years makes her a top name to consider ahead of the 2026 runway show.

Gigi and Bella Hadid

Gigi and Bella are both directly connected to IMG Models, which makes their names naturally part of the conversation. Any confirmed announcement involving either would move the market quickly for both.
