Kate Moss’s appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was the biggest buzz surrounding the event’s return five years after its cancellation.

The lingerie brand’s 2018 fashion show was canceled after receiving low ratings and being criticized for being sexist, outdated and lacking in diversity.

The show also included musical performances by Cher, Tyla and Blackpink’s Lisa.

The fashion show, launched in 1995, typically attracts millions of viewers each year and big-name performers such as Rihanna and Taylor Swift.

But ratings fell and controversies dogged the brand, including Former Marketing Executive Ed RazekIn 2018, he apologized for comments about why there were no transgender and plus-size models on the runway.

Alex Consani, another transgender model, also makes an appearance.

Plus-size models like Ashley Graham and Paloma Elsesser have also walked the famous runway, but given the company’s history, some believe this It’s a symbolic move.

Another returning model is Adriana Lima, who walked the runway in 2018 before the show was cancelled.

Janie Schaffer, the event’s executive producer, emphasized its diversity, saying there were 50 models from 25 different countries.

But despite this, “the catwalks are still dominated by traditional, attractive, slender models,” Maher writes.

This got a response Aiyana Ishmael, deputy editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue”, she wrote: “As I watched one skinny model after another walk down the runway, I was transported back to my childhood living room, watching women who didn’t look like me set the standards that most women would never be able to beauty standards achieved.
