Victoria's Secret is aiming to get back in the game with their "new version" of the famed fashion show which will be returning this year after a four-year hiatus. During their Friday 2022 earnings conference call, CFO Timothy Johnson stated that they will be investing in the business to support the new fashion show. CEO Martin Waters noted that the company has been bringing in more diverse models, ambassadors, and identities as part of their recent initiatives.
This year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is coming off the cancellation of their 2019 show and the 2018 show receiving their lowest ratings to date. In 2018, former chief marketing officer Ed Razek did an interview with Vogue where he expressed that they would be accused of pandering if they had done Rihanna's Savage X Fenty show. He also claimed that no one had any interest in their 2000 plus-size television special. This caused some people to be offended by his comments, leading to an apology from Razek. In 2019, L Brands founder Les Wexner announced their reconsideration of the fashion show, stating that they believe network television is not the right fit.
This is the first full year that Victoria's Secret is an independent public company.
