Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Heads to London: At a private press conference Tuesday morning, Victoria’s Secret Angels Adriana Lima and Candice Swanepoel joined the brand’s chief marketing officer Ed Razek to announce the move of the annual fashion show, which began in 1998, from New York to London. “Candidly… when we came to London, no one knew who we were," Razek said at the company's new Bond Street location. "We’ve started opening stores in London—I think we’ve got six stores in Great Britain at the moment and we hope to open more here...We found a good [show] location that made sense in Earls Court. It just kind of all came together this year.” The annual spectacle will take place on December 2. [Victoria's Secret Press Release]
