The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which traditionally takes place in late November or early December to coincide with the holiday shopping season, is shrouded in secrecy this year. Will it take place in Shanghai for the first time as widely rumored? Why did the castings happen months earlier than usual in August — before most New York Fashion Week castings even kicked off? We don’t even have a date, people! But that’s no matter: Thanks to the magic of social media, we’ve seen models, agencies and the lingerie retailer itself start to reveal the most important pieces of the puzzle — the models who will walk the sparkly runway for the 2017 edition of the show.
For all of you VSFS enthusiasts out there, we’ve put together a guide to the confirmed cast for this year’s show — from Angels like Candice Swanepoel and Behati Prinsloo who are back from their maternity leave, to first-timers from the high-fashion space like Vanessa Moody, Amilna Estevao and Frida Aasen. The lineup is stacked with over 55 beauties, and, happily, is more diverse than ever before.

See all of the women walking in the 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in the gallery below; we will continue to update as more models are confirmed.
