Kelsey Merritt, Duckie Thot, and 16 More To Walk For Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2018

By

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is one of the most sought-after fashion shows in the industry. And to be a part of it is a huge honor for models in the fashion industry. It has become such a spectacle with some of the highest-paid models in the industry gracing the runway, like Kendall Jenner, Gigi and Bella Hadid, and Liu Wen only to name a few.

Unlike other fashion shows, VSFS takes it to a whole new level with the annual musical performers that fans wait for every year. Last year, Harry Styles, Miguel, and Leslie Odom performed. Back in 2016, Lady Gaga, The Weeknd, and Bruno Mars danced and serenaded the models. Now, we have 18 new faces to look forward to seeing down Victoria’s Secret runway this year. Here are the new names that are about to walk this year’s VS show for the first time:

1. Kelsey Merritt
