Update, November 5: Who could use some eye candy to brighten up their Monday? This should do the trick: This year's Victoria's Secret Dream Angels Fantasy Bra has officially been revealed. Elsa Hosk is the lucky Angel to wear the bra this year, which was made by Atelier Swarovski and boasts a whopping 2100 Swarovski-created diamonds totaling 71 carats. Per a press release, the bra took four craftsmen 930 hours to make and is valued at an impressive $1 million. 

Previous wearers of the Fantasy Bra include Gisele Bündchen, Tyra Banks, and Heidi Klum, so you know Hosk is in good company. If you don't have a $1 million lingerie budget, Victoria's Secret has announced that a version of the Fantasy Bra will be available in stores and on its website on November 29. The bra will boast Swarovski crystals and will retail for $250. Scroll down to see the million-dollar sparkling bra for yourself.

Update, November 1, 2018: The countdown is on. The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show films on November 8 and airs on ABC on December 2. While models like Martha Hunt and Jasmine Tookes have been busy getting their elaborate wings fitted in New York City, the rest of us are bracing ourselves for the over-the-top spectacle.

Victoria's Secret already announced that Mary Katranzou will be this year's designer collaborator (following Balmain in 2017), and now the brand has revealed the show's lineup of performers. Halsey, Rita Ora, Shawn Mendes, Bebe Rexha, Kelsea Ballerini, and The Chainsmokers will all take turns performing on the runway at this year's show. Excited yet? Scroll down to get a glimpse at the models who are confirmed for the show. (No word yet if all the Kardashian-Jenners will revive their Halloween costumes.)

Originally published on September 10, 2018: You've just started accepting the fact that summer has come and gone, and now Victoria's Secret wants you to look ahead to the holiday season. The retailer has already confirmed a handful of models to walk in its annual fashion show extravaganza in December, and it's getting us excited for the over-the-top event.

One of the highlights of the announcements: Winnie Harlow has officially secured her first-ever spot in the show. "I had a break down before I walked into the most nerve wrecking casting of my life," she explained on Instagram. "I asked my driver to go around the block twice before I could walk into the @VictoriasSecret offices so I could recoup, and remember (while my trainer @bodybymato reminded me on the phone through sobs … how hard I’ve been working!"

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
