A live version of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show made a comeback after a six-year break on Tuesday night at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Models like Gigi and Bella Hadid, Adriana Lima, and Tyra Banks strutted down the runway in a variety of beauty looks that had fans talking online.
This year, lead hairstylist Duffy took a different approach from past shows by opting for slicked-back high ponytails, cool short cuts, and carefree waves instead of the usual bombshell waves. While some viewers missed the big, bouncy hair of previous shows, others appreciated the modern and sleek hairstyles that highlighted the models’ features.
The makeup at the show leaned towards the classic VS bombshell look, featuring sultry smoky eyes with a touch of shimmer, nude lips, and bronzed, glowing skin. Each model received a tailored brown smoky eye based on their eye shape and coloring, with a hint of glitter for that extra sparkle.
In terms of nails, the runway looks were kept clean and minimal with nude manicures to complement the overall glamour of the show. Lead nail artist Dawn Sterling aimed to create chic, glossy nails that would illuminate with the lighting and the models’ wings.
Overall, the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show brought a mix of modern and classic beauty looks that were both well-received and critiqued by fans. The hairstyles and makeup choices sparked conversations online, with viewers appreciating the diverse range of styles showcased on the runway.
