The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is one of the most iconic fashion events in the world, known for combining the luxury of lingerie with the spectacle of the runway and performances by renowned musical artists.
This year, it made a comeback after a long period of absence due to certain controversies, and as expected, it was a huge success. There were especially memorable moments, such as when Gigi Hadid made her appearance.
The modern top model even paid tribute to one of her closest friends, Taylor Swift, by mimicking a signature gesture the singer often uses in her performances during The Eras Tour. Her arrival was a long-awaited moment for the fans.
How much do models earn for the VS Fashion Show?
For the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, the earnings of models, especially the top “Angels”, can vary widely based on their contracts, previous modeling experience, and endorsements.
Top models like Adriana Lima and Gisele Bündchen have historically earned significant sums for their appearances on the runway. Several outlets reported that they typically take home between $700,000 and $1 million.
However, the figures can be even higher when considering long-term contracts and additional deals with the brand. Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum have leveraged their careers as Angels to build multi-million dollar fortunes.
For newer models or those participating in special campaigns, earnings tend to be more modest, but are still highly lucrative by industry standards. Kendall Jenner used to be the highest-paid model currently.
