Victoria's Secret Makes History With First Openly Trans Models

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Models Alex Consani and Valentina Sampaio made history Tuesday night as the first openly transgender women to strut down the runway during one of Victoria’s Secret’s iconic fashion shows. “I can’t even say anything other than thank you <3.” Sampaio commended Victoria’s Secret for its inclusivity ahead of her time in the spotlight, telling People: “This moment is one I will cherish for a lifetime.” “Today, the Victoria’s Secret family has shown the world that being trans is just as exceptional and beautiful as anyone else on that runway,” the Brazilian model told People. Dimitrios Kambouris via Getty Images In 2018, the fashion show’s executive producer, Ed Razek, used offensive and outdated language when Vogue asked if Victoria’s Secret had considered featuring trans models on the catwalk. Sampaio began modeling for VS’s sister brand, Pink, in 2019, while Cosani was featured in the company’s Amazon Prime Video fashion show documentary “The Tour ’23.” Advertisement
