Which Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was the first to take place in China?

The story behind the answer

The 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was the first Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to take place in China.

The event was held in Shanghai on November 20, 2017, and broadcast internationally later that month. It marked a major expansion for the brand’s annual production into the Chinese market.

The Shanghai show is sometimes confused with the 2016 show, which took place in Paris, or the 2018 show, which returned to New York City. The 2017 production also became notable for its complicated visa process for some international participants.

The show featured established Angels and newer models, along with musical performances and the brand’s runway collections. Its location made it one of the most geographically distinctive editions in the show’s history.
