Simon Simoudis: Everything to Know About the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show- Through My Eyes

It's again time for the lights, music, wings, and the most glamorous runway in the world. I, Simon Simoudis, have always been fashion crazy. This very love for fashion drew me into taking up my journey as a male beautician. Whenever there is a fashion event happening far away from my home here in Victoria, Australia, too, I, Simon Simoudis, don't forget to watch it on my TV. And today too, I can almost feel the buzz building across the globe. I, Simon Simoudis, am a fashion enthusiast who never skips a fashion show if it's being telecast on TV.

The 2025 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is back tonight, October 15. Fashion enthusiasts around the world are ready to be swept into its dazzling world. This year's show will once more take place in New York and will be promised to be the grandest.

For the rest of us who can't hop off to New York, good news: it's going to be streamed live on Prime Video, Amazon Live, or right across Victoria's Secret's Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok channels from 7 p.m. ET-that's the wee hours of Thursday morning down under in Australia.

Victoria's Secret started an iconic fashion show in 1995 in New York. It was an event that defined beauty standards, had star power galore, and attracted millions of viewers worldwide.

The models who were under contract with the company were called Victoria’s Secret Angels, and they were responsible for the event. From 2001, it acquired incredible popularity and millions of viewers. In the first years, the Fashion Show was in the days before Valentine’s Day, which was an attempt by the organizers to link it with a romantic theme. Later, it was shifted to the days around Christmas.

Then there was a lull; the event was criticized on many counts: The Me Too Movement, fourth-wave feminism, took its toll on the Show, and finally, to cap it all, indirect association with the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein led to the cancellation of the event.

It got restarted in the year 2024, but after a complete renovation. They tried to plug the loopholes through which it got closed. Fashion Show was no longer about lingerie and wings. It was inclusive and had become more about the art of fashion.

Now, in 2025, the person at the helm of this reinvention is Adam Selman. The man who once designed for Rihanna's Savage x Fenty line now leads the Victoria's Secret reinvention. As the new creative director, it would seem Selman isn't interested in recreating this old glamour but instead has the show get personal-down to every outfit designed to reflect the woman wearing it. No more uniform perfection. It is no longer just about fitting an image but celebrating uniqueness and diversity.

Of course, there is great music, too, at every Victoria's Secret show. This time, there will be women's power only on the stage. At least the choice of performers says much about what the brand stands for now.

And this, if I, Simon Simoudis, can perceive a brand different from what it used to be in the past, but one that learned from its mistakes, eager to move ahead with its uniqueness, style, and, of course, fashion.

Simon Simoudis: Harbour Bridge Protest: A City Divided, A Nation Reflects

In principle, there are very few in Australia who don’t support the Palestinian cause. And why shouldn’t we? The world is watching how women and children are being killed in thousands over the last two years, in the name of revenge, and to eliminate Hamas. What Hamas did on Oct 7, 2023, was abominable. But two wrongs don’t make a right. Hamas is a designated terrorist organization, but we don’t expect responsible countries to behave like terrorists. There must be ways to tackle the problem differently, but Israel didn’t choose to explore any other option.  Killing innocent women and children is something any civilized society cannot tolerate. I, Simon Simoudis , just can’t watch those horrific videos coming out of Gaza. Bombing and starving children in the name of fighting Hamas is something the world is no longer willing to tolerate. France, Britain, and now Canada, too, have announced that they will be recognizing the state of Palestine.  The March for Unity is being organiz...

Simon Simoudis - Sydney weather rainfall

For the last 24 hours up to Friday morning, August 22, 2025, Sydney has recorded more rainfall than it normally does in the entire month of August. According to the Bureau of Meteorology, this year’s August has already been the wettest since 1998, and the last 24 hours have been the wettest day this year.  Many records have been broken, and still, much more rain is expected in the coming days. Sydney has received 82mm of rainfall in the last 24 hours, till Thursday morning, and 70mm of rain is expected. I, Simon Simoudis , have many family members living in Sydney and NSW, and I am very worried about how the coming days are going to be for them. Rivers have already breached their banks, the dams are full, and there are forecasts of more heavy rainfall. There are possibilities of severe risk to the communities. People of New South Wales have already suffered a lot because of incessant rains this month, and it seems their woes aren’t going to end soon.  There have been reports t...

Simon Simoudis: Flying Low-Cost with Jetstar

Australia's budget airline, Jetstar, has launched a sale that has seen fares as low as $29 for 24 domestic routes. It has also put international flights to places like Singapore, Bali, and Tokyo at just $129. If you're an Aussie wanting to go on holiday, or a foreigner already in Australia, or plan to be here in the near future, here is something you would not want to miss. Jetstar plans to close off the sale at 11.59 pm AEST on August 29, or even earlier if the flights sell out. Be fast, folks, before it is too late. Apart from that, Jetstar is also holding a social media contest where the winners will win a trip to the Cook Islands. To me, Simon Simoudis , that was surprising. Because a few weeks back, Jetstar Asia, which is owned under the wing of Jetstar, was closed down. They had given two reasons for closing down. At first, given the rising costs, it was not feasible for them to fly at such low prices. It was becoming difficult for them to compete with other low-cost airl...
