Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray brought Filipino fashion to the international spotlight as she attended the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles, California, on Monday, October 19.
The former beauty queen graced the star-studded event as a special guest of the American lingerie brand, wearing a custom corset dress designed by Filipino fashion designer Job Dacon.
Gray shared her excitement on social media, writing, “So many incredible looks on the runway this year. Who tuned in?” She also posted on Instagram Stories, saying, “So happy to be here.”
The event also marked a milestone for Filipino representation as Filipino-Irish-British model Christina Nadin made her debut on the Victoria’s Secret runway, becoming the second Filipina to walk the prestigious fashion show after Kelsey Merritt in 2018.
Nadin appeared in the PINK segment, wearing a pink bra with shimmering heart details, a silver jacket, and black bell-bottom leggings.
Gray rose to international fame after winning the Miss Universe crown in 2018, becoming the Philippines’ fourth titleholder. She has since pursued hosting, music, and brand endorsements while continuing to champion health, education, and Filipino arts and culture.
