If These Designs Are Any Indication, the VS Fashion Show Will Be Very Different This Year

For the second year in a row, an unexpected designer collection will be coming to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The lingerie brand previously partnered with Balmain on a collection both for the runway and in stores. This time, Victoria's Secret announced it will be collaborating with Mary Katrantzou for its show later this year in New York City.

The brand recently unveiled a look at four items from the forthcoming collection, which already seems like a big departure from last year's edgier one. While the Balmain collection typified Creative Director Olivier Rousteing's sexy and overembellished designs, Katrantzou will offer more playful lingerie, athletic apparel, and sleepwear. Referred to as the "Queen of Prints," the Athens-born, London-based designer recently celebrated her brand's 10th anniversary during London Fashion Week.

"Everything that Victoria's Secret creates is about a woman feeling confident and empowered - and also having fun with what she is wearing," Katrantzou said in a press statement. "This collaboration is going to be bold, fun and playful."

As with the Balmain collection, the Katrantzou collection will be featured during the runway show, and select looks will later be carried in stores and online. Ahead, get a sneak peek at the collection and browse Katrantzou's previous designs, as well as last year's Victoria's Secret designer collection.
