Gigi Hadid will also not be walking in the upcoming show. The model took to Twitter to share the update, “I’m so bummed I won’t be able to make it to China this year. Love my VS family, and will be with all my girls in spirit!! Can’t wait to tune in with everyone to see the beautiful show I know it will be, and already can’t wait for next year! 🙂 x”

One model that will hopefully not have any trouble getting into China is Elsa Hosk, who is slated to wear the brand’s Swarovski look, which is to celebrate Victoria’s Secret’s 15-year “Crystal Anniversary”.
