Gigi Hadid Makes Appearance at Victoria’s Secret Open Casting in Miami

Gigi Hadid appeared at Victoria’s Secret’s open casting call in Miami at Dadeland Mall on May 21, 2026. The event was part of the brand’s multi city search for a new Angel to walk in the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

Victoria’s Secret confirmed Miami as one of its official casting stops, with the Dadeland Mall event scheduled for May 21 and May 22 from 11 AM to 7 PM local time. The brand said the search would narrow down semi finalists, with the selected winner earning a chance to walk the 2026 runway and potentially secure representation with IMG Models.

Hadid’s appearance drew attention from shoppers, contestants, and fashion outlets. Marie Claire reported that she attended the Miami casting and described her role there as a mentor and inspiration to aspiring Angels. Social media posts from the event also described Hadid judging the casting call, though Victoria’s Secret’s official event page does not specifically list her title as “judge.”
