Details are usually released six months in advance of the December spectacle.

But this year's date for the Paris show was only released yesterday and the venue is yet to be announced.

And that is because organisers fear terrorists may target the star-studded event, has reported.

Supermodels like Alessandra Ambrosio, Kylie Jenner and Adriana Lima usually walk down the runway in New York for the event.

Exceptions have included London in 2014 and Cannes in 2000.

But the decision to choose Paris this year has prompted organisers to be tighter with security.

The show will come barely a year since the Paris attacks in which 130 were killed by jihadists, including scores in the Bataclan theatre.

In July, 84 were left dead after being mown down by a lorry-driving terrorists in the southern coastal city of Nice.

The attacks have left France on a high-level of alert.

Organisers of Victoria's Secret are understood to be working with French officials to ensure tight security for the A-list event.

It will likely see Jenner return to Paris for the first time since her sister Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in her luxury apartment earlier this month.
