New York, USA – There’s a quiet shift underway in how stardom intersects with fashion, and Triptii Dimri stands right at the cusp of it. The first-ever Indian brand ambassador for Victoria’s Secret, she was backstage in a black corset and skirt, speaking to the media moments before stepping out for the official announcement. The energy in the room was palpable, and it was clear that she had just made history. In conversation with The Hollywood Reporter India, Dimri reflected on what this association means to her—not just as a professional milestone, but as a representation of Indian women on a global stage.
“It means a great deal to me. It’s a brand that I’ve long admired,” Dimri said. “I remember watching the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show as a kid with my sister and being mesmerised by it. Now that I’ve gotten the opportunity to be an ambassador and represent my own country, I feel extremely proud. It’s also wonderful to represent Indian women and their confidence.” Her appointment marks a significant step for Victoria’s Secret, which has been undergoing a brand transformation to embrace greater diversity and inclusivity.
Dimri also opened up about how her personal style has evolved over the years. “Earlier, I would follow the trends, wear what everybody else was wearing to look cool. But I think I failed at that and now, my style involves anything that I feel comfortable in, anything that makes me feel more like myself,” she said. She expressed a love for structured, tailored looks and a firm aversion to anything uncomfortable. When asked about her off-duty style, she revealed, “Everything from the Summer Signature collection. It’s just too comfortable.” Looking ahead, Dimri said she is seeking roles that challenge her as an actor and stories that feel authentic, real, and honest.
