Also wondered how would the fashion show looked like if Constance, Sui, Maria(?), Jacq returned, think Constance and Jacq would look happy if they returned.

I also would’ve loved to have seen non-Angel regulars make a return. I know we got Isabeli, Joan, Liu Wen, but I wanted more. Would’ve been nice to see Magda, Sui He, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Lily D, Cindy, Maryna, etc. Constance would’ve been super interesting, because she’s pregnant with her second child right now, and she would’ve fit in with VS’s body inclusivity push. I’m still pissed that she missed the 2016 Paris show; it would’ve been a great last show for her, in her home country. I can’t be too mad, she’s basically the Adriana of Etam for the past decade and opened their last show pregnant so that’s my consolation. 😅

Any signs of candice? 

Jojo put no effort at all lol.

They don't spend enough money on stylists. 

I don't think it was that bad? 2015 was much worse for example

A Magda comeback would be awesome, but I think she's done with VS. Also seems content with hf modeling being her bread and her own business.

We're getting old man, all the models of our time are growing up too and having families or love lives.  I can see names like Joan and Liu Wen hustling, but every other names we know from the Sophia's lineup are probably prioritizing other areas of their lives.

Also, not the public realizing VS' woke movement 🤣, but hey they asked for inclusivity.

That is the DailyMail, I would take anything they publish with a grain of salt. Clearly the show wasn't too bad, as of right now it has barely been 12 hours since the show was livestreamed and it already has over 12 million views, so I'd call that a big win for VS.

I hope we get some BTS videos, like the making of the show, or fittings or something... I'm cravinggggg

I hoped for pink carpet but apparently there's nothing like that this year  🫠

Once upon a time, whenever the VSFS happened, the mods would have to be in the the gen discussion handing out warnings and bans like candy because people were RUTHLESS. The craziest arguments would break out because someone said they didn't like a model's ankles or whatever. It's nice everyone is being so chill about it all. Honestly, the wings bar a couple were trash, some of the models look awful (aint namin' names), but there's something super classic and 1999/2000s about this show. It feels very barebones in a good way. The budget was $6.00 dollars and a granola bar and I think slightly better outfits and better models would have really made the show pop.

Seems people love bella outfit, yes she was gorgeous.

Show was not bad, outfits were mid they can do much better, still not into the hf models (but i have to admit some of them looked pretty good), hated the hair specially the bun, performances of Lisa and Tyla were pretty good, Cher was meh. Screen timing was a mess. Doutzen and Behati bring nothing. Kate Moss looked like she was forced to be there. Tyla has a better catwalk than Lila Moss. But is just my opinion.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to keep the thread updated, see you next year 💋

So, I looked at 5 different photography sites for images. Last night you could get the pictures in UHQ

Now, those same exact pictures have been resized across every site to be medium quality even if you're paying for the images.

They do not want anyone having large quality images from VS atm. And I know it's just VS because other images that are non-VSFS related are still huge

Getty is impossible to get HQ due to several factors. 

Getty has updated their code, making it impossible to bypass. The new watermark triggers an AI effect on the images, requiring cleanup. Previously, the watermark was a flat grey bar; now, it includes shapes and gradients of grey. Because of these changes, downloading without payment is impossible. Unless you're willing to pay $550 USD for a single image, the only option is for me to download, process them through AI, and clean them up in Photoshop.

In addition to the Getty watermark issue. They're now allowing Photographers to send in less then perfect photos, and they aren't cleaning them up unless you spend the $500 dollars for the image.

This is shit quality....
