Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2014 (GENERAL DISCUSSION)

Some people here said how they still like the 2005 show the most. 

I agree, I also like 2005+2006 the most (although I'm glad Heidi left and coudn't stand Heidi and Seal singing, sorry to offend someone) But I understand they want change, so I hope they could combine the best of the last shows with the earlier shows. 

 

Like in 2013 I like what they did with the decor and stage. In the Parisian Segment they projected the Place de la Concorde on the background and lamp posts on stage. And in 2010 they created this forest and let Emanuela de la Paula appear 'out of the jungle'. Also what they did in 2012 with the Diamonds segment, they projected a French castle on the background. That all was genius. So in some ways they definately develop and became better. In other ways they become worse. But what I don't like about the last shows it almost looks like a pop concert. Furthermore the overal colours are a bit too harsh. And all the waving and blowing kisses and making heart signs is too ridiculous. 

 

I do appreciate what they have done in the past years, in terms of themes and creativity on the stage, but they lost some of the pureness. I think 2008 was a good combination of old and new style, it was definately a transition year. In 2008 they wanted to do the bigger the better experience but still had style and elegance. But then it went downhill for me, although I still liked some segments in each year. Like the Game On in 2010, Diamonds in 2012 and Parisian segment in 2013 to name a few. 

 

But I don't have any illusions. I think the 2014 show will be in line with the 2012 and 2013 show. 

I personally think that the PINK segment is what needs the biggest changes. I mean, I understand that it is targeted for the college girl, but every year, it gets worse and worse in terms of casting and theme execution.

 

 

I love Sasha, but I don't want her anywhere near VS people are just gonna hate on her.

 

People are willing to hate on anyone, especially at BZ these days. Dunno if it´s some kind of a trend or just a way to let out their own insecurities.

 

Sasha is special, an Ice Princess. She´s been growing on me very strongly since Andy posted candids of hers in the Junkyard thread

 

Rather than focusing on weight, people should be more focused on the overal beauty and charisma of the model and the way she carries herself. Skinny girls can be sexy. Fuller girls can be sexy. Anyone can be sexy, no matter curves or not. It´s about the energy, especially on runway.

 

Totally agree with this! Natasha Poly is a prime example. In her VS days she was as skinny as a toothpick, but she knew how to use her body and walk in a way that was sexy and commanding.

 

VS needs to focus on girls with PRESENCE. Models that make one stare (in a good way) and command attention when they walk the runway. 

 

And are people really coming for Sasha Luss because of her weight? She has way more boobs than most of the current VS angels. The only thing holding her back was her ice blonde hair. Now that she is dirty blonde, it could definitely work!

 

Don't believe me?

 

Nudity

 

Well, that pic says it all!

I love her ice blonde hair - I think it's her best look

I can see Elisabeth Erm, Anna Ewers and Sasha Luss all being cast. They have that look to them. I can see Ondria Hardin debuting in PINK this year.

That pic Savanna posted, any ideas? Obviously could be anything but I'm hoping it's something elegant along the lines of crystals, fine China, jewelery box, beauty.....

Chandelier by Sia would be to perfect for something like that. Gaha.

It's soooo classy.

Promise :brows:

O yes, totally agree. Pink is the worst. remember Justin Bieber.

My dream cast for fashion show would be

Michelle Vawer

Daniela Lopez Osorio

Kendall Jenner

Emily Ratajowski

Alyssa Miller

Sara Sampaio

Shanina Shaik

Jessica Strother

Chrishell Stubbs

Lais Ribeiro

Bregje Heinen

Hannah Davis

Doutzen Kroes

Erin Heatherton

Candice Boucher

Julie Ordon

Kelli Gale

Solveig Mork Hansen

Sandra Kubicka

Hannah Ferguson

Yara Khmidan

Rosie H-W

Taylor Marie Hill

No Lindsay?

Begonia, a lot of those are good.  I would add:

Barbara Palvin

Toni Garrn

Kate Upton

Bar Refaeli

Chrissy Teigen

Emily DiDonato

Nina Agdal

Cintia Dicker

Jourdan Dunn

Irina Shayk

Basically, I'd like to see more girls who are successful in their own respect rather than primarily known for VS.  VS used to do this when they'd get Naomi, Carmen Kass, Marisa Miller, etc. for their shows. Even Gisele, Heidi, and Tyra weren't so exclusive to VS like their current girls are - clearly VS was just one of the many companies Gisele modeled for.

VS used to get the top sexy models of the moment rather than focusing on branding their Angels, and I loved that.

Regarding your list, I'm over Erin Heatherton (although I think guys like her) and I'm not big on Kendall Jenner, but I guess she'd bring some celebrity to the show...

Preview of the girls in Vogue UK November 2014 by Patrick Demarchelier:

^ Not a fan in the least

Elsa looks like she's starring a spider making it's way slowly down to Candice's head... "ugh Candice... spii... nevermind!" *smiles*

Candice bares a striking resemblance to my 60 year old Aunt. I'm not even kidding.

Adriana is giving the camera "fuck it I wanna go home and I wanna go back back to bed" face.

Lais is giving over sexual face that just doesn't belong with; Spider Profile, 60 year old Aunt and Bed Please

This would be my 'dream' (realistic) line-up if I were to cast the show this year. 35 girls total. Bolded girls are new models for the VSFS.

VS Dream CAst

So are the Angels getting a cover? I really hope so....it will be a nice thing to do from British Vogue. But no, I dont like those previews either.

No, Taylor Swift is on the cover.

Adri just posted this pic on her instagram, but she totally ignored Elsa from the pic! (i think she can be quite rude sometimes - "queen" lovers starting to throw hate in 3..2..1..)

^Um, she obviously wanted to have the picture more close up to show how horrible Candice looks. I'm sure it has nothing to do with Elsa. Always trying to start shit...

Also pretty sure she did not post that as it was promoting something and I doubt she would do so as thoroughly what with all the hashtags and all. And there's no typos. Come on now.

omg i cant believe Adriana just crop ELsa out of the picture O_O

Ed regrammed it and people started harassing him about Elsa and he basically called them crazy conspiracy theorists.

But really. Cropping out one person is

Come on, Elsa! Crop Adriana out.
