I just saw the whole show, it was ok I guess. Lady Gaga did well. Probaly the location in the Palais was the best part of the show.

It does, but I think the CW doesn't really skew female anymore considering is now full of superhero shows.

Everything media related is skewing female these days. When it comes down to it, the VSFS/Angels have a larger female following. 

 

Maybe it's only because my personal experience is with my girlfriends/other girls I am vaguely acquainted with/follow on twitter/instagram/so on, but the big followings of shows (save a few big ones like GOT and TWD, I'd bet those have slightly larger male followings) are made up of girls, younger ones, especially superhero shows and especially the ones on the CW. That's the demo people really want to hit, the obsessive teenage girl demo is the dream, if you've got that following the pressure on your 18-49 rating eases up. See shows like Supernatural that keep getting renewed.

I changed my miind. I never thought I would say this, BUT I think the 2016 is the best show since the last years. The location is amazing and magical, and the showed it very well on camera. The music was good enough, Lady Gaga fit in very well and Bruno Mars did good. (I am very glad Taylor Swift wasn't here). 

 

The outfits were good and like most of the models, although Bella and Kendall don't impress me. 

I liked the walk of Adriana. 

 

The only thing I hated were the in between segments/ They are the worst because every year we hear the same thing: how hard you have to exercise, how great VS made the models, about social media etc.

And I hate the camera work and how it is edited. It looks like the camera men were drunk. I really got dizzy from the way the filmed and edited it.. I like to see the whole runway, not parts of bodies and faces. 

 

Best show in years but they need to get new camera crew and different editing, that would make the show much better.

The 18-49 demographic is crucial because they have the most disposable income and ability to make multiple purchases over and over again. A 16 year old most likely doesn't have a career allowing the type of income that allows frequent shopping. I would even push it as far as 30-45 is a crucial demographic considering many 18-29s are underemployed or unemployed these days.

 

The younger demographic is the most crucial in advertising not because they have the most disposable income but because brands want to get people when they are young so that they’ll be loyal customers for many years to come.

Supernatural actually has a pretty 50/50 audience when it comes to men and women. However, the fandom skews largely female.

In theory, this works for many other lifestyle brands and this is what they teach in school. But it doesn't work for lingerie since lingerie is so closely linked to the maturity of the body/womanhood and lingerie also serves a functional purpose.

VS believed in this theory with Pink but it is not translating to sales with mainline. Mainline sales are on a steep and steady decline. This is why they had to shut down so many categories. Younger girls these days want authenticity and that's why Aerie is crushing VS in the teen demographic. Yet, Aerie isn't making a dent with adult women.

No, not at all. Just surprised about the 2015 opening thingy. Thought it was so lackluster.

 

The VSFS will never not be a good idea for VS. It's their main yearly publicity, but as long as they aren't completely dependent on it.

 

I thought the 2015 opening was quite epic. I know someone who was there in the audience she said  TV didn't do it justice.

 

Well VS thinks it is a good idea and that's a fact. And VS doesn't solely depend on the show for publicity.

Behati opened the show in 2015 right? Well I think the opening was rubbish, at least on tv. The outfit was terrible and didn't like the song for an opening. 

 

Then I would prefer the opening in London 2014, I would think of that as epic.

You would be surprised at about how much most of these shows are 50/50, but you are right, VSFS fills in like 70/30, GOT fills in at about 45/55.  But they skew well on 18-49, considering they only had 6.5 million viewers total

I finally watched the show today and (for me) it was better than 2015 and 2014 shows. Somehow the energy seemed better.  And this year I liked some of the music and performers. Still not a great show. Like everybody said it felt rushed. Also I really miss the days when all the Angels had 3 outfits...

My favorite Angels were Adriana (Queen), Elsa (her opening was great, better than Behati and Candice), Jasmine, Sara and Jo. And other favorite models were Irina (such a goddess), Grace and Kelly Gale. None of the others stood out...

Last good show for me was in 2013 (Parisian nights) and I could watch some of the older shows (2003-2008) over and over again... this one doesn't feel like that, but it's still an improvement from the last year's show. 

 

I think Georgia was amazing and i really like Liu Wen. Bella was nothing

I just watch the show, work don't let me do it on monday and this are my thoughts:

 

Opening: I dont like the no-introduction of the angels, well, they have like 25 

 

The Road Ahead: It was so similar to "Exotic Traveler" of 2014. But it was good, maybe too much accesories. I really like Liu Wen!! She's beautiful!! Also i think the music was good but doesnt fit with the theme. Weak closing with Alessandra.

Mountian Romance: Dont like it, dont hate it. The song fit well. Love Lily A pose at the end of her walk, hate Flavia interaction with Gaga, im boring with the hair flip of Iza!! Romee was missing, she has to stop for posing at the end and then we didnt see her more. 

Pink: Love it !!! Maybe too much similar outfits, but we dont have messy outfits like previous years. The outfit were simple and I apreciate it. Lais look great, also Lameka and Bridget. One of the best Pink segment in years.!

Secret Angels: One of my fav of the show. Adriana, QUEEN. Irina and Liu were goddess!! Bella... dead as fuck, she has no expresion, TOO MUCH HIGH FASHION WALK.

Dark Angels: A little bit messy, some outfits were good and someone dont. Like Devon!! Joan look weard with that outfits and the wings were weard too. 

BNA: Love it!! All the outfits were good, perfect for close the show! Stella, Maria, Georgia and Irina were my favs.

 

Closing: Too short!!! Too much edited.

 

General Opinion/Random Thoughts: 

1) I think that the themes were a little bit similar, TRA with MR and SA with DA, i will put them in different order... TRA-SA-PINK-MR-DA-BNA. I didnt remember wich model walk in SA and DA cause they were too similar, much black and lace. 

2) Every year is the same, the first girl had the runway for herself, and at the end they have like 5 and all reaching the others. They should calculate how many models are and how much time they have, and let the pass to the runway every 20 seconds for example. Romee has to stop cause Flavia was posing, almost the same with body by iza. 

3) I dont like when they edit and it doest look cohesive. And if they had 2 tapings, why choose the one with Falvia and Gaga posing and Romee behind... 

4) Simple is more (menos es mas)... we wanna see the lingerie!!!

Jo opening was just okay. She seems really tired. Her eyes. She needs some rest, some sleep

Jo's eyes are always like that, she has the Vlada permanent eye-bag thing going on. But she does look worn out, I think she needs to stop working out so much - it's aging her
