Wow, it hasn't even been a week since Adriana has left and VS is already crashing down. Like their CEO just resigned. I hope Adriana realized how blessed she is, because she left the brand at the perfect timing. Its not looking good for them and her departure was already gonna effect them. Now with their CEO also leaving, for sure things are going to get worse. Adriana seriously left at the perfect time. She won't have to deal with the bullshit thats likely to come

True, I don’t think she needs to like a specific person from a country but it’d still be strange of her to be absolutely infatuated with a place yet mock someone with an accent from said country.

Yeh but doesn't have to be a brazilian accent.. Maybe it is her accent from Bahia (?) and lot of people mock about the accent of people of come from Bahia .. even the brazilians they make some not funny jokes about it.. so maybe Candice did this .. I don't doubt since Candice has the fame to be a Queen B. Diva

What do you think it's gonna change about VS with the CEO leaving?

I have no idea. Not at all. I am just glad Adriana doesn't have to be apart of it. Some kind of change will have be made though. I am just glad that she seemingly got a very deserving good bye.

They could have waited to announce the CEO change after the show tho, this is getting them press, yes, but negative one. But as long as they don't ruin Adriana's goodbye, I don't really care, I'll stop anyway giving much importance or following to VS after December 3 (damn time zones it's too late in Italy to see it Iive I have work the day after ) when I can get the show on torrent and the eventual Adriana stuff if she attends the viewing party. I'm sorry for Lais, Lily and the few other girls I like there, but VS is inesorably going downhill in the grave they dig themselves with their stupid decisions, one they started to build since at least 2014. Adriana came out at the right time like a legend, the greatest Angel ever, a symbol of integrity, dignity, inspiration, kindness and success earned through years of hard work and following real values, not overnight with a few selfies and a rich family famous more for their scandals then from the good they did. That's what matters to me at least.

I just saw the CEO of VS Pink will leave too .. and do the vsfs it's not worth it anymore, since they are losing audience and money, so I don't know for how long will be the show .. So it's a good thing Adriana leaving the brand like the legendary angel .. and since the show will airs dec 2 .. I don't think they will ruin Adri's goodbye .. I really would love to see her in the viewing party .. but  I don't thing she wwill be , but who knows .. I just want to see the full show and see what they Did for Adriana.

I had always wanted to see Adri stay til she was 40, but I now agree with a lot of you that this year was a good time for her to leave.  VS is such a mess that's it's actually getting a bit embarrassing. This was a downright terrible year for them.   On to better things!

Have Adriana already did a jewelry or fragrance commercial/campaign ? I would love to see her doing that

Fragrance yes, outside VS Marc Jacobs, and it was stunning.

Jewelry tho, she did something for Bulgari I believe very young, the 90s or very early 2000s, but it was just pictures, and maybe something else but again more for magazines and editorials, never big campaigns with tv commercials. For Chopard she was at the store opening in Miami last year (the event she met Ricky Martin and Rita Ora), but not a campign or anything else outside Cannes appearances.

I'd love to see her doing jewelry, and other fragrance ones too, she would be amazing!!!

Thank for the answer! I would love to see her in big campaigns like Gisèle for Chanel ! She definitely has the face for it!

The fact that Adriana has remained humble through all of it is amazing. Because I am so sure, nobody else's departure from VS will ever be as big and meaningful as Adriana's. Like the rock actually congratulated and praised her, even those who hated on her admitted that she was gonna be missed. She made one hell of a mark, there is no denying it anymore, and tbh probably the biggest mark. But anybody will tell you she is still kind and down to earth

Alessandra signed for lingerie brand as soon as she left VS, i'm sure Adriana is also still in demand. I read an article that said some of the high fashion brands are getting ready to launch lingerie line, Miu Miu would be one of them and it would be perfect for her if she decides to change her mind.

I doubt she will. You can really tell that right now, for WHATEVER reason, Adriana doesn't want to show alot anymore... I am glad that she retired from VS this year but I feel like in general she has censored herself this year. Not even just talking about the taking off the clothes shit. I feel like the free spirit part of her is kinda gone. Like she still lacks posting on social media, and to be honest, these past couple of pics we have gotten of Adriana, she doesn't look or seem happy.  At the show I understood it, because that is sad even for the fans. But at the schutz event, in those creppy pics metin took of her, I don't get genuine happiness from her. IDK whats that all about...does she regret some life choices or is she STILL sad about her last show. But with her looking the way she did at her last event (the Schultz event) and those photos snuck of her and she is super silent on social media. I doubt she'd post anything about thanksgiving. I am not getting a good vibe. The last time Adriana looked like that was when she first got divorced. She has that exact same look + she is being so mute right now

I hope she is okay

 

But as far as her getting into another lingerie brand, I doubt it. Not only because of her post but also how she felt about VS. She was closer to those people than ale was tbh, I think she loved it more

I understand if she wants to be remembered as a Victoria's secret angel but she can at least do some lingerie/editorial photoshoot without being under contract of any brand like other HF models. I'm not giving up on her while she still looks fabulous enough to show some skin.

I agree with @Souled-Out. I don't think she will get back to lingerie soon. I feel like she has kind of lost of confidence, she doesn't post beautiful selfies anymore, post workout selfies..

She said she has a lot of projets coming up and I hope she is talking about new things other than Puma or Maybelline.
Also, I really miss her going to huge event like the Met Gala or CFDA Awards.

About this subject I don't think she is unhappy, that's not the word I'd use at least. At the show she was radiant, of course there was a huge part of beig emotional, but she was happy, you can see it in the way she was playfull with interviewers and how she reacted to all the praise and love from the other models. Sha said that this year the connection with the models was amzing, that they really felt more like a team ten before. This is a huge moment of transition of her, she had a huge VS contract that was the base where in 20 years she built her career on, and now it's gone. She has been a VS lingerie model and spokeperson for more then half her life, growing from a kid to a woman and a mother, all with that element being a costant. She realizes that there is a transition in place for her right now, we don't know how big or small, but it is a moment of chance netherless.

 

My opinion on the career transition is that it will be small at least for now, she clearly still wants to be a model, the recent campaigns and the Puma contract, certainly more then a one season only job, are an index of that. She is damn good at her job, and requested and praised worldwide, so why stop it? About the lingerie thing idk, maybe some collaborations for campaigns, since she liked to do lingerie shoots in the past and even admitted more then once to missing that. Or for magazines and editorials. But doing lingerie shows, idk, I hope she does them again in the future because she is amazing. I hope she does something new too, maybe linked to acting or tv since she said she liked her past experiences in that.

 

Anyway, as long as she does something she loves I'm happy.
