I suppose this is the pre-fittings #trainlikeanangel kit?? Or is it something exclusively from The Lions? 

It's the official bag from VS. 

That's 9 bags for The Lions. So far confirmed are:

Sara Sampaio

Stella Maxwell

Barbara Fialho

Megan Williams

Grace Bol

Toni Garrn

Maia Cotton

Willow Hand

POSSIBLY,

Ming Xi

Kate Grigorieva

Wow so many girls aren’t walking the show and vs have casted unknown models is it me or the girls who have been casted look sooo bland.. 

Irina is with The Lions too, and she got invited straight to show last year. Is there a chance she'll be back or is she still on a maternity leave? 

Edit: Nevermind. I mixed up the years she walked. 

Why did the bags have to have tassels...they just do the most. It looks tacky. 

My guess is it's part of this Rebel Tease thing they've got going on.

Those bags are all kinds of hideous and tacky.

What I find so irritating about VS keep hiring the same 3-4 Chinese models as if there are not more Asian models with legit careers to choose from is the fact that John Pfeiffer is the VS casting director. Heck, he's Asian himself. How can he not be more aware of Asian models? There are Asian models like Ling Liu, Yue Han, Chen Siqi, Melissa Anderson (half Asian), Angela Ruiz (she must have some Asian in her heritage) or heck even Fei Fei Sun who fit VS better than the Asian models who actually went to the casting like Fernanda Ly or Chuyan He. If it wasn't for that terrible haircut, I think I-Hua could have made it at least to the callbacks.

and after seeing how someone as stellar as Tako didn't even make it to the callbacks, I think a lot of amazing models get robbed from the opportunity to meet the VS key people because of John. 😤

Aube is such a gem she’s filming strangers on the subway to make fun of their looks on her IG story. What class.

Cheyenne’s surprise video was really cute.

And to no one’s surprise, this is the featured bra this year. I’m guessing it’ll be the FB base as well.

Hahaha Angela Ruiz is not asiatics, she is Venezuelan and has features of Venezuelan Indians. It was two years after the casting but he had no luck

I’ve always questioned his tastes plus he has blatant faves that he will make sure get to see the key people lmao

So .. moving forward, When do you guys think is going to be the show and when they start to pour the making of?

Sanne was John's fav. and she didn't get cast this year.

its extremely disapointing, and also 1 out of the 32143241 fuck ups that is making the company go down hill

The girls can simply try out again next year with a possibility of having better outfits/music/performances. I rather the girls who were rejected to be cast in a year of amazing moments than......one that is not.

I just sense a major shake up. 

I just seen Tako Natsvlishvili's walk....and I would pass on her too. Stiff. STIFF.

Didn't they cast two girls from the Philippines? They're still Asian.

Have VS ever cast an Indian / Bangladeshi model?

I know Kelly Gale is part Indian, is she really it?
