"I thought it was quite vain to say, I want to be a model.", - Kate Moss Options

[misoshiru]

Tasha Tilberg IS gorgeous. And isn't Heather Marks also from Canada?

[angelrevelation]

I love Jeisa!

Also, Morgane Dubled. her new haircut is really nice

[*disco infiltrator*]

ELYSE SEWELL FTW

[misoshiru]

I like Morgane's look, but I hate her walk. Especially on the VS show. She looked like a bobble-head doll with a small head instead of a big one.

[angelrevelation]

^ I didn't think hers was too bad. It was worldsss better than Angela Lindvall's walk. Her legs went over each other like two feet with each step, and she just kept on waving her trains to the side

[misoshiru]

yeah. I don't think that Morgane should have been picked for VS. She looks too young for it.

[angelrevelation]

I didn't think she looked too young... She looks about 20? Jeisa Chiminazzo probably looked the youngest. Even though Miranda Kerr has a baby face, you can still tell she's not as young.

[misoshiru]

Yeah, Jeisa shouldn't have been picked for VS. She looks so much better on fashion runways. Even Stam. I found it kind of weird to see Stam on VS.

[angelrevelation]

I dunno, I thought Jessica Stam worked for the Pink collection... the other ones were ok.

I thought that it was weird that Hana soupkova (sp?) and Julia Stegner were there. Their looks (at least faces) are a bit high fashiony for VS. especially Natasha Poly. I wonder why they chose her for catalogue

[misoshiru]

No, Stam doesn't do the Pink collection.

Yeah, they need to stop bringing in high fashion faces for VS. I cannot stand Natasha Poly now. She looks like a walking skeleton.

[angelrevelation]

No, Stam doesn't do the Pink collection.

Well, she doesn't officially like in the catalogues, but she modeled Pink in the fashion show. is that what you mean?

[HakunaMatata]

Embarrassing question of the day! : What's VS?

[angelrevelation]

^ Victoria's Secret

[HakunaMatata]

OKAY DUH. Kaycee feels dumbbbb, now. Thank you for clarifying, though. :]

Just wondering, but what's wrong with VS bringing high fashion models in for just small stuff? Like for perfumes? I mean, it'd certainly make them money and raise the model's popularity. [/ignorance about fashion world]

[angelrevelation]

it's possible that they could make more money, but it's not guaranteed. Because the models are high fashion. they're "meant" for high fashion, because of their looks. High fashion models are usually very unique looking and more waif like. most of the VS models are more commercial looking, so they'd appeal to the VS consumers, or the larger public, more.

Like, look at Adriana Lima versus Hana Soukupova

I think some of them should be able to adapt though.

[misoshiru]

^ AND they usually have bigger boobs

[issey miyake]

wow children are SO cute












when i was their age, i was still playing with barbies and running barefoot in dirt. but then again i wasn't a very good looking child

[HakunaMatata]

^I wonder if the modeling world is cut-throat like in their older version. Now that would scare me. But they are adorable! I like the third-to-last picture.

[angelrevelation]

^^ that kid has grills

I would have loved to do that when I was little... Now it wouldn't work, because i'm not 5'10". ehh.

I looooove Morgane Dubled. Yeah, she does look strange in the VS show (my brother thinks she's super hot, haha). However, she looks AMAZING in the Armani Prive couture show, wearing the mint-green [wedding] dress with the flowery embellishments across the chest and neckline (that Beyonce recently sported at the Oscars, and, for the record, Morgane looks way better than Beyonce does).



I don't mind VS using high fashion models for their annual fashion show that airs on TV. More power to them. The models still look great, and it's refreshing to see a taller, slender girl compared to the rest of the girls with humongous badonkadonks.

I would, however, mind if VS models were used for high fashion shows. In fact, I'd be downright pissed off. But that never happens anyway.


Anyway.

Am I the only person that notices that Julia Stegner has this weird thing with her mouth? Sometimes in the shows, it looks off-centered. Asymmetrical, like she got punched in the face or something. Okay, I'm exaggerating, but not by a lot.

I'm not such a fan of Hana Soukupova (she is weirdly skinny and not all that great-looking).

And yes, Heather Marks is Canadian as well, as is Jessica Stam and Coco Rocha (Vancouverite, woot!).

That was a great picture of Morgane. Actually, Ajuma from VS does high fashion too. And not to mention that Gisele has walked a few shows this season. No, Julia Stegner does have a weird look occasionally. And I don't really like Snejana a whole lot on runways.

[Gigi]

Snejana is alright, I prefer her in print more than on runways.

Ah, right, Gisele does walk the high fashion runways, although she did start out as a high fashion model, so maybe she doesn't count? I don't know. She irks me a bit.

I think what I meant by "VS model" were those that exclusively model for VS. Models like Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks (former model, but model nonetheless) Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Ana Beatriz Barros. I mean, apart from stuff like VS, Maybelline, the Petrelli calendar and Sports Illustrated, they don't really get any other work.

[misoshiru]

Actually, I think Adriana Lima walked a few high fashion runways a long time ago. Okay, I just checked, and apparently she walked for Valentino, Christian Lacroix and others in the 90s. But obviously not anymore. And Tyra did high fashion before jumping to VS.

[Gigi]

^ Yeah, they all started out high fashion (pretty much all of them anyway). I mean, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Cindy Crawford...the Greats. They were the muses of the entire fashion industry. Then, they sort of trickled down into legendary status, and started retiring from the runway.

So did Gisele Bundchen and Adriana Lima (something in my brain tells me that Adriana has done some sort of print ad for LV, but I can't pinpoint it. And it had to have been during the early 90s). But you know, not anymore.

Not now, since the whole Brazilian wave has come and gone. Now it's more of an European aesthetic, the waif girl with an alien-like face...there's no place for Brazilian hotties like those of VS. Maybe in the future, but not now.
