Alright folks, let's end this discussion here. Remember to be civil to each other and just keep enjoying whatever thread you're in, and if you don't have anything nice to say then perhaps just don't say anything at all.

Thread cleaned. This is not the place to be discussing politics, let alone discuss the alleged political views of others. Any further comments on that will get you a warning or banned.

It's not just you, we've been complaining about the hair for a while now lol. She looks absolutely amazing, but it's always the same look so it's a bit boring. I am hoping she'll be at the MET this year and we'll finally get a different vibe though.

She started working more once she got with Andre so I honestly would not be suprised if he's part of the reason why Adriana is working so much these days, having a good, supportive partner goes a long way. She's honestly never looked better or happier, so whatever he's doing as a partner... keep it going!

Editorials
Holy shit. I can't believe it, she's really on the cover of French Vogue? In 2025?! I am speechless, so proud of our girl! She looks absolutely stunning.

Even thought I am tired of the pony tails, she looked gorgeous at the Tiffany event

Elsa Hosk
Lais had a baby recently though, it makes sense she's MIA from the runways, and Miranda only had a brief runway career. I still hope Elsa does some shows again eventually, but she seems pretty over it. Glad she's still doing plenty of editorials and campaigns tho.

Yup. I guess "Body positivity" was just code for "I am too lazy to diet and exercise" because how come now everyone be losing weight overnight these days, suddenly nobody is talking about loving yourself no matter your size or shape anymore Which is a shame, I don't think going back to the 00s aesthetics is the answer either and it seems like that's where we're headed once again. Not thrilled with this lineup, it's pretty mediocre but it's also not their worst I guess

I wouldn't consider Camille plus size tbf, she's just healthy average as you said. So apparently only Hunter is the only one? We shall see if she also gets Ozempic-ed soon

This is crazy, Adriana owning 2025 wasn't in my bingo card but I'm so, so happy she's fully back. Thanks everyone for the updates!

Karolina Kurkova
Always a pleasure when new KK drops, she's missed on the runways though

Elsa Hosk
I can't believe all the girlies are back on the runway, except Elsa. I'm sure it's her choice to do front-row instead of walking the shows, but I wish she'd walk at least a handful.

So not a single plus sized girl so far this year? Not that I'm complaining, but the switch in marketing was quick

This diva, she's looking gorgeous nowadays

For the 100th time, please stop doing armchair diagnoses on Adriana and/or her partners. None of you have met Adriana nor this man have no idea what their relationship is. You can agree or disagree with Adriana's alleged political views or some of the work she does, but attacking her relationships and family is a no-go.

Well, no more. The Lizzo of today is half the Lizzo she was when that episode dropped

My two cents: Within the next 5 years max, SI (and most brands) will swing back into the old standards. Why? Ozempic. Body positivity is very quickly going out of fashion, every other influencer, actress, singer and model that made a career out of the "I'm big and I love myself" crap has now magically gotten thin, and we all know it ain't diet and exercise and diet, as much as they are all lying through their teeth on social media. Just look at Lizzo and Barbie Ferreira these days. South Park said best: Rich people get ozempic, poor people get body positivity. And this will cascade very fast into fashion and every other industry. I'm sure we'll continue to see diversity in terms of race, ethnicity, age, etc., but body diversity? That's gonna go away as quickly as it came.

It's not complicated, if the content is from a private account they should not be reposted. Doesn't matter if they've leaked into other places or not, if you go by that logic then I guess we should also allow nudes/porn since it's leaked in other places. Also, please remember Valentina is literally a child. There is absolutely no reason to be posting anything from her or her friend's socials, in fact, I'd go as far as saying that people trying to follow her and her friends are creep as hell. Valentina may be the daughter of a celebrity, but she herself is not a celebrity and -as of today- is not pursuing a career in the industry either; if/when Valentina (or any famous child) decides to pursue modelling/acting/singing that will be handled differently, but again, as of today, Valentina is just a regular child whose privacy has no business being posted here. And if Adriana had no problem with it, then she would be sharing the content which she isn't doing, she's obviously careful with what she's posting about her children.

Am I the only one not feeling Gigi's VS work? Like I adore Gigi and she's great at everything she does but something about her work with VS is just meh to me. I think VS is pushing too hard for her to be the "girl next door" and it's just not working for me. Everyone else looks gorgeous in the commercial tho.

Thread cleaned, everyone is entitled to their own taste and opinion, but keep discussions civil and without attacking anyone. And if you don't have anything nice to say, perhaps is best not to say anything at all.

If you look up Tyra Banks when her career started in 1991 you'll see she was by no means as voluptuous as she became later on and once she did become more voluptuous her career in high fashion was not as prominent anymore and she fully transitioned into commercial gigs like VS and Sports Illustrated, Heidi by her own admission had no real career whatsoever until VS made her a household name, plus Heidi is the perfect example of someone who is a massive commercial success but she has no high fashion credentials at all. Eva's career became prominent after being featured in a lingerie commercial and Laetitia was a GUESS Girl who then also became more prominent thanks to her work for L'Oreal and VS, two huge commercial brands. If anything, Eva and Laetitia are the exceptions that prove the rule. Again, I think it's insanity that Adriana and the other Brazilian girls were considered the peak of curves when they were all pretty darn thin, but when you compare them to what was trendy in the high fashion world at the time with the likes of Kate Moss and Jamie King then it's easy to see why. Not that I'm complaining, I'm really happy Adriana stuck with VS and took a more commercial route, I've never really been into the high fashion aesthetics and even now when they claim to be more "diverse" the majority of the girls walking down a runway do not look like the poster children of health. But all you need to do is watch the old VS shows and read the headlines for Adriana's covers through the years to see that she was most definitely put into the "exotic, voluptuous, bombshell" box.

I'm sorry to break it to you, but Adriana was by all standards a curvy model back when she started in the late 90s-00s. Gisele literally built her entire career on being "the Brazilian bombshell" with the curves, defying the standard of the "heroine chic" that had taken the fashion industry by storm with Kate Moss, and once Gisele opened the doors then the Brazilian bombshell trend started from which Adriana, Alessandra, Ana Beatriz, Isabeli and many others profited from and were able to build a high fashion career while also being commercially successful. Before that you were either a high fashion model or you were a commercial model. Is she what would be considered curvy now? Absolutely not, but back in the day she most definitely was considered curvacious/bigger than the average model, the "I'm not a typical size 0 model, I have boobs and a butt!" was a massive selling point for Adriana's career and commercial success but it also put a dent on her high fashion career. It's insane that that was the standard, but let's not rewrite history, that's exactly how it was, if you watch the old VSFS they even discuss how their models are "diverse" and "curvy"

Elsa Hosk
Just gonna go on the record here to say Elsa influenced me into buying Maria Nila products a few months ago they are very expensive but holy crap it's truly the best hair care brand I've ever tried, truly 10/10! My hair hasn't been this nice in years.
