This is completely true, they are very friendly coworkers but that's it, you won't catch them casually hanging out. Not sure about Ale, but as far as I know Adriana is close just to Lais from the current Angels (hence Lais constantly mentioning Adriana), and from the former girls she's friends with Doutzen and Karolina, and some other models but form the Angels that's it. -
Doutzen & Lara Vittoria

Marilhéa Camille Ophelie

Valentina > Kate, Ashley and all their gang tbh. She's actually gorgeous, with a great body and is a great model, if she wasn't open about being trans, the odds are no one would know or notice.

I'm loving the haircut so much, it makes her facial features stand out more in those VS pictures
-
My first choice for opening is Elsa cuz #mybae but is not her (i do think she got the SO because why else so many fittings wtf?) so I'm hoping for Jasmine or Sara. Honestly just anyone but Taylor or Josephine because they don't have the right energy for it. The rest I'd be alright with I guess

Now I'm going to cry and be upset if this doesn't happen but it's probably not going to happen, Jasmine didn't lead the finale last year, it was Elsa and Adriana. I'm guessing this year it will be Lais and Adriana, which is almost as good because i love their mentor-apprentice relationship

I'm 100% sure they are adding a bra, there is no way VS is risking nipplegate in the show, I mean I rather not have them adding one but they will for safety reasons. The press events they can fix it a thousand times if they want, with the show they have two takes and Lais actually has to walk with the bra, not just stand for pictures, they have literally just two chances of making it work, I just don't see them risking it, especially with the show being in China Also the color, no way a white girl was meant to wear this and the only other dark skinned model is Jasmine who wasn't getting it for sure.

I think it's going to be a NA again, VS didn't give a fuckity fuck about Candice's comeback so far, I don't see them starting to care now, her not getting the FB this year IMO is a clear sign that VS is 100% pushing the NA. Alessandra and Adriana haven't opened since 2012 so they are way pass opening time at this point IMO, kinda like Heidi. And I'm more than fine with that, as much as I love Adriana and I think she's the best opener, I've come to terms with the fact that she ain't getting big things anymore. It's time to let the other girls shine, is not like they haven't earned it

I'm thinkin they want to avoid jetlag and also make sure all the paperwork is in order so if something goes wrong they have enough time to fix it and get in the country in time for the 20th. Also, some girls may just want to do some touristic stuff because China is not a super common place they visit for work.

LMAO I am dead at this dumbass theories Behati is seven months pregnant, meaning she got pregnant in April which is way before the FB is usually molded to the model. Also Behati's way way smaller in the chest than Lais. The only reason why the 2012 look it's because it was a basic black bra and panties set they sell in stores and they can change it easily

Your First Look at Victoria’s Secret’s Sapphire-Studded Fantasy Bra When Lais Ribeiro puts on the Fantasy Bra she can’t help but get a little emotional. “You just feel so powerful wearing it—like all the hard work has paid off,” shared the Brazilian beauty on set at Pier 59 Studios. Clad in layers of Mouawad jewels, Ribeiro looks every inch the Victoria’s Secret Angel, but her journey from unknown to modeling superstar has been unique. Working with the mega-brand since 2010, she’s gone from being a rookie to becoming a regular presence in the company’s sultry imagery. Strutting down the glittery pink runway, starring in those Michael Bay–helmed Super Bowl ads, and posing alongside the supermodels she once looked up to, she’s now earned the honor of wearing what may be the world’s most valuable piece of lingerie. Getting picked for the Fantasy Bra, Victoria’s Secret’s annual custom merger of lingerie and jewelry that serves as a focal point within its televised shows, came as a surprise. She found out during fittings for the upcoming Shanghai show on November 20 and Ribeiro admits that the news overwhelmed her. “I had no idea that [the fitting] was for the bra,” she said. “I came in and when I tried it I cried, it was unbelievable.” Though VS’s Angel brigade is filled with model moms, Ribeiro began her career after the birth of her son, Alexandre. Growing up in a small town, she didn’t dream of Angel wings or making it on the catwalk. Instead, she wanted a career in which she could help people. “I was going to school to be a nurse and then everything happened very fast.” On the advice of friends, she entered a local modeling contest and found herself whisked off to New York City before she had learned a word of English. She credits fellow Angel Adriana Lima for taking her under her wing. “Adriana knows herself. She’s very strong, powerful, and sexy. It’s inspiring—she helped me a lot in the beginning of my career,” says Ribeiro, who upon experiencing her first Victoria’s Secret shoot knew she wanted to be a part of things for the long haul. “I remember Russell James was shooting me for that first catalog and Miranda Kerr was there. She had been in this business a long time and everything was completely new for me. I didn’t speak the language. She was just jumping up and down, throwing her hair and flipping. All I could think was, ‘How am I going to be like that?’ ” Thankfully, Ribeiro is a quick study. Learning from the best in the business, she is now the standard that newcomers look to. Following in the footsteps of fellow Brazilians like Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Gisele Bündchen, her career has come full circle. “I believe everything happens at the right time,” says Riberio. This year’s Fantasy Bra is done up in gold leaf and sapphires and comes with its own bejeweled belt. Although Ribeiro may need a bodyguard to make her way to the stage, she says she loves the design. “Personally, I love the colors on my skin tone and the big stones!” Though odds are she won’t be engaging in any heavy lifting à la her Vogue video, Ribeiro is expecting plenty of excitement in Shanghai. She’s looking forward not just to bringing the VS spectacle to a new city, but also having her family front and center to cheer her on. “I have my brother and my dad there so it’s going to be very special for me and I can’t wait to see their faces when I’m walking down the runway and just see their reaction!”

WHY DID VS TAKE SO LONG TO GIVE US LAIS INTERVIEWS? The more see/read, the more I love her and I was already a giant fan of hers I'm gonna go ahead and say this is the most deserving, well given Fantasy Bra ever. After seven years of getting basically nothing, she's finally getting her time in the spotlight and now has chance to reach the full potential I always knew she had. Also she keeps mentioning Adriana in the interviews so I'm like twice as happy because it makes me happy when other models acknownledge Adriana's greatness so yasss

I was thinking the same, but then again, we also don't know whenw as that fitting. We know some girls like Sui had early fittings so it's possible they called Lais to do the fittings earlier and then they told her. But still, I love the video and her reaction is priceless. And now that I think about it, she's probably not wearing the wings because the color doesn't match the color of the bra at all. I hope she keeps the crown tho, and if she's getting wings they better be gold/champagne toned. Also if you check the FB picture in HQ, the bra doesn't have anything under it, so she's probably going to be wearing a bra under the FB for the show
-
Pretty much, nailed it
-
All jokes aside, I hope she doesn't wear it with wings or at least not those wings, because this bra is perfect as it is, it doesn't need anything to distract us from how ugly it is (see 2012 and 2015) so I hope she either doesn't get wings or she gets something tiny and delicate like 2005 and 2006 and not a cape for god's sake

She'll pick up the pace but still, she's done VS for 10 years already, there's nothing else for her to get out of the brand, she's done it all, I'm pretty sure she's only staying for the big paycheck, not because she's actually thrilled to be doing the same work after a decade. She'll stay in VS for a couple more years but only showing up for the big events, she earned the right to that. And I also don't think she's losing any sleep over not opening the show or not getting a bra, is not like she hasn't done it before. I actually like Candice and enjoy her VS work, heck I'm excited to see her for the show, but much like Dri and Ale, she doesn't need the brand anymore, she'll leave when she wants and VS knows it, and that's why their main focus is building up the girls who neeed the brand and will stick with them for a longer time.
