Yeah... Amsterdam. Where she is also from. But Good on her for getting one there as a model that represents them. This is time square. There are wax places all over, the one in NYC is like one of the biggest.Adriana isn't american lol And It was def VS doing having this happen. I mean I don't even see why she would get the FB now that she got this. IF she doesn't get it, this most certainly makes up for it. 3 Fb and now a figure to remember her by as a VS angel? This beats everything they could have done for anybody. Its not even poor ale, poor any current VS angel thats not Adriana lol. I feel like all the time its thrown in people's face who she is when it comes to VS. Adriana has been blessed with alot.

This is old but super rare. and I know its real because I have seen adriana's full campaign for this brand. I am just confused as to when adriana was able to do this. I mean she was an angel by 2000.. And I don't see this being before 2000 but the photos and ads from this were indeed for intimissi. But anyway this particular picture I never saw in the set with the others but its beautiful

yeah her looks are a pretty big deal. The right person got it though, others be all big headed and still don't get have the attention/popularity and beauty rep someone like adriana does. I don't even want to imagine how some others would be if they were blessed like her

Yeah thats why I don't get people saying its crazy she has been with VS so long. For one thing she made history. But also, when you stay for a long time with VS, depending on how good you are, you lock yourself in the industry and pop culture. Relevancy is there to stay and people will not forget you. Being with VS so long I also think is what got her to this very desirable position. Not everybody can do that though

Now i'm annoyed. If it wasn't for her being in demand and her team (1/3 of the time) this is all her instagram would be. Can we get just a regular picture lol. She don't even have to have makeup on. A quote or something. She heard you loud and clear with that gorgeous editorial she just posted. I just said that lol. Maybe her team lurks here

Thanks for this. She'd also at some point failed for other publications too.Like I said, that one cover doesn't define her capacity to sell covers, in order to know for sure, we need more info. But I will be the first to admit she's not the strongest cover girl. I love her but most of her covers are hits or misses. Although, not being a strong cover girl hasn't stopped so many others from selling well. I could list a lot of prominent models and celebs that completely failed at delivering. Also, Kik is right, she does well in commercial. Kia Motors, Maybelline, Mavi and a string of other brands have come out to say she can move products extremely well. More than anything, she's a commercial model. There absolutely nothing wrong with that, Tyra, Heidi, Kathy did alright as commercial girls. I don't even know why Adriana and her team are pushing this high fashion thing so high. I mean, getting a Givenchy campaign and a Vogue cover here and there are absolutely fantastic, but they shouldn't make it there main goal. I feel like she'd do better in magazines like Elle and Bazaar they are great magazines that have a commercial edge to them. Also, I think Adriana doesn't push her covers/eds well enough on social media. That might be a reason? I agree. I think in the past year she has pushed her covers on social media. Well her instagram, twitter and fb are ran differently. On instagram now all her covers/eds, well most of them, are shared. She doesn't constantly post them, she shares it when it first comes out. But on Fb, all of her work is pushed. The covers/ed/ old VS work/ old ads. And that makes sense because she has more followers on fb. I think they pushing her HF because sometimes she does get slandered for not being out there as much as she has commercial. I think she wants her portfolio to be as diverse as possible. Like I said before, adriana can get alot of shit just for being such a strong commercial model. People get shady, like bringing up her age and number vogue covers. When you put it that way adriana sounds like a joke lol. Which is why I put emphasis on HF vs commercial. She is just stronger period in commercial and her commercial covers do well, She has broken records before commercially. And her Vogue work that is not edgy but sexy/pretty (commercial like) are the vogue work people like. Her hf covers are a hit and miss because edgy/hf adriana is not as good and appealing as commercial/sexy/pretty adriana. And I think its ok for her to still extend her work regardless because she is one of the best commercial models but it would be even more awesome if she also had a good bit of HF work. Diversity is good. Even though i'd rather see her hot beautiful shots constantly on instagram than the hf . I was annoyed she posted her marc jacob poster pictures but not her elle US, like come on lol, sometimes I think adriana does not want to be known as the hot sexy model anymore, sometimes I really do think that lol.. But she gonna have to get over it because thats what makes her so big lol

She has done well with covers depending on what it is. I think it depends on the specific kind and targeted audience. Adriana sells really well for things like GQ.Her covers broke records for them. And Commercial campaigns she sales amazingly, thats why she gets paid so much. She sales more in what she is best at, she is way better for commercial. Part of that is because of her popularity, the other is because of her look and all that. You can't say the same for hf. I think the lack in Vogue numbers and HF in general is done by choice. She def passed that mark where she can pick and choose her career path. And a model that has been around as long as her is not gonna just all of a sudden in her 30's score as many covers as she did in one year and so many important ones. I feel like she is constantly picked on for not being as strong in one modelling as she is another when clearly alot of models have that relationship and its rare a model is equally as successful. And honestly its rare that a model is even as successful for just one kind of modelling. Miranda kerr may get reprints but she has an overall generic career compared to adriana and doesn't have as many bragging rights when it comes to impact of her modelling. Even those you named with all those vogue covers lack in commercial compared to her. I think regardless she is in a good place and is not only so popular but very well paid for a reason. She has one of the highest networths in the industry and has never even touched anything outside of modelling. She's just better for commercial than hf and I don't think that is a big of a deal as people make it. Way too much of a big deal is made about that, I mean they are major assholes, you'd think adriana was a horrible human being. Thats why I just focus on where Adriana is because you can't knock that, she doesn't have a generic career. And there are plenty of models who are more successful in one area than another

I know her GQ cover in 2006 was the best selling of that year.. Her 2008 gq also made some kind of record, I forget what it was specifically. But both ended up being two o the most successful for gq and this is GG US we are talking From social media it seems like alot of people want/buy most of her covers. But I will say I didn't see her VP everywhere like I do most of her stuff, when it comes out.

love his quote about her

Candids
I don't think so. True she isn't as skinny as like kendall. But body wise I think Adriana is still bigger than gigi even. (but that may also be due to the fact that despite not being very skinny she still doesn't have much of a shape). Gigi just has a chubby face. Like Adriana did,I remember those who hate on her love to make fun of that. just gigi has them to an extreme degree lol. Her body isn't as big as her face. So she isn't fat.

she didn't even try to look flattering there lol. but I can't be made at her not willing to conform to society's expectations of her

yeah man, I didn't agree with it when they were first seen together when people were saying it but I saw it tonight. Adriana makes her look like a pretty but average person lol.

She has really gotten her body into the best shape she could have. Her body never looked as good in pencil skirts. And she kept her ass lol I don't like the makeup the artists used for any of the their models though. Alot of the ladies there have way more potential than the makeup allowed to show. All of their makeup could have been better

Ohh, never mind. Well makes it even more sense why she went along with it.

Candids
Its gonna look more flat because she doesn't have more extentions which makes sense because its already pretty long.I don't care. I don't think it make a difference and i'd rather her not want to cut it than when she does because the last time she cut her hair it was a soccer mom hair cut. And she looked more like a mom I'm glad she got a show and it was one she opened (though it was also with toni) she hasn't opened many hf shows so thats probably why she went along with it. And its brazilian and i'm tired of the people there complaining about her lack of work for their country lol. I liked the first dresses on them. The second batch weren't cute imo

Her and toni did great opening together. Thats what her and ale were supposed to look like last year lol

I;m g;ad adriana didn't go. That show was a mess. models falling everywhere. Joan looked good but I saw her walking and she had to obviously pay attention to her steps.

I still can't see adriana having the fb. Def see candice more for that. As far as opening... VS had better been pushing some buttons. But its kinda rude, what if a new angel saw that and thought they could possibly happen
