saudade

There will be alot of very tall girls (Frida, Jourdan, Erin, Karlie, Toni, etc) and alot of "short" (Barbara. Cara, Jasmine) girls this year. With the exception of a few, I'm really liking the casting this year. There are only a handful of spots left, so I'm praying that they don't mess it up.

Flavia's walk is always on point and she is one of the few models that doesnt ever go overboard on the runway, so im definitely glad shes returning. Shes in the group of models that found the right balance of maintaining a professional/consistent walk and still connecting with the audience/camera whenever walking. KK, Michelle, and Fernanda are good examples of this.

House of Models confirmed Flavia for the show. Theyre a pretty reliable source so

Which blonde model will he try to move onto next? I wouldn't put it past him to go after someone like Toni

Maud has done pretty well in high fashion, so I wouldn't be surprise if it was Monica or Sophia that insisted on her. I really liked her in the Dior shows she has walked. She kind of looks like a cross between Toni, Karen, and Anna J, but with an unexciting body. Not a fan of the Cara addition. She's always doing the most with her walk, so I can only imagine what it will be like for VS

Out of the Prada girls that year, I liked Lyndsey and Anastasia much better. So, Im definitely surprise that she has been the only one two return. Sidenote: VS is really loving their Dutch girls this year.

This casting is a testament that the VS team can shake things up a bit when they want to.

twitter.com/toddthomasnyc So much for my theory . Todd just really likes spilling the beans.Those first two names are going to cause pandemonium

It seems like VS wanted to keep their first-time walkers as a secret, which would explain why Todd tweeted the some of the names from the fittings and why someone like Jourdan had to delete her tweet that she was walking.

Thanks, wouldn't have guessed that

Sharam posted a picture of some Giuseppe heels (the designer they've been using lately) yesterday, so I'm pretty sure that's her.

Yea, I was gonna post that I thought it was Sharam Diniz.Speaking of Emanuela, she didn't go to casting? Thats what Im wondering. She isnt in New York and doesnt seem to be in any rush to return

I think its Shiram Diniz? She's kind of like a mix of Emanuela and Ana Bela Santos

I busted out laughing at this. He and the VS team have some of the biggest egos and delussions of grandeur in the industry, and that's saying alot.

I wouldn't go that far. Sorry, sometimes its hard for sarcasm to easily come through posts

your commentary never gets old

I knew that was Lily's card on the board. No real surprise that either of them are there. I'm kind of surprise that Todd is confirming them though. Maybe they're okay with him mentioning girls that have walked in the past.

Jessica is an alright addition to me. Now I kinda want to see Natasha show up just to see how they would interact with one another.
