I understand what you're saying, Shepherd. After all, her ex-boyfriend (who had dated other beautiful actresses and models) said she was "the most beautiful girl" he'd ever seen. (http://www.eonline.com/news/475852/the-wanted-s-max-george-gushes-over-girlfriend-nina-agdal-she-s-just-a-mate-and-she-s-absolutely-stunning)

Stealing some from posts above... Nina Agdal - she has certainly grown on me (great personality and hair), but I usually hate faces like hers Katie Holmes - I could see it more when she was younger, but now, not at all Jennifer Lawrence - she's OK but not nearly as hot as everyone says Emily Ratajkowski - she has an exotic/model-y face, but it isn't "pretty" to me Cindy Crawford - I have always found her look to be really boring and somewhat masculine. She is a great person but she just doesn't look like a model to me. Princess Diana - again, a great person, but I was always puzzled as to why people raved about her looks. Alessandra Ambrosio - she's grown on me in recent years because of her personality, but I remember thinking even as a very young girl watching the VSFS that she was manly and had a long torso. She does not look like a model at all to me. With her hair done right and tan skin, she looks "hot," but she just doesn't look like a model to me. Behati Prinsloo - I can see how she's a model, but I personally don't find her very cute. Jennifer Aniston - average Katy Perry - looks good only with lots of makeup Erin Heatherton, along with the rest of the average-looking VS blondes today Emma Stone Lily Aldridge - looks OK except when she smiles Hayden Panettiere Rachel Bilson Kendall Jenner

Haha, thanks ILUVBarbaraPalvin (btw, I also adore Barbara Palvin). As I said, I'm not trying to be a troll, but I personally haven't heard anyone really criticize her face, which surprises me.

I'm not trying to be a troll and I think Nina has a great energy about her, but do you guys really think her face is that great? I love her hair and her personality, but I've never seen a model with a face like hers before. She has low-set eyes and a wide nose or something - Rihanna has a similar look.

For a while she was aging well, but this year in the VSFS, I noticed that she was finally starting to show her age. Her eyebrows really didn't flatter her in the show.

All the photos look great! Kate Upton looks absolutely beautiful! I also love all the full eyebrows the girls are sporting This may be a silly question (I apologize - I don't follow SI that closely), but why doesn't SI get Candice or Adriana? Well, Adriana is probably too old now, but why in the past has this not happened?

Totally agree, Cult. For fun sometimes I re-watch the VS Fashion Show from '05 and '06 and think about how I just love that kind of beauty. The tan skin, dark hair, exotic features...

Would like to see Emily DiDonato, Hilary Rhoda, and/or Alyssa Miller on a cover in the future. For me, Cintia isn't a great pick because I don't think the red hair and pale skin give off that sexy swimsuit vibe. Definitely just my opinion though.

I don't find Nina, Lily, or Chrissy to be that attractive facially, but this photo really captures their best angles. They all look very pretty in the photo. I like the hair, makeup, and smiles. This photo is more attractive than Upton's the past two years, imo. I think Upton is beautiful but those photos weren't flattering.

Totally agree, dizzymisslizzy!

Was never a big fan of her judging by the photos I had seen, but I just got a good look at her for the first time in the VSFS and she looked astonishingly beautiful! One of the prettiest models this year, for sure. Definitely more of an in-person/live model rather than a print model, IMO. Looked so pretty on the runway.

Totally agree with this, Gustavsson! Also agree with your comment about the current girls not having great chemistry - it doesn't help that VS sits them together for interviews. Regarding the fact that VS is basically all Alessandra and Adriana have - this is a big complaint of mine. I liked it when VS chose models who were well known for a variety of projects (Gisele, Heidi, Tyra, Naomi) and not just VS. VS should be trying to get the top models right now, not focusing on branding its Angels. Could not agree with you more regarding the parade comment as well as the comment about the models and performers for this year. While watching Fall Out Boy, I just kept thinking about how much classier and more fitting Seal was in the '05 show. And certain segments of this show seriously started to give me a headache with all the colors and commotion.

(1) I feel the same as Raffy and Georgia with regard to having no one to talk to where I live about models. It's great to have this forum (2) I just watched that pre-show with Monica - wow, was she awkward/fake! That was painful to watch! (3) I actually really like the holiday commercial! Already downloaded the song from it - "Waiting Game" by Banks. I love the Parisian atmosphere, love that it's set at night, and think the girls all look really pretty in it.

Raffy - I agree that 2005 was the best (also liked 2006) and I miss the cool remixes, too! Parisian Nights was my favorite segment.

Was not a fan. The words tacky and obnoxious come to mind - the show was not sensual, sexy, or sophisticated, IMO. Oh, and Neon Trees was just awful and out-of-place. Regarding Magda....you guys were looking out for that? How did you know it would be there? That's so embarrassing for her!

Does anyone know how she gets her hair like that? Are there any articles out there about what kind of cut she gets or how she styles her hair? Thanks

Just looked at some photos from this show. Barely even want to watch. The only pretty models they have right now are Hilary, Doutzen, Candice, Adriana, and Alessandra (and, arguably, Izabel). I have never been particularly fond of Adriana, Alessandra, or Izabel, but compared to all the right others now, those girls are the best. I miss the days of Gisele, Naomi, Karolina, Isabeli, Ana Beatriz, Tyra, Heidi, Miranda, etc. The models in '05 and '06 were almost all gorgeous, but now the models are almost all anonymous blondes. I do have to say I applaud VS for getting Hilary Rhoda this year and Barbara Palvin last year. Other than those two, there has been a serious problem with casting in recent years. They should go back to getting some of the top models (and sexy models, at that) to do the show rather than their "Angels." Kate Upton, Bar Refaeli, Emily Ratajkowski, Emily DiDonato, and Nina Agdal should be part of the lineup instead of girls like Behati and Lily Aldridge, who are borderline unattractive. VS used to have models like Marisa Miller, Carmen Kass, and Naomi Campbell make appearances in the shows and they should go back to doing that. Oh, and I am indifferent to the casting of Cara D. and Karlie Kloss; I like that they're top models in their own respect and are cute, but I do have to say that neither really has the sexy look VS should be going for.

Very much agree. Please VS, do NOT include One Direction in this fashion show in any way. There are SO many great music options if the theme is British Invasion, and I can't stand One Direction's music (not to mention that it is too youthful for the show, IMO).

I used to love the VS Fashion Show so much but they have just gotten idiotic with their casting decisions in recent years. Barbara HAS to be in it this year - if not, I am honestly baffled. I really wish VS would stop trying to brand its "Angels" and instead pick an array of the top models of the day, like it used to do when the show was actually good.

How is this girl not more famous? She's stunning! And weirdly I know a girl who looks a lot like her (face and body)...and everyone who knows her says she is the most beautiful girl they've ever seen and that she should model. Is Lisanella short or something that she doesn't get more work?

kfitz, thanks for sharing those photos. How old is she in them?

This girl is absolutely gorgeous. Always loved her Acqua di Gioia ads and am so excited that now she's now doing SI, Maybelline, etc. I hope she gets huge!

This has probably already been discussed, but I don't have time to look back through the thread, so I'll ask it here: Why doesn't Chanel Iman work for Victoria's Secret anymore? It seemed like VS was really excited about her, since they seemed to hire her as an Angel from day one and she appeared in lots of ads in the catalogues and in the stores. After a year or two she was gone.

This girl is everywhere right now! I've been seeing her in so many ads and pictures of runway. I love her look - go Karlie!

Regarding the smile...she still looks pretty but the smile makes her look younger or something. I know she is young, but when she isn't smiling or talking (you can't see her teeth), she comes off as so much older. Although I absolutely adore her look, I do think that she seems a bit young to be a Victoria's Secret model. When she's interviewed or you see her candidly smiling, her youth becomes obvious.
