Have you tried refreshing the page/skipping to the middle of the video? Sometimes lately videos on youtube appear to not have any sound for me - doing any of the above usually works for me to get the sound going. I don't know why it happens though...

Love it! Even the sprays of gemstones look ok like this! Good job on the edit.

*dies laughing* You're right of course. Still, I like all the hoping and guessing before the show - it makes it more fun. And then after the show you get to talk about who got what outfit and how many and what does that mean etc... Good times this time of year.

Then not every angel will get three outfits each. I don't know what to hope for - that all the newest angels will get two outfits so it is equal for everyone or that the ones with many VSFS's already on their resume get upgraded to three while the ones with only one or two get two outfits. Which is more fair for the girls?

I love how positive and upbeat she is in her interviews! She seems like such a lovely person.On a different subject I hope the last spot (if it is the last spot) goes to Imaan or Blanca. *keeping my fingers crossed*

I don't think they would take the FB away from someone as a form of reprimand. The girl would feel terrible. If they really did end up switching models that is.

I'm speculating btw - I have zero inside info. And I really hope it wasn't the case. I was hoping Lily would get it - this has been her year. She's really been knocking it out of the park.

If the speculation earlier in the thread is correct, i.e. that the reason the bra doesn't fit well on Lily is because it originally was intended (and molded) for someone else this could be the reason. They needed to choose another angel that could wear the bra. The interesting part would be why the change of angels? I can't imagine they would pry the FB from someone as a punishment for some reason - that would be horrible. Maybe the bra no longer fits the intended angel and they are unable to lose the weight by the time of the show? Which would mean... So... Which angel looks to have a beginning baby bump? (Kidding/Not kidding) I wish I knew how to make emojis on my phone...

I've been looking at the FB outfit and it's growing on me. Except for the sprays of gemstones - not even the ones on her hips look good to me. I like the colour, the shape of the cups and even the straps - it all looks so petite and feminine. I've liked the hip jewelry/chains for past outfits, but this one just looks off to me - a chain of tiny sunbursts (with thin beams) in different colours would have been prettier I think. There are fireworks in the shape of sunbursts. I really like Prettyphiles edit of the bra. Also for Lily - or any flatchested girl - a triangle bikini pattern would work better. Heidi had a fantasybra made of metallinks one year. For Lily they could have lined it with some padding too if they absolutely insist on padding. I do miss the early 2000's shows when they had flatchested/small chested models strut their stuff without a bunch of cutlets in their bras. I hope they don't announce any more models - even though that means some of my fave veterans won't make it this year. I hope all angels get at least three outfits - although chances are slim... so that already means 45 out of 70 outfits are spoken for... I can live with one outfit per nonangel.

Yay! Lily! I'm so ridiculously happy for her I can't even express it! Maybe if I use more exclamationpoints!!! Yay!!! Lily!!! You are all right about the FB though... The bluegrey background in itself is pretty, but the gemstones don't really complement it as one would hope. I think gemstones in just one colour - a subdued one, maybe light blue, white or black - would have suited it better. It could have fit in PoaA then instead of FW. I don't know how I feel about the "swirls" extending past the edges of the cups yet. I do however wish they would let a flat girl be a flat girl - nothing wrong with that/it's all good after all - instead of trying to create cleavage where there is none. That is why Lily's petite upper body looks strange in the FB - it's a bra made after a pattern for cups meant to hold bigger breasts only made in miniature to fit Lily...
