November 8, 201311 yr I'm not tripping that Candice will probably open the show again this year ( although I wanted Ale or Karlie to open), kinda of seen it coming they have been going full throttle to promote her like crazy these past few years and plus as much I like Adriana and love her opening the show and all, but homegirl has open the show about 1,000 times already. The only thing I do have a problem with is her possibly opening the British Invasion segment which might be the first segment. I feel like they should really allow an actual British model open that segment and just let Candice close it with the FB bra and have the Parisian segment be the opening like people hav said.
November 8, 201311 yr WTF does Birds of Paradise have anything to do with UK/France? The only living connection b/wn the 2 were during the colonization times when they went down to the Caribbean and South America to um, colonize? I think of places like Jamica, Haiti, Barbados, etc. Interesting considering Sigrid Agren is from Martinique a French colony in the Caribbean. Hm... And Lol at UK vs France segment/Candice Vs. Adriana parallel. I think the whole Adriana FB thing was hinting at this the whole time! Very stealthy VS.E Edit: Personally, Birds of Paradise has the potential to be one of their most visually stunning segements ever. I mean wings of a Macaw?!

November 8, 201311 yr So your whole Christmas campaign that will debut during the show is Paris themed but you'll open the show with a British segment ... Okay, it makes a lot of sense, I totally get it. Historical enemies France/UKIf they allow Adriana to open the Paris theme, and Candice opens with the British theme, I will die... no you don't even understand how f*cking hilarious that will be... oh the irony of it all, and what makes it even better is people won't get it. It would be the most amazing thing ever. I think we need a new Jawbreaker post THIS WILL HAPPEN!

If VS has some sense then she should because she is the face of the Night perfume and she shot the commercial for it in Paris so it would be the smart thing to do. But we all know VS isn't smart like that. I do think it would be hilarious if Candice opens the British and Adriana opens the Parisian one and the segment closes the show. We can probably run Behati out as opening that segment tho, she's walking the British one. Where did Behati say she was walking the British one? She was wearing a British guardian outfit at her fitting.
November 8, 201311 yr Yeah the walk was very slow and very relaxed...not like the va va voom..but maybe this year she'll do just that Adriana is pretty good but I think she's a little over the top though..i like her fierce walk much better from like 2003 when she opened Very true. I'm suprised people still give adriana THAT much credit, but I think in the 2012 opening she toned it down. But only because she too was self conscious because she just came from having a baby Yeah there is always room for improvement... hopefully she does. But if that hat on her head though, she not. and then adriana can thank her for the applause she got. I hope Alessandra opens something this year like last year she didn't even open a segment.... It hurts me to say it but its about time for her to leave and adriana too kind of. I mean of course they milk adriana but then give candice the benefit of it all. The torch is def being passed though. Adriana can only open up so long and they can only be helped by her for so long. I think VS wants to hold on to them but they know what they have to do... too bad what they have been doing is an epic fail They need them some better angels. Why is it so hard to find angels like the ones they had 2002-2005? They wouldn't have to push candice on us so much.

True smh
November 8, 201311 yr The fact that Erin is very unlikely to walk the show makes me think she and VS got off on the wrong foot. Am I the only one that's dying to know the story?! Clearly her contract ended abruptly. Else, wouldn't she be contractually obliged to walk the show, even if she wasn't an angel anymore right after?
November 8, 201311 yr Nop, a three year contract comes with three VSFS mandatory and Erin's three shows were 2010, 2011 & 2012 so she has no obligation to walk.
November 8, 201311 yr I think the problem with candice opening for british is because they made it an opener instead of an in between segment . They have no british angels and can't let a regular model open the entire show. VS is just so dumb. Why have a British segment anyway honestly? You don't have any british angels, barely have any british models. Why make it british themed instead of royal theme. Thats not the only area that has royalty anyways smh
November 8, 201311 yr Author It's one of three things really.- Like Chanel her 3 years was up and VS didn't renew.- They were negotiating and she wanted more money. VS said no.- Or she just decided it was time and moved on.
November 8, 201311 yr It's one of three things really.- Like Chanel her 3 years was up and VS didn't renew.- They were negotiating and she wanted more money. VS said no.- Or she just decided it was time and moved on. I definitely agree, but you can't deny that it was so ABRUPT. Erin was being promoted as heavily as Candice at one point; she was always the angel second to Candice. Usually the angels just fade out. It's just so shady how all of a sudden they just dropped everything.
November 8, 201311 yr Well Erin just posted something with Club Monaco (I think a photoshoot)..i guess she's really moving on. I think Ale sucked in 2009 opening..it was very lackluster I think its time for them to retire too but since i love Adri i kinda want her to stay at the same time...Its so weird that i can only pay attention to her belly button now when she walks..its HUGE lol I hope Candice really hits it out of the ball park with all that hate shes been getting *Can someone please explain to me the british invasion/parisian adriana/candice thing..i seriously am clueless about that*

So if they each open those respective segments it will be a parallelism.

Usually when someone's contract is up and VS are done with them a few months prior they phase them out. They did it with Chanel, Marisa, Selita and truthfully feels like they're doing it to Doutzen.

But I only want her to stay if VS still treats her like a queen lol. I know thats greedy of me but i'm a fan and Adriana deserves every good off the wall thing VS does for her because its a balanced relationship. Watch adriana isn't going to be opening but she probably gonna be the only one trending and who everyone talks about. So I don't want her to be there if they just can brush her to the side for some damn candice. no offense I think in general though alessandra is a pretty good walker, she has had great moments esp when VS slows down her walk I doubt VS is really making rivals between candice and adriana via fashion show segments lol. It would be ironic. Candice gets hate because of VS. Same way last week adriana was getting hate because of them. VS doesn't realize but when they play unfair it upsets people, not getting people to like the model lol. Like her opening only made things worse in my eyes.
November 8, 201311 yr Candice is opening in the fantasy bra? Well damn. Congrats to her; they are really trying to make her happen I guess. I'm curious as to how the next couple years will go at VS...
November 8, 201311 yr I haven't been here in years lol I have to say Alessandra's outfit sucks, I completely hate it. It is HORRIBLE!

I especially think they should start building up a third wave of younger talent. That's why I thought they would jump at Barbara, Toni, Sara, Bregje etc.
