Also Karlie's anouncement was very bad received I remember, she was very thin back then and it came right after Miranda was dropped so people were mad. yeah I loooooved Karlie in high fashion (not anymore though) but HATED her in VS. She was ok in teh VSFS, but not for catalogue and certainly not for an Angel. and awe Lily really is out...that's sad, she was one of my favorites. no Lily and now we have to deal with Alexina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toodarnhot Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I know Alexina’s announcement post is still relatively “fresh” on IG, but she’s getting outliked by some bland product image of perfume. Barbara’s announcement vs Alexina’s vs random perfume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bump Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 @toodarnhot oh my. what a difference in numbers. Barbara is really the model who have been chosen, I am so happy VS recognized that. I wonder what VS thinks about the comments about Alexina. this reminds me of Chanel (who I thought was cute for PINK) all over again.

Syria Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Wow just the fact that they don't care at all what people think says everything about VS. I mean what good signing someone who's not liked can do to your brand? They're either out of touch with reality or sabotaging the brand on purpose.

I think she was adorable for VS...but I don't want cute and adorable. She is a fantastic model, one of the best working today but I want her to just do teh VSFS (she did wonderful in the Punk section last year) and that's it. Her Swim pictures for VS were cute and happy and I did like those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessicanicole Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I liked Karlie as an angel but I think she was smart in leaving when she did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Shaftoe Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 People hated Karlie?!? My fate in humanity took yet another hit. Can you imagine the shitshow if she were to return? There would be lots of whining about her husband and Donal Trump plus tons of posts from idiots convinced she is secretly dating Taylor Swift, it would be glorious.

As for the Taylor Swift thing, Karlie still benefits from it. Taylor's fans adopted her and love her, that can't be a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bump Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 nope still don't like her for VS. she is too burnt and oily looking. that's VS' fault but I still don't like the videos or pictures. that's just me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaku84 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 At this point let’s just go for 62 angels or something? I think some pictures of Alexina are good and I like that she’s a redhead... so good for her. Would she be my first choice for a new angel? No. Would she be my 987th? Maybe. Can’t blame her for seizing the opportunity though. I hope they cut angel numbers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clauds Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Yall are forgetting something, VS tracks sales through their website. They have been working consistently with Alexina, if they gave her a contract now it's probably because she's been doing what VS needs: sell bras and panties. Instagram comments are basically a bunch of 15 yo who won't buy VS because they can't afford it and yall give IG too much importance, Lais is the least followed Angel yet she's always in their website, why? Because she probably sells like crazy Get real, do any of us the actual adult, people with actual money to buy at the store actually spend time commenting shit on instagram?

toodarnhot Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 👀 In all honesty, as much as I want Lo and Grace in the line up, I really don’t want them signed unless girls are leaving, and they need to get some new WOC in the line up. It’s honestly ridiculous that they have 13 some models and only 2 models of colour within that line up, especially given the fact that they have plenty of WOC that they’ve been working with.

I don't want Lorena to become an Angel right now, she needs to shake that insta model label VS fans have given her first. I think she needs to work a couple more years before VS fans would welcome her as an angel Grace should definitely be an Angel though, I really think they may have offered her a contract and she rejected it. VS definitely needs a more diverse Angel lineup though, Alexina being a red head isn't enough.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessicanicole Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I know I personally don’t buy bras at VS because a certain model is wearing it. I would guess that’s true for a lot of other people too, especially considering the average person doesn’t pay much attention to the angels anyway. That’s not to say tracking isn’t important, but Instagram is important too despite how toxic it can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, i don't really pay attention to the model's face when I buy things online, plus here in Sweden, they have various models using the same reference so it is like 4 models using the same bra with different angles.

everyboulevard Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Agreed. I'm not paying attention to whatever model is previewing a product I want to check out. Although I have questioned VS putting Alexina in stuff that definitely clashes with her hair color and quickly leaving a product that I might have been interested in because the contrast is too much. As much as I gripe about not finding her angel material, I will concede that it'll be nice having Jo, Lais, Barbara, and Alexina showcasing how things look on a fuller chest.

Clauds Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 They have different models with all products, VS can track whose picture did you click on Josephine or Elsa? Lais or Stella? and so on, this why some models get dropped fast and hard because they are not moving products. I personally tend to buy whatever Lais wears because we have a very similar skin color or whatever model with a similar body type to mine they have because then I know how will suit me. And honestly Alexina is close to 500K on instagram anyway, which is pretty decent either way. 19 minutes ago, toodarnhot said: 👀 In all honesty, as much as I want Lo and Grace in the line up, I really don’t want them signed unless girls are leaving, and they need to get some new WOC in the line up.

Being realistic, I think Lameka and Kelsey are the only WOC i think could join line up soon, I'd say Ming but i think the ship has sailed. No one else has been working for the brand enough, i think those two Lorena and Grace are the ones I can see getting contracted ... I feel like VS may actually be pushing for 20 angels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
