Ok y’all, do we know if Behati and Candice are done with VS? Are there any indications out there pointing one way or the other? 

This isn’t to start a war or anything more than a curious question. 

I believe Candice was shooting something for VS recently.

 

As for Behati - I don't remember anything since VSFS.

The Taylor mix and match swim pics from her sister are in the VS email I received and they're not that bad. Really liking the all-white one. 

 

My issue with these pictures is that if I didn't know her sister took them, I would never be able to differentiate those and beach bikini shots that girls take for their IG everyday. They're not "bad" pictures persay, they just hardly seem professional quality. So it just seems like an odd angle to be pushing "my photographer sister took these!"  

And it's not a cute look for VS to be getting their professional models to do their own LQ shoots to promote their products, imo. :idk: Cough up the funds and go to Miami or Bahamas and properly display your products.

I think that's the point. I was reading a trend forecasting forum from my old fashion school and almost everyone who was on the VS tab including two who worked for VS on a corporate level (but weren't apart of the creative team for the brand) or L Brands agreed that VS is trying to capitalize on the hype surrounding IG girls, so by allowing their girls to take "relaxed" "cool girl" "sexy" shots it comes across as more relatable for the consumer who desperately eat up the likes of IG Hotties and Thoties, and it seems to be working. There has been an upswing in Mix and Match swimwear according to investor notes.


Another note that I saw brought up dozens upon dozens of times is VS might be unhappy with some of their photographers, and by asking the models to take their own shots it not only saves the brand money (versus what they are paying for professional photographers), but it also allows to see potential new avenues of ways to shoot without having to pay for test shots.

The closest pairing to Adriana/Ale. VS do this more, thanks

I’ve noticed that the candids the girls take always get more likes/engagement than the professional shots they post so it makes sense for VS to try to capitalize off that vibe. Doesn’t always equate to sales necessarily but it generates interest which I’m sure helps.
