I know, all of my fav Angels  How many events is Adri doing? I know she has Wendy Williams, AOL Build with Sara, and now the store event. I'm just glad that VS finally knows how to distribute press events amongst the Angels now. At least I hope they keep it up this way. 

 

Thank you @AngelAshley94 for the video! Cindy and Sara's wings look beautiful in motion I can't wait to see it in HD on tv. 

@AngelAshley94 Thank you! What did you friend tell you about the show if you don’t mind sharing?

 

Wow, that one girl got huge wigs! A showstopper for sure. Adriana and Elsa’s don’t look that good from far away. Sara’s are great too. Oh, what a cute pose she did!

 

I have to say that the show looks a bit bare and the space quite empty. The runway is non-descript and there is nothing in the back besides those led walls.

As much as I want Hailey far away from VSFS, I rather have her then Kendull there.

@Sanni and @GildedAngel No problem loves  and he said that overall the show was OK. The attendance this year was much smaller compared to the London 2014 show (he also got invited to that one as well) and he said the London one literally had thousands of people in the audience that it resembled a concert compared to this year where it was only a couple hundred or so. He also said people in the audience only seemed to care about the performers and of course Adri (not a bad thing of course). People were also laughing at Kendull's stiff walk in both TRA and DA too from where he was sitting and he heard many people call out "Kylie!" while Kendull was walking in the Dark Angel segment  People were also laughing at the Bill the dragon in Elsa's opening and thought it was pretty tacky but he said as soon as she started walking it started looking better and people started cheering because she rocked Bill! He said a lot of the French people in the audience were confused why there was a "Chinese/Asian" theme segment in a fashion show in Paris and were expecting mainly French-based themes lol and in the second taping, they really highlighted Jasmine's FB, they had Bruno and his entourage walk opposite of her side by side while she was in the middle strutting (I hope we see that in the airing!) but overall, he told me that everyone in the audience was only there for Adriana and how she practically saved the show with her opening in SA. Secret Angel and Bright Night Angel were the most popular segments according to him with the audience dancing along and standing up singing along as well. 

Thank you, @AngelAshley94! Damn, the French audience can be hard to please. Can’t image much worse than being laughed at while wearing lingerie and walking down the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. From the footage, it’s evident that there weren't enough people considering how big the space is. The way they built those stands with wide staircases highlight it.

What I don't understand is why they didn't use the stands on the runway...they only had drummers and musicians on it during TRA segment and that was it i think? What was the point of that to begin with? They shoudlve just built the stage on the opposite side of the palais where the grand staircases were...

Random thoughts about TRA:  Why they only work in clothes and outfit pieces that are NOT lingerie? I mean, all the extras, details, jewellery, fancy fabrics or luxurious prints are somewhere in the outfit, but never in the lingerie. Looking again the photos, is all about plain lingerie with some details as strips or lace in some pieces, not about detailed lingerie. Ok, i know they have this "shop the show thing" but, not even Marias (awesome) outfit had the jewels or de details IN the lingerie, is always added things to complete the styling.

 

I miss the days where the lingerie was the center of the outfit, personalized, worked on etc. Not just the "base" of the outfit (the majority of panties and bra's are similar to Fireworks one's) where they brought up some nice pieces to style it.

 

 

Most of VS lingerie is very plain these days because it is a lower price. Most of "eyecatching" things you will see in their designs are rhinetones/glitter/metallic, variety of colors and strapiness. You won't see any innovative designs or unique fine laces like European brands because they would have to sell it at a higher price and Americans aren't used to that. The materials they use are also synthetic like polyester unlike other brands that use higher quality materials like silk, leather etc. These costumey outfits are their way of trying to make it look more special.

Yes, I would have put sexy dancers back there or some stage fixtures like they had all the Christmas stuff at the 2005 show. Don’t know if that big metal structure is supposed to represent the Eiffel tower but it only contributes to the cold, industrial feel of the place.

I love the sound of this, I hope they choose to air that version of it. When you throw the FB in the middle of a segment (  ) the least they could do was something like that to highlight it. Jasmine's walk also looked FB worthy, I'm excited to see her in BNA.

not sure if this has been posted anywhere, but if you live in australia, the show airs this thursday december 8, 8:30pm on channel nine!

TBH I saw that youtube video and the wings don't impress me that much with that white lighting. Like Sara amazing wings look white? They looked amazing in dark colors 

 

Did two girls got the same flow wings?

Also where this wings not used ? I feel those should have been the wings for opening.. 

New here and just caught up with the thread! Here's some thoughts: 

• Regarding Kendall, this thread has made me realize that people don't seem to know what she actually looks like. She's always had relatively bad skin. It actually looked much better in the backstage photos without makeup than what her skin used to resemble before she started modeling. As for her lips, I don't see much of a difference in them, they look pretty much the same as always. She looked very uncomfortable with her wings in TRA, she walked oddly slow. I expected a little more from her because she's usually relatively decent on the runway. Never a standout, but not horrible either.
• Is no one going to mentioned how awkward and tragic Taylor Hill's walk in DA was? Her end of the runway poses photographed beautifully, but in action, she looks like she stumbled and like she did not know what to do with those big wings. And from the interview videos posted here, she seems to have no charisma. She comes across very awkward and she's not very well-spoken for a spokesperson. Jasmine was pretty much carrying that entire interview
• Speaking of Jasmine, all I can say is wow. What a beautiful woman. Wish she would've opened the segment but she really didn't even need to because you could hardly tear your eyes away from her either way
• Don't kill me, but I don't see the appeal of Grace Elizabeth. She's pretty, but very forgettable in my eyes. I find her features quite nondescript, I can easily confuse her with several other models 
• In the minority here again, but I actually think the little bit we've seen of Bella's walk was not bad at all. I found Gigi's lip syncing to Gaga in the background of one of those videos quite cringeworthy. But I may be biased because I simply don't like Gigi. Though I do agree she was much more beautiful when she had the extra weight on her
• How is it that Lais supposedly tripped and fell "flat on her face" yet there's not a single video or picture of this? I haven't even seen any mention of this in the media and considering how much media was present, I have a feeling this either didn't really happen or was grossly exaggerated and truly just a stumble. Either way, She's such a bombshell, she deserves better from VS. Her outfit for TRA was flat out ugly, but so was the entire segment so no surprises there. Don't even get me started on that g-d awful dragon (if they want to up their ratings, having a white model open the show in a Chinese/Asian-inspired dragon costume was not a smart move. Especially when they hired 4 Chinese models for the show. There are gonna be so many people that see that and change the channel right away. There are so many way to take from cultures in an appropriate, non-offensive manner and they just can't seem to get it right. For all the work that goes into a show like this, it's quite lazy)
• Alessandra deserves more appreciation. She looked absolutely stunning and she's one of the only models that brings energy to the runway. I truly hope it's not her or Adriana's last year any time soon because the two of them pretty much carry the show in my eyes. Majority of VS's current lineup of both Angels and non-Angels look like they are between the ages of 14-19 years old. I don't care to see them in lingerie. It's creepy and unappealing, even if they aren't actually those ages. Many of them look like they're still in the early stages of puberty 
• Maria Borges is such a stunner. I'd love to see her become an Angel one day, especially because she doesn't look like any of the other Angels and right now, most of them blend together to me. It's just a mix of tan, light hair, and light eyes. They desperately need more visual diversity 
• Irina is beautiful and undeniably sexy, but I don't think she fits VS. She fits what they should be and want to be, but not what they actually are and I think that's why I couldn't get on board with her being in the show. It would've made sense a long time ago, but not anymore 
• The outfits overall this year were much worse than last year IMO. As someone else said before, it seems like the actual lingerie was an afterthought and they channeled all their energy into costume designing. I wish they focused more on the things they were actually selling to customers. The backstage bras everyone wore were more beautiful and exciting than almost any of the lingerie that was on the runway
• In general, not really excited to watch this year. Seemed like a waste of money to go to Paris where they didn't take advantage of pretty much anything Paris has to offer. The audience was tragically small. At least 50% of the lineup was forgettable and/or questionable.
