Late for the party as usual but I finally decided to watch the show (well, skim through is more accurate but I didnt watch the last 3 shows at all), and oh dear. What was with that editing ? Girl 1 showed up on the runway, skip to girl 2, skip to the performer, skip to girl 3 posing at the end of the runway, skip to girl 4 backstage, skip to the performer, skip to girls 1 and 2 posing at the end of the runway... I'm sure it was very controlled and rehearsed but the editing made the whole thing look like a giant mess.

I hated the music, but I have hated the music for a while now, I wonder if it's just me getting old and out of touch.

The in between segments were really boring. I mean we get it, the VSFS is the best, greatest, awesomest, grandest, most super duper fabulous fashion show in the universe, and the girls are super ultra lucky to be awarded the rare divine priviledge to be there, no need to repeat it every single year, it's getting tiresome.

Last thing that I didn't like : showing Ming Xi's fall. I had seen pictures but I expected it to be edited out. Keeping that moment felt like a reality TV thing, when someone has a meltdown, the camera is there to show it to you with a big zoom on the tears. I thought that was tasteless. I suppose it's like Fernanda's wardrobe malfunction back in 2003 but I didn't mind as much, first because she kept her composure on stage and second, the show as a whole was much better.
 
For the positive however, the stage was really nicely done. I think it looked right, between runway and concert venue, since this is what VSFS is now. The outfits were in general really nice and the girls looked beautiful. I suppose my biggest complaint is that, obviously I don't know what it was like when you were in the audience, but as a TV program, the VSFS is supposed to be an entertainment, and I was not entertained.

My take aways from this year: 
Positive:
1) Make up looked a  LOT better on most of the girls. 

2) NO Bechweaver or whatever it was called.

3) NO extensions for the girls.  I loved that they played up to the girl's hair length and left it, only adding bits in for volume. 

4) outfits/costumes were a tad bit better this go around, but....I still think Sophia needs a break. 

5) I actually liked the stage-runway.  It's not something I would cry over, but it was nice. 


Negative: 
1) editing. Too many cuts and shots from the shoe level. 

2) editing.  Not enough time on most of the models.

3) editing. 

4) Ale's leaving got me more worked up than I thought. And I'm not a huge fan of hers. 

5)Visa issues.  

6) Sophia needs a break. 

7) Stop throwing shit onto a back piece and calling it a wing.

The show was awful but man did Elsa kill it. She outshined everyone. Not to mention she is drop dead beautiful. I did like Candice's opener but she almost seemed pissed like over it. She usually smiles a lot more. I liked Adriana but as always she does those dumb i love you gestures. Josephine's walk was terrible this year. Taylor Hill is gorgeous and her legs wow. She did not get enough screen time. Seriously Elsa though....she should've opened the show again in the swarovski outfit. I like that she can be fierce or playful in a nonstupid try hard way unlike the other models. She is a natural.

Hey guys! I'm awfully late to the party (lol) but I just wanna ask you if you know why Cindy crawford was there? (probably old news, sorry) https://www.startv.com.tr/program/tulin-sahin-ile-moda/bolumler/197-bolum (31:50)

It's not Cindy. I'm guessing it's one of their agents from IMG. Probably Lisa DiRuocco?

So, I just watched the show and these are my 2 cents:

 

The Good:
-> Loved the hair, makeup (!!), the diversity of the cast and the even the stage was ok (against all my odds);

-> Balmain was drop dead gorgeous within its style and I hitted replay as soon as ended. Kiwi fitted nicely and the jackets and boots were to die for. Some of the lingerie was very beautiful. I was expecting a segment or a reference to Oliver, I wonder why they didn't make a big deal of being their first colab?

-> Yay for Grace walking mainline!

-> Godesses is probably one of my favorite segments of all the time. Simple, classic, light colors with gold :heart:. The designs were a little repetitive but Romee, Taylor and Blanca were pure perfection. (I would kill to see Sara's in this)

-> Best angels: Adri, Lais, Taylor, Romee and Elsa. It's almost overwelming how beautiful Adriana Lima is, it's unreal.

-> Best newbies: Aiden (I'm loving her Bambi eyes look, I don't care whom she's related to) and Frida (God bless her, even her forehead) 

-> Best comebacks: Karlie (rocking that Malfoy look), Leomi, Bella (!!) and Blanca, 

-> I liked the segment about the nationality of the girls (but I'm bias, since they mentioned my hometown)

 

The Bad:

-> HATED Martha's pose in Winter's Tale. That was the definition of awkward. So so so so so mad at it. Can we replace her with Karlie? VS wouldn't know the diference and Taytay would be happy anyways.

-> The hell was that kung fu segment? Seriously? It felt way too out of place.

-> Jo is your new main girl. She breaths VS, eats VS, drinks VS. We get it. Can we fast forward to the part where she gets pregnant and leaves? I'm so over her!

-> Ale deserved a bigger shout out but I ain't that mad to see her leave tbh. It's a little overdo and Lily could go as well

-> I don't get the deal with Alexa. Shoot me.

-> The drama about Sui falling was unconfortable, and knowing that they probably got a good walk from her from the other tapping just makes it worse. I'm sad for her and it broke the mood of the show.

-> The edit :/ Always the same, year after year. I felt on the verge of an epileptic attack

 

 

The Ugly:

-> Winter Tale was better than some other Exotic segments, but was still lame. Wish they kept it simple. Sara's outfit without that hell neckless was so pretty, why ruin it?

-> Vanessa Moody (sorry not sorry). Can't believe she closed Godesses, so out of place.

She might want to focus on her new baby?

 

True but I could imagine her still doing the holiday commercial and walking the show. I think that is what we should expect from her moving forward: doing holiday stuff, walking the show and be present for major  launchs and campaigns. As I said in the other thread she will probably leave within the next 2 years.
