With this ideology we will continue to get recycled looks, untrained model walks, zero presence, bad/cheap designs, and theme-less shows with segments that don't connect together....oh and don't forget the marketing content this year....that will continue until they actually listen to constructive criticism from customers who purchase/purchased there items and hire a new creative director who know what they are doing....and go back to there old manufacturers.

 

*catches breath*

 

Did I miss anything?

Yes the fact that they don't care about what we have to say and the fact that even if they read this they wont take any of it to heart. Ed literally said he got rid of his instagram because of comments like you all are making. It just pisses them off and makes them even less inclined to take any criticism. Holy fuck, you all literally rip everything they do apart before it's even out, what makes you think they'll take that negativity to heart after the fact when they're judged before the final product is seen.

 

They do not give two shits what a bunch of random people on a forum have to say, especially when 90% of what is said is negative regardless of what they do. What you guys are doing isn't constructive criticism, it's just straight negative and it's depressing. Literally it makes people not even want to come on here because it's all just bitching.

Candice. 😍

Sofie R. looks good. I was worried about how she would translate on HQ. I want to see her walk. Her and Barbara can represent for the non-size zero girls and people can stop complaint about there being no body diversity. Although....maybe they should add 2 more so it is not in the "token" range.

I've been in class so I haven't gotten to look through everything and won't for a little while longer but holy shit. 

 

This is. Bad. 

 

feeling extra bad for the girls who ONLY had a look in the MK segment. Leomie deserved better.

As I said time and time again earlier in this thread........VS is not spending money on these girls ESP the new angels anymore because they are not bringing in the sales. The blame should be placed on the design/marketing/manufacturing teams but it is easier to blame the angels....because they believe they should be able to sell the products anyway even if they are unattractive and products are destroyed after a few washes.

 

I know you all have your VS faves and what not but this entire show....was bad....very bad....the construction of the pieces...to the sets..the design concepts.....performers....etc. overall....terrible. If you think this is nice you are just being grateful to either see your favorite models walking and limited knowledge in design/construction and a very acquired taste of fashion that is questionable. 

 

There were no proper transitions between segments that actually make sense. No story to be told that actually makes sense. There was no overall theme. The clothing (not staring at the models face or body because most people do not look like these girls which are the customers) are cheaply made and none of you would buy those items if it was simply photographed without your fav model wearing it. SO SAVE IT! They should do a focus group with clothing alone and see how people respond to it....but they will never do that because they are just as delusional as the fans.

 

Elsa deserves a second FB under new management because I can never accept that especially since it is not worth 1 million. No where near that price which was completely inflated and I knew that from the jump. It looks like they used a 3-D printer to make the bralette (you can 3-D print metal). It is the cheapest bra VS ever done with lab grown diamonds. NO GMO for me...it ain't real. Period. Next time Elsa needs to just leave her face alone or go to Candice filler/botox person and not too much lip fillers. I love my very full lips so I understand the desire but it makes her look cartoonish.

 

Anyway, enjoy being delusional if you want. Ratings will tank and I will not be surprised if sales are down again this holiday season....meaning there might not be a show. We are in the red zone for cancelling the whole thing. Furthermore, don't @ me with it being a "free commercial" commentary because if your multi-million dollar commercial still fails to bring in sales then it is not worth it because you are not breaking-even. At the end of the day it is a business. Hopefully, they cut 5-6 angels and Sophia/Ed/Monica steps down. CEO use your brain and make that change!

go off sis!!!

You could never let the woman get her moment without having to be bitching about it, could you? Maybe it's not worth that, or maybe that video was made from someone who actually don't know what it's talking about, but you pick the thing that it's going to make Elsa look worst. You always do that. 

That fucking thing looked like a million dollars on the runway and if that's the price they are putting on it, I'm fine because she sold the fuck out of that. So let her breathe, cheap or not it's her special moment and she is happy about it. For God's sake.

So happy that Grace opened the Pink segment

G'night Pretty! Thank you for all the pictures and all the time you spend -your personal time- (and money) for us to have them. 

[VSBODY]

Omg candiceeeeeeee! where can we see more photos of her on the pink carpet? I need a striking one to make my new icon 

Also we didn't get any photos of candice and elsa together?? I expected at least some, lol

[tatehill]

Seems pretty f-ed that Sara is really the only one who didn't get anything. Like yeah I'm a huge Sara fan but even if you aren't, she's worked hard for this brand. Not that the other girls haven't but they all got something, Romee got two things. I think that's what is annoying me more than anything (even the shitty outfits)

[Clauds]

I'm seeing rumors on IG that Sara was originally going to close the show but VS changed it to Adriana last minut because they found out she was leaving. I would like to clarify that this is bullshit, I don't even work for VS and I've known for weeks that Adriana was leaving and I was actually late, VS people have known this for months. So no, Sara wasn't meant to close the show, there was no last minute switch. VS had this planned all along.

 

I frankly don't know how people come up with this shit sometimes.

@Prettyphile Thank you thank you thank you for all the photos every year.  You are a rockstar for putting up with all our BZ nonsense and doing this for everyone. (And everyone else who helps pull pictures.)

I love this a little too much!
