November 5, 200915 yr I agree with Socio. There are too many angels now and a lot of them are way overrated. Some of them are too skinny and not lingerie sexy and some have been around long enough. VS needs a makeover.I THINK ALOT OF MODELS Today are TOO skinny.
November 7, 200915 yr Candice November 2009 Ocean Drive magazine BY GERALDINE DE PUY PHOTOGRAPHS BY LISA LOFTUS/utopianyc.com One of the perks of being a lingerie model, says Swanepoel, is getting to try on all the different personas. After all, underwear should be whatever you want it to be. Sometimes it can be playful or kinky; sometimes it’s simply sexy. OCEAN DRIVE: How were you discovered? CANDICE SWANEPOEL: I was approached by an agent while shopping at a flea market in Durban, South Africa, which is where I’m from. I was 15 at the time—superthin and so insecure. When I arrived in New York, my body started to change and get a bit curvier. I’ve been in New York for two and a half years now, and things are going great. What’s the best thing about being a Victoria’s Secret model? Last year I got to walk in the Miami show at the Fontainebleau. I think the runway is probably the most exciting thing we do as models. The energy is amazing, and we get so much attention! Speaking of Miami, do you have any favorite hot spots? I just got back from Miami a few days ago. I love it: the humidity, the warm weather. The only thing that bothers me is the air conditioning—it’s everywhere! I love the way of life, and being so close to the beach. I like to shop at Atrium a lot; they have some really good beach clothes. I would love to be in Miami for the opening of the new Victoria’s Secret store this November. Any excuse to get close to the beach! What are your Victoria’s Secret staples? I have to say, after a whole day of shooting in a thong, it’s nice to come home and slip into a pair of their cotton underwear. It’s the best thing ever! Which models have influenced you the most? Kate Moss is a huge influence. There will never be another model like her. The same goes for Gisele. I love the look of the sexier, curvier model. I want us to go back to that: back to when women had bodies and boobs. In New York, it’s crazy how skinny the girls are. OD
