Candice Swanepoel

Featured Replies

I'm usually just watching here - I'm a little lazy :p - but I feel the need to make some comments this time. 

I'm a little disappointed with the show - I had so many expectations since not only she was wearing the FB, but also opening the show! I mean, that's huge. Plus, I actually liked very much her Fantasy Bra - it looks a thousand times better than Ale's and Miranda's  bras in my opinion, it reminded me a bit of the ones Gisele wore back in the day. 

In my opinion, VS made so many unnecessary mistakes about the FB outfit: first off, I was not toooootally in love with the crown, but I still think it would've been nicer to see Candice wearing it to make the look feel more complete and to be more loyal to the theme, I guess (the whole Queen Victoria/British Invasion/Candice being a queen etc. thing); secondly, the gloves looked cheap... I'm on board that there should be gloves, but well made ones, like something silky or made out of any other material that would fit the 10 million bra extravaganza. Finally, the panties she was wearing didn't seem to fit her very well in all the pictures, like as if they were a little old or used, I don't know... A little too loose at the back, too small in the front sometimes. I think just a regular red lacie that they sell so much would've been a safer choice. Still, she looked astonishing  :wub:

 

About the other two outfits, they were quite cute and she pulled it off of course - this woman just keeps getting more and more gorgeous! They were not my favorite but I didn't hate them either, I just wish we could've seen her at the Paris or the Birds segments, showing us more skin (she had one of the best bodies - if not the best - in the whole show this year, there's no point in covering it that much). I was a little worried about the hair and make up after seeing the backstage pictures, but they surprised me in a good way on the runway. I still would love to see VS doing something a little different in the future (red lipsticks or cat eyes, for example), even though I know that's very unlikely - still, they've got the resources and it would make it so much more interesting at times.  

 

Ps. thank you guys for all the updates!

Girl, I understand you in sooo many ways... The gloves, the crown, I couldn't agree more! The make up backstage looked soooo heavy. But I guess it is because of the many lights on the runway. They should make backstage a little lighter. It sure would give an extra to have amazing backstage photos (not that they don't, but their faces don't always look the best). And you took the words out of my mouth about the red lips and cat eyes! I've said this sooo many times here. You can't go wrong with that, it is a timeless make up. Why keep the same old same for 15, 20 years? They make a small change here and there, but overall they always look the same. I wish VS would go a little crazier. Even with the performers. I was watching VSFS 2005 and 07 and there were so many surprises, so many craziness going on. Why are they shuting this crazy side down? If they take the risk to change make up in photoshoots, why not on the runway show? Well, I think it would be awesome to change a little bit. Cause 5 years from now, this might start getting boring...

Thank you SO much for all the photos you've shared!!!

I am so disappointed in her other two outfits, yes she rocked the hell out of them, but Candice has the body of a goddess, and it makes no sense to completely cover it up. One might have been tolerable, two was a huge mistake.

^ I hate to admit it, but on second glance, I have to say Adriana and Alessandra had more complete showings outfit wise.  Especially Adriana, I loved all three of her outfits.  IMHO.

I totally agree.

I liked the Snow Angel one the least. I would have loved to see her in something edgy. That girl wears white all the time - give her some darkness! I looked at all the photos of all the girls and I completely understand why Candice is their top girl. She just stands out from the crowd. Her body is just as thin as the others and to be honest I've seen girls walk there with more interesting faces in terms of pretty, but I think what people love is that she has that old glam look down. She has the x factor that Adriana does with a completely opposite personality. She's not shockingly beautiful, but beautiful, and so freaking cute. Makes her less threatening in a sense. I'm rambling, but I just *got* why she's their number one. And why she will be for a very long time.

^I don't know, I actually think she is shockingly beautiful, and I really do think her face is insanely pretty lol.

Thanks DivineCandice :woot: you always post the real deal :D love it !!!! Thanks :flower:

Yeah, that's exactly right! They've been using the same recipe for years and, as much as it's a huge show (in terms of repercussion and media with all the famous performers and guests), it's gonna get boring eventually - the PINK section is always the same, they could be reusing some of the outfits from years ago and I'm not sure I would notice haha. At some point they'll have to focus more on the outfits and the models (after all, it's supposed to be a fashion show, not a pop concert with pretty girls on the back) than on the whole glamour thing. In my opinion, every year they design about 10% of the outfits very well (I totally agree with TexasLongHorn2013, I loved all outfits worn by Adriana), showing the products they wanna sell and actually flattering the models. The other 90% is mostly to pass the time - most of them are ok, but sometimes ​it goes incredibly wrong (Joan Smalls tiger outfit last year was absolutely hideous in my opinion). Finally, since the show is taped, not live, I'm sure they could find a way to change the make up a little bit or at least arrange some of the girls in certain segments where a red lip would fit all the outfits, for example. 

 

Ps. I also do think that they give the wrong outfits to the wrong models (a lot of girls who should be more covered up were wearing too little, while Candice should've worn just really revealing outfits - because she has the body that pulls everything off). It's not that I hate them (I actually love some of their work) and please don't take me wrong, but I don't think it's flattering to see either Karlie (her body is perfect for HF, not for lingerie) or Doutzen (waaaaaaay too toned up, I don't like seeing a six pack on a girl) wearing only two pieces.

I was slightly disappointed too but I wouldn't call it a mistake. Her best outfit out of the 3 imo was Shipwrecked and she looked incredibly sexy without being 90% naked.

I still would love to see VS doing something a little different in the future (red lipsticks or cat eyes, for example), even though I know that's very unlikely - still, they've got the resources and it would make it so much more interesting at times.  

I totally agree with you on that one! They should be doing something different for once

Just a few points:

 

1. Although Candice reigned, she was totally mishandled as far as her other two outfits were concerned.  The shipwrecked outfit was elegantly beautiful, but elegantly beautiful is not necessarily what I to see from VS regarding Candice.  I want them to let her do what she does and stun us with her unreal beauty and sexiness.  The way to do that is revealing lingerie....period!!!!  That is what they did for Adri and she was stunning.

 

2. Disagree with you regarding both Karlie and Doutzen.  VS did Karlie a tremendous wrong.  Her outfits were among the very worst of the show.  However, that woman has an incredible body, with an ass and legs that go on forever.  

 

Doutzen's body is on par with Candice's, and she has the best ass among the Angels.  No knock on my sweet baby, but that is just fact.  I don't mind her toned because she is still very much all woman.  Its nothing like a female bodybuilder :yuckky:  

 

3. Candice is the unquestioned number 1, but some much needed competition is on the way in the form of Martha Hunt.  All signs point to her fast rise as precursor to being promoted to Angel status very, very soon.  With two Angels lost this year and Doutzen's contract coming up at the start of the new year, new blood is badly needed.

 

Martha is the best American model to come along quite some time.  Her VS debut was stunning and I can't wait to see her in action live, after Candice of course.  I think she will continue to rise quickly and challenge Candice, which is not a bad thing.  Candice has become VS in all but name and will oversaturate the brand.  People (not me) may get Candice burnout (too much of good thing).  VS needs another model who can sell.  This will make both models better and increase the brand.

 

Sorry for the analysis, but analyzing facts and making predictions is what I do.

Yeah they need another blonde/blue eyed angel... :whistle:
