The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2014

The annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, also known as The Sexiest Night on television has arrived again and always it was incredible!! I know this is a late post but I live in The Netherlands so the show aired later than it did in the US. This year the show took place in London and it aired last week on dutch national tv. The VSFS is a show with wings angels, models, musical performances an most importantly the Million Dollar Bra, also known as the Fantasy bra all bundled up in one show.

The models and angels have been preparing themselves for months for this spectacle by working out and sticking to a sometimes strict diet and you can definitely see that. All eyes were on Doutzen Kroes' incredible body which stood out even more this year, after all she did gave birth to babygirl, Myllena Mae almost 5 months ago. The Fantasy Bra was also an eye-catcher this year, it was the first time that two Angels were 'honored' by walking down the glittered catwalk with two fantasy bra's. Angels Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio were both clad in the Dream Angels Fantasy Bras adorned with more than 16.000 rubies, blue saphires and diamonds and was created by Pascal Mouawad, the set, besides the bra and slip, also consists of an arm, leg, stomach/ waist and neck pieces with a total worth of 2 million dollars each! Also new this year were the record of models walking, 47 models total, Elsa Hosk walked this year for her first time as official Angel. Ariana Grande, Hozier, Ed Sheeran and once again Taylor Swift performed this year.



My favorite segments were Gilded Angels, Exotic Traveler and Angel Ball, there were wings in galore it was incredible, all the work and detailing that goes into putting everything together is just unbelievable! If you've missed the show, watch it above and continue reading to see every single look!

The models for this years VSFS were;

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2013


Once again ''The Sexiest Night on Television'' has arrived! Just like last year's 'analyse' I want to ask you guys to hold back you rude comments (about the models). Ofcourse I'd love to hear your opinion but I hate it when people b**ch about that the models look ''skinny'' or need to eat.. These models are healthy, they're not ''too skinny'', they look amazing! So please no body shaming here.

Okay, back to the show. This years show, which is already the 16th, was held in New York, on the 17th of November. In the US the show aired December 4th but in The Netherlands it aired on the 24th, hence the late post. With 40 models (a record), 67 looks, 28 pairs of wings  and a 10 million dollar Fantasy Bra, this years show was supposedly the most expensive shtow ever.
Favorite segments are Birds of Paradise, Snow Angels and Parisian Nights. The wings in these segments are just killer. Especially in the Parisian Nights segment. Behati Prinsloo's wings in the British Invasion segment were also amazing! But it's not only the wings that catch my eye, besides the hot bods...


Everybody keeps talking about those (gorgeous) bodies and those wings, but has anyone ever paid attention to the beautiful heels the VS models/angels wear? Nicholas Kirkwood and Sophia Webster designed all of the shoe wear of this year's show.

After the supers like Gisele, Heidi, Karolina, Tyra, Adriana, Miranda and last years Alessandra Ambrosio, it's now the time for Candice Swanepoel to strut down the glittered runway wearing this years Fantasy Bra.

The set is adorned with over 4200 rubies, blue and yellow saphires and diamonds handset in 18-karat gold.
That's not all.. The highlight of the fantasy bra is the 52-carat pear-shaped ruby drop centerpiece!
I'm really looking forward to show, but for now, we have be satisfied with the first looks of sketches and the fantasy bra.

Rihanna for River Island!

Yes! Finally the collection has been displayed at the London Fashion just a few minutes ago!
River Island gave their fans the oppurtunity to still watch the show from our seats home on their facebookpage.
I love the collection! It's bold, it's badass, it's Rihanna!
The collection consisted of high-low dresses, colored and printed shirts, skirts and dresses with high slits, a white neat baseball jacket and more fly pieces.
I can't wait till we can shop the collection and we can! Not yet though.
The collection is availlable in stores and online on the 5th of march.
Take a look below for show and some images!
Enjoy the show!

- Samiya Cusman

The first you notice is that there is no catwalk.
There are boxy room thingy's where the models walk and pose.
It was very organised and it looked nice! It was something different.

The show finally started and the models were walking through the rooms and posing in every room.
It was organised in a very smart way, everytime a new model walks in, the models walk to another room.
After the models have been to each room, the models with matching outfits pose in the rooms near each other.

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2012


The sexiest night on television has arrived again!
Before starting this post, I want you guys to hold back your rude comments.
These models are healthy, they're not ''too skinny'', they look amazing!
Back to the show.
Once again the Angels and cast of models including the newbies Barbara Palvin, Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn walked over the glittered catwalk. With this years performances of Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber.
People were questioning about what the reason was of the fact that the Biebs will perform but understand that he performs at the Pink collection, which is made for teenage girls. And his music is based for teenagers (girls).
But let me go back to the show.
I know this is kind of a late post but I live in The Netherlands so it came a bit later but it's hosted by the amazing Doutzen Kroes so I don't mind!
I have to say that this years show wasn't the best I've seen, but then again, I've only seen like 4.
It seemed like the show only took lake half an hour because before you knew, the show was over!
I also noticed that the music was only played at the beginning because Rihanna and Bruno Mars performed twice and it didn't fitted the theme Circus.
The previous years it was the music, the models, the designs, the energy and the artists which made the Victoria's Secret Show.
This year it were the artist and the models.
I also noticed that the camera was pointed at the artist most of the time I couldn't spot the models!
Maybe it were the expectations. However, I still enjoyed the show and that's what it is about isn't?
My favorite segments were Dangerous Liaisons and Silver Screen Angels.
I loved how Lindsay Ellingson strut her stuff and wings on the catwalk because she wore such beautiful big white wings!
Furthermore mommy Angels, Alessandra Ambrosio, Lily Aldridge and Adriana Lima flaunted their sculpted post-baby body's at the annual taping of The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Especially Adriana's body was the most talked about, considering she gave birth 8 weeks before the show!
Alessandra gave birth to a baby boy, Noah Phoenix, Lily gave birth to a baby girl, Dixie Pearl and Adriana gave also birth to a baby girl, Sienna.
Watch this years show and continue reading to see all the outfits with the models.

This year Victoria's Secret welcomed a few new models to their cast.
The models for this years VSFS are: 
Lily Aldridge, Alessandra Ambrósio, Dorothea Barth Jörgensen, Cara Delevingne, Sharam Diniz, Lily Donaldson, Jourdan Dunn, Lindsay Ellingson, Barbara Fialho, Isabeli Fontana, Magdalena Frackowiak, Toni Garrn, Izabel Goulart, Frida Gustavsson, Jessica Hart, Sui He, Erin Heatherton, Bregje Heinen, Elsa Hosk, Constance Jablonski, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Miranda Kerr, Karlie Kloss, Doutzen Kroes, Ieva Laguna, Adriana LimaBarbara Palvin, Shu Pei, Behati Prinsloo, Hilary Rhoda, Cameron Russell, Shanina Shaik , Joan Smalls, Candice Swanepoel, Jasmine Tookes, Maud Welzen and Liu Wen.
Newcomers this year were: Hilary Rhoda, Jasmine Tookes, Jessica Hart, Maud Welzen, Frida Gustavsson, Barbara Palvin, Barbara Fialho, Sharam Diniz, Jourdan Dunn and Cara Delevingne.

Chanel Pre-Fall 2013 Show in Edingburgh, Scotland


Linlithgow Palace was the setting of an brilliant Pre-Fall 2013 Collection presentation, by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel.
It was also the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots.
The location was perfectly chosen for this collection.
The collection has a heavy Scottish look.
Knits, plaid tartan patterns, kilts, big skirts and coats were a few eyecatching pieces of the collection.
Karl was inspired by the country's ''Romantic and Barbarian spirit''.
One of the higlights of that night was Brad Koenig's four-year-old son, Hudson Kroenig.
He is just four years old and already took his third Chanel runway moment.
See the entire collection at Style.com.

Cara Delevingne                                                           Jourdan Dunn
The British top models Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn will put on a pair of wings for the annual Victoria's Secret Show in New York next week.

Both girls will be making their first VS runway debut walking down the glittered catwalk on November 7.
The London models will be joined by the VS Angels Miranda Kerr, Candice Swanepoel, Lily Aldridge and Doutzen Kroes who already have been fitting ahead for the show, which is due to take place in New York on November the 7th.
