victoria's secret fashion show

Since my last article on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, we’ve seen quite a few updates. On October 24th, VS officially announced this year’s show would be held in Paris. On October 26th, they unveiled the 2016 Fantasy Bra, worn by Jasmine Tookes and encrusted with over 9,000 precious gems. On October 28th, they released the show’s full model lineup. Yet the big question, at least for me, is if VS will be able to overcome their abysmal ratings from 2015. At its peak, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show could claim over 12 million viewers.

Though they haven’t yet taken over the States in the same way they did in Australia, the label now has a few stores in California, and offers free shipping and free returns […]

A couple of weeks ago, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show aired in the United States. As usual, it was taped about a month before, and then there were several weeks of hyping and promos and press releases about every single detail of the event — from how many Swarovski crystals they use to what the models’ pre-show workout regimen is. As a fashion show, the VSFS doesn’t really interest me; […]
