Angel<br />

The much hyped fashion show<br />

is finally over. The American<br />

lingerie brand Victoria’s secret is<br />

famous for showcasing its latest<br />

collections annually in an<br />

extravagant fashion show every<br />

year. The highly anticipated show<br />

finally unfolded on November 30 th<br />

at the Grand Palais in Paris, which<br />

was a first time ever that Victoria’s<br />

secret Angels walked the runway in<br />

the fashion capital. The venue<br />

covered in Pink Carpet and pink<br />

lights with glittering signage was<br />

transformed into everything VS.<br />

The show that lasted for 45<br />

minutes featured 5 themes-<br />

Mountain Romance, Dark Angel,<br />

The Road Ahead, Secret Angel and<br />

Bright Night Angel along with their<br />

Pink collection themed Pink<br />

Nation. The models walked the<br />

show in skimpy lingerie, trussed up<br />

in feathers, hundreds of thousands<br />

of Swarovski crystals and sequins<br />

paired with towering thigh-high<br />

boots and stilettos by the footwear<br />

designer Brian Atwoods. Mountain<br />

Romance featured Floral motifs<br />

and had a very Indi-pop/ boho vibe<br />

to the collection. Model Lily<br />

Donaldson walked in an outfit set<br />

with 2500 stones on it. The much<br />

talked about Fantasy Bra worth $3<br />

million was worn by Jasmine<br />

Tookes. The extravagant Bra,<br />

designed by jewelry designer Eddie<br />

Borgo, and handcrafted with jewels<br />

by AWMouzannar took 700 hours<br />

to complete. Encrusted with 9000<br />

precious gemstones and 27000<br />

Swarovski crystals set in 450 karats<br />

of 18K gold, the piece of lingerie<br />

lived up to its reputation of being<br />

decadent and extravagant.<br />

The show was made even more<br />

exciting by the powerful<br />

performances by Lady Gaga, Bruno<br />

Mars and The Weeknd. The models<br />

shook their feathers and total of 43<br />

pairs of wings – Victoria’s Secret’s<br />

signature prop for the cameras.<br />
