It's actually on three times tonight on the Canadian TV channels on Expressvu. Same type of thing as last year, not too sexy. Got quite a few Brazilians. Allessandra and Adriana are the hottest IMO. Who is that new blonde? :smoke1:
They need some ideas and music for this show. But still worth watching. While the hail comes down. |

I'm pretty impressed with the designs actually. The girls were inhuman as usual which I find actually takes away from the outfit, but oh well. Are victoria secrets designs always so vintage and Las Vegas Inspired??? I figured it would be full of more modern , trendy stuff but I actually loved a huge majority of the garments they showed. I Loved the dancers too, that one girl girating on the stool before the second part of the show was delicious. *yum yum* I'm still confused as to how so many people can find such sickly women so hot, yes they have gorgeous faces but.. ick. Tyra had the best body there by far and she still could stand a little junk in the trunk. |

how is you calling these women's bodies "sickly" different from a thin girl calling you "fat"? --Joanne :P |

yeah, i too thought that the models were WAY too thin. i'm sure that some of them are naturally that thin and healthy, but i'm also very sure that some of them have eating disorders. the standard of beauty is becoming thinner and thinner, and i don't find it attractive at all either, ESPECIALLY not for a lingerie show. there ARE some efforts to try to put healthier images out in the media, but c'mon...anything above a size 10 being a 'plus sized model'? i think that's sending out the exact same message as having size 0 be the average size of runway models, and creating sizes like minus 1 and minus 2. in terms of jenna's comment not being nice, i do think that her statement has merit to it as there wasn't variety in terms of sizes of models. so by having all waify and stick-thin models, a very bold message is being sent out.

being 'healthy' can mean a variety of sizes, as even a seemingly obese person can be healthier than a sedentary thin person. I do agree that there should be more variety in fashion shows, but it was just my personal opinion that it's rather mean for anyone to call another healthy human body "sickly" just because it doesn't meet their own personal standards of what a healthy looking person should look like. and by this I mean, I don't see it as any different from a person looking at a plus-sized model and saying "she looks gross!" because of her body weight. (I should add, I never meant for you to take it that I was dissing YOUR weight). it's easy to jump to conclusions that these models have eating disorders, but I have friends who are perfectly healthy but get ragged on for looking like an anorexic. and I do apologize, by "sickly", I was under the assumption that you meant "nauseating to look at". --Joanne :P Last edited by Joanne; Nov 21, 03 at 05:54 AM. |

It is very possible that some of those girls are naturally that weight, but I highly doubt they all are. And you know the message that sends, you have a brain in your head I don't have to explain THAT to YOU. What erica said is the opinion that feuled my remark, you obviously took it wrong or maybe I shouldn't have worded it that way. And it didn't even corss my mind that you might have been insulting my weight, so don't worry about that. All I know is that when I am a designer my models sure as hell aren't going to look like that. I won't dicriminate against models who are tall AND thin, but I just don't find it attractive or more important, socially responsible to put girls like that in my clothing.

^^ UHMmmmm...there are a lot of toothless, leatherfaced Brazilians too!! I have yet to discover a nation of beautiful people
random fact : Models 2 decades ago were only 6% smaller then the average woman...now? 21% - the average size of North Americans has gone up ..but the models sizes have dropped dramatically |
