I usually don't see any reason for a VS girl to be HF materials (and vice-versa) but I do like all the girls you listed for VS
I would add some SI girls to complete the bulk, adding a Cinthia Dicker for instance would be perfect, need some redhead
Would love an Asian angel as well... when I see the Chinese ladies on some runways, some Japanese girls at Tokyo Girls Collection or even girls in Korean bands, I don't understand why it seems so hard to get more Asian girls for VS because so many stunning girls over here too...

I doubt we'll see more Asian models, it's taken them so long to even have 2 in a show, so whatever reason they just don't cast as many.

with that said, Liu Wen needs some real wings this year

but to be serious yes, it's good they good Liu Wen in but she got some atrocious outfits...

#508 Agree and second that. In fact I am excited to see the "new vs" sans good old times angel magic. Time changes and they have to change with it too I guess. Curious how it all will turn out.

#510 Once again have to agree here on the girls to ditch and the girls to get.

I've always wondered why VS hasn't jumped on to Kendra Spears.
She's an American, has a decent HF career, sexy yet classical beauty(a la Toni, Edita) with a Cindy Crawford mole. Perfect if you ask me

^ You and me both, her legs are KILLER!

[happycanadian]

yeah, Kendra is completely gorgeous!

and she's got a great body, too! and VS needs more brunettes.

Kendra is perfect for VS, she's gorgeous, has an amazing body and a great walk! She's such an all american beauty, a real throwback to the supermodel days!

Sorry for the double post but couldn't edit!

Before I get to my main point, I wanted to say I agree with those who think Shanina is not right for VS. Personally I thought she was awful in the show and ruined what was the best segment for me. She spent her entire time on the runway blowing kisses to Tyson (I assume?) instead of looking straight ahead and being a pro like every other model in the show. Surely one kiss would've sufficed.

But the reason I posted again is; after seeing the pictures of Toni at the event, I'm not sure she's a good fit as she looks so similar to Lindsay and Erin in those pics and many people find it hard to distinguish betwen those two as it is!

Wow Toni looks really great in those pictures. A lot better and less stiff than in the other pictures for VS and the behind the scenes Video I've seen.

Erin and Lindsay both look fantastic too.

I think they look all completely different other than all being tall, blondes but I guess some people really have problems telling them apart.

Elyse Taylor possibly to become an 'angel'? strange considering they didn't even book her for VSFS last year. I think VS are in shambles, seriously choose 7-9 girls and stick with them. The role of a VS Angel becomes less prestigious every year. And I really think that they don't need another blonde

Elyse Taylor shoots a Victoria's Secret fragrance campaign with Michael Bay Another day, another Australian model scores a lucrative international fragrance campaign. Last week it was the Sunshine Coast's Codie Young - the solo face of Marc Jacobs' new Dot campaign. And now comes news that Sydney's Elyse Taylor appears in the new Love is Heavenly fragrance campaign for US lingerie and swimwear giant Victoria's Secret, shot by action director Michael Bay (see videos, below). Taylor - a recent frontwoman of Australian swim and surf brands Tigerlily and O'Neill - is described by Victoria's Secret as a 'new face' and she co-stars in the commercial alongside two Victoria's Secret 'Angels', Erin Heatherton and Lindsay Ellingson. This is not, in fact, Taylor's first VS gig. Taylor walked in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2009. She currently appears on the Victoria's Secret website modelling new season swimwear - alongside some of the other extremely high profile Victoria's Secret Angels such as Adriana Lima and Candice Swanepoel. Love or hate the beauty-pageant-on-crack factor of the annual boobs-and-baubles fest that is the Victoria Secret Fashion Show (and some really hate it), there is no denying the economic clout of a VS contract. Models with Victoria's Secret affiliations tend to dominate Forbes' annual highest-earning models list. Stand by to see if Taylor graduates to the rank of a fully-fledged Victoria's Secret Angel, as has compatriot Miranda Kerr - who, coincidentally, was once a close friend of Taylor's. And a Victoria's Secret commercial shoot with Michael Bay has been known to lead to bigger things still. Bay has been shooting commercials for the company for several years now and replaced Megan Fox with Victoria's Secret Angel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Transformers 3 after working with the latter on a VS job.

Elyse is gorgeous, but just too plain for me - her latest catalogue alongside Candice was like she's the perfect foil as the cute, "normal" looking girl. If they want more blondes, then love to see Toni and Bregje - Toni gives VS certain elegance, and Bregje is just smokin' hot with those heavily lidded eyes.

Brunettes, I thought I'd love Shanina, and whilst I'm a big fan of her work, agree that her VS catalogue photos aren't as amazing as I'd expected, especially when I see them on the website alongside other models. Her eyes look strange and asymmetrical, which makes her look tired and old. I do remember that the day of her big VS shoot, she had the flu really badly, so that could have made the eyes puffy. (Do models really use haemorrhoid cream to counter that?!) As far as VSFS walk goes, I noticed some other walkers got very little runway time - they'd show their legs walking, cut backstage, then show them posing at the end of the runway. I guess the producers didn't mind showing her excitement with all the beaming (she has got a killer smile) and blowing kisses down the runway. If she gets the gig again this year though, I hope she tones it down.

well they listed Elyse as the new "face" of the CM compared to Toni the new "Angel"
interesting as well that the girl doing the promo with Lindsey and Erin is Toni and not Elyse (who is in the CM)
I guess people won't see any difference anyway, blonde overload

I would love to see Shanina get some big VS work as well, but looking through this thread I think we might be in the minority saying that Someone said a few pages back that she ruined her segment, I wouldn't say that, yes the kisses for too much but she didn't ruin her only walk

I would also love to see cameron russell
