Adriana Lima

her face in that photo

It's perfect. However, the picture itself looks like some sort of soap opera promo.

Well, maybe she couldn't do it, didn't want to, or just wasn't casted, but I wouldn't say she isn't liked by Miuccia because of it. Maybe if there were other VS girls there besides Ale, Doutzen, and Miranda and if Adriana had walked in other shows that Fashion Week then maybe, just maybe, I would think something was up. I also doubt she would agree to model a Prada dress in an editorial if that was the case. Miranda didn't walk for LV so does that mean Marc doesn't like her? Because now that was weird that she was pretty much the only one who wasn't there.

I thought Miuccia didn't like her because she didn't cast her in the show. Doutzen, AA, Miranda & Rosie were cast but Rosie was cancelled last minute. Maybe Adriana wasn't available? I don't know but it's weird that you have all of the VS Angels walking for Prada but Adriana (not including Heidi but she doesn't do anything).
Miranda was an exclusive for Balenciaga during PFW. She wasn't able to walk any other shows. Either way, it was Katie Grand who cast AA, Adriana, Rosie, Bar etc. Not Marc. Miranda hasn't got the in-your-face sexy look that Adriana and Alessandra don't have so Grand isn't really interested in her.

One of my fave SLTs shoots:

^ OT but actually, Rosie wasn't cancelled so much as that she had to call in sick - she had a very unfortunate eye infection, and Bianca Balti walked in her place. (just bc saying Rosie got cancelled sounds like Prada decided they didn't want her...it wasn't exactly like that )

 

[vivaglam]

But Miranda walked for Prada so how was she an exclusive for Balenciaga? Or maybe I'm just not understanding the definition of exclusive in the modeling world because I know there are several. Anyway, I wonder if that little boy is Russell's son. He seems to be having the time of his life in those shots.

She was sick? I was told she was cancelled back stage.

Miranda was an exclusive in Paris for Balenciaga. And an exclusive in Milan for Prada. If that makes sense to you, Savanna.

Yeah, it does. I forgot Prada was in Milan. Anyway, I am crossing my fingers that Adriana is in Paris for HC FW because from Twitter I see a lot of girls (who I wouldn't expect to be there ie. Anne V.) heading over there if they aren't already and sense that something is up again a la Paris FW. It could be nothing though.

Maybe she'll turn up at Givenchy? They aren't doing a runway show, though.

 

[Littleathquakes]

Marissa wasn't in the Prada show either. Not that I expect anyone to take her seriously.

For some reason, it seems like a lot of the major designers don't take a liking to Adriana. Do they think she's too pretty? Even the Louis Vuitton show wasn't supposed to happen - Marc wanted Isabeli Fontana, who wasn't available. Then Adriana was cast as a replacement.

 

[vivaglam]

When was that said? Because Marc said he wanted Elle and Laetitia and Katie said she wanted Adriana and Alessandra. Nothing about Isabeli.

 

[tanii94]

Marc said he wanted Isabeli but she was unable for the show.

 

[HighMaintenance]

Marc did said he wanted Isabeli and Daria, Daria was booked for a shoot and Isabeli was doing MDFT in Brasil. The article is in various threads if I have more time I will post it...

 

[nothingless]

I've read that he said he wanted Isabeli too, but I haven't read anywhere that said Adriana was only booked as a replacement for Isabeli.

 

[HighMaintenance]

I don't believe Adriana was a replacement since Isabeli and Daria weren't casted in the first place. Marc wanted them but that's all..

 

[vivaglam]

Yeah, I don't think Adriana was a replacement either because Katie wanted her. I was about to say. I just don't see Adriana as being someone you bring in to replace someone else and then admit to replacing them because you're more than likely casting her for her name in the first place and willing to pay however much they're asking for since she's special booking.

 

[Sam12]

disappointed that she did not do Givenchy HC, I guess her association with that brand must have been just a one time thing.

 

[vivaglam]

I don't think it was a one time thing because she went to the show in Paris (wearing head-to-toe Givenchy) even though she didn't walk and she never does that. Also, when she did the campaign she was also invited on behalf of Givenchy to go to the MET Ball (but didn't go for whatever reason). Riccardo seems to really like her from what he's said about her so I'm thinking we'll see her again.

 

[HakunaMatata]

lovely girl!

 

[HakunaMatata]

did adriana really date lenny kravitz or was it just rumors? i never saw a single pic of them....just wondering if anyone could confirm it.

 

[vivaglam]

There's pictures of them together and her at one of his shows.

 

[HakunaMatata]

so does this mean..yes? could you tell me where i can see those pictures?
