I just realized I've kept most of my thoughts on the VSFS thread, but I must proclaim it here that this is the BEST Ale has looked in years (since 2005 in my opinion) and it's inspiring and amazing to me how hard she has worked. This is coming from the girl who used to eat chocolate and love partying and NEVER work out, I think it's a true testament to what a professional she is and how she's matured as a model and a woman. Her hard work paid off and she looked so absolutely gorgeous. She had such a refined maturity and beauty that reminded me of the days of Stephanie Seymour for VS. Whether Ale chooses to leave VS or not, I will be happy and I think she's definitely left her mark and proven that she can leave whenever she would like to hang up her wings.
Regarding the show itself:
-Fantasy Bra opening with Adriana was PERFECT, these girls needed to open the entire show together, it was just beautiful to watch. Music was too slow and an awkward choice for the segment.
-Angel Ball, stunning. Simple and sexy and gorgeous.
-I wish she would have kept her third outfit, but that's just me being greedy.
-Bigger wings!! C'mon VS!

-She was in St. Barth's with her kids before the Vogue Brazil shoot with makeup artist Fulvia Farolfi, hair stylist Teddy Charles, and Jilian Davison (fashion editor from Glamour US). The bookings director from Glamour was also tagged so all signs would lead me to believe that it's ANOTHER shoot for Glamour, but it seems odd that it would be a month apart from her previous shoot and in the exact same location?
-Interviewed backstage at VSFS by Olivier Rousteing. Supposedly for a secret project, but it's probably just an interview.
-East London studio shoot
Ale ended this year on such a great note and the next is already starting off strong with her 10th Vogue cover. I'm praying she shoots for Vogue Turkey while there next month, and it's been awhile since we've seen a collaboration with Katie Grand (hopefully she gets off of her Kendall obsession and revisits Ale).
By the way, look who made it back onto the cover of a VS catalog. QUEEN!
