Karlie Kloss

I actually think that Karlie is a brilliant VS choice. Yeah, guys everywhere will never fantasize about Karlie the way they fantasize about Candice, but that's exactly the point.

Girls like Candice, their sex appeal is a completely male-defined notion of sex appeal. Whether we consciously realize it or not, the main reason their bodies are perceived as attractive is that they embody (literally) what (girls know that) guys think is sexy.

Karlie's sex appeal on the other hand rests in her confidence, to hell with what guys would rather her look like. She's tall, strong, intimidating to guys, and she refuses to be objectified. She wears lingerie for herself, not for her boyfriend. That's the image she projects.

VS is smart to adopt that image not just because of socially responsible or "feministy" reasons but because it sells. Girls want to look like Candice because girls want male attention. Girls want to look like Karlie because girls want to be cool and confident as ****.

This is the best comment I've read yet on Karlie's VS appeal. Thank you for posting! Karma for you!!
 
I'm kind of surprised she wasn't at the MMM Artisanal show today. She is/was one of John's favorites.

I'm sorry but, she bossed out at Versace.
Totally tore up that runway and towered over every other model during the final.
New super.
:D
 
So - the big VS Swim special features ALL of the Angels except for Karlie. And she wasn't in any of the promos for the Superbowl either.

What's going on?!
