Holy crap she's just impossibly beautiful there. Her SKIN is literally luminous.

I think it's the best presentation of the fantasy bra since ... I don't even know. Way back - like, maybe Miranda in 2008? or Karolina in 2006? Or it might be better than either of those. It's one of the best EVER that's for sure.

 

[theBlueRider]

THAT is what a VS model should look like. So soft, luminous, exotic and womanly!

there's no way Taylor Swift would be in the same show with Katy Perry. a star of her calibre wouldn't fly trans-pacific to watch/perform with their enemy.

Lais looks so stunning holy cow!

That's what I'm thinking, but I guess time will tell. Katy's China form was separated from Taylor and Harry's, so we'll never know which one is for the VSFS - or maybe none of them - until they announce the performers. BTW, it's currently 11 days until the show taping already, so I doubt they'll announce the performers until we see some pics on gettyimages and find it out ourselves. They're so hush hush about everything this year, but it makes us only want to watch the show more.

If it can be of any use to any of you...
I made this list back in August when we knew about who made the cut for this year's VSFS. I just thought it would be nice to know from where each girl comes from and their age. The number of Instagram followers may have changed, since the list was made a few months ago now. It might be interesting to see how it evolves as the show approaches. I'm sorry if the list hurts the eyes!

Feel free to add/remove anything!

[Armani]

Thank you so much ^. Sui He and Estelle Chen are at Shanghai! And tomorrow we get to know a lot more about Balmain X VS.

 

[anonid]

It's strange to think that in next year's show, some of the new models would have been born in the 21st century.

 

[Armani]

A couple pics from Lais... Pharrell is rehearsing for Singles Day, a Chinese festival, but he was also rumored to be a show performer... and the prop in the first photo will probably be used in the show, as the Mercedes Benz Arena can be seen in the background (it doesnt stay in that pose the whole time, it does walk as long as people are holding it up and controlling the legs )

Why do we not have a thread already for the 2017 show? or do we need to finalize the segments and then we can have a thread? i forget the exact requirements.

 

[CommanderTMugler]

I think we can open it now, It's in 2 weeks right? Plus we have the segments, cast and location. It's been opened a good month ahead in the past.

Armani seems to keep everything up to date, I think she should do it.

 

[Armani]

I’ll do it in a few hours, because I’m on mobile right now. I do think its time to create the thread as well, it doesnt seem like theyll announce anything else until the actual show.

 

[Armani]

I won't post anything (i.e. performers, segments) in the VSFS thread until confirmed, so all rumors are still going here.

Sui and Lais are supposedly doing a mini show in China, and it is RUMORED that Pharrell will be in it. If Pharrell will indeed be in the show, I'm almost positive he also will perform. (Is his audience big in China? I know VS and a lot of the angels are ADORED there, as well as of course the Chinese models, especially Liu and Sui.)

 

[Armani]

Lais confirmed Pharrell is only doing the Singles Day festival.

 

[Juliax]

Thanks everyone for updates.

Guess Im the only one who doesn't care for Lais or is not crying for joy of happiness seeing her with FB or the FB or the presentation. Wish Elsa or Jo would have gotten the FB, oh well next time. Overall there was too much gold at presentation which just looked kind of cheap. But the Fantasy Bra itself is really pretty, agree on that, well done VS. Hopefully Lais will (just) close a segment with it.

VS models for me shouldnt necessarily be exotic.

 

[lavender]

Why are Estelle and Sui already in Shanghai? Is VS not doing the private jet thing? Or was that too expensive for them?

 

[Valentine27]

^They are not doing it this year. It would have probably generated a lot of costs. Every model goes separately!

New Balmain X VS preview.

 

[Fotoholic24]

The prop in the first photo will probably be used in the show, as the Mercedes Benz Arena can be seen in the background (it doesnt stay in that pose the whole time, it does walk as long as people are holding it up and controlling the legs )

Maybe that explains this shooting:

 

[Armani]

I'm positive it's not for the show... but I definitely wish it was. Jourdan Dunn posted on her IG story that she's flying to Shanghai.
