Posting this "Runway Q&A" video both in her thread and in this one... because I know a lot of people here, myself included, LOVE Yasmin:

 

[CommanderTMugler]

I'd be keen to see if the VSFS exists in 5 or 10 years. It seems to have completely run out of steam.
If they want to get the viewers and also the reputation back then they really have to go back to the simplicity of VSFS 2005 and 2006 which are still by far the best shows. No over the top performances or awkward strutting/posing/blowing awkward over the top kisses on the runway.
They need help from fashion show insiders and pros like Alex De Betak back for it since his VSFS2005 is so goddam unbelievable.

They need to get rid of that god awful Sophia lady, dear lord they give her too much control. Hire some other stylists.

Also better wings, not some wires with pom poms at the end for every model, make decent sized wings and give them only to the angels.

 

[Riseup]

There goes Yasmin high fashion career.

VS officially announced the show will be in NYC:

^Hopefully that means they can spend more money on creating refined and detailed outfits instead of that cheap mess they have shown last year.. I still have nightmares thinking of that China show.

 

[mathiaskatz]

^and the poor girls that couldn't walk due to visa issues, and getting rejected this year? that's so rude.

 

[zacatecas570]

So happy for Willow, Ducky and Yasmine, but no Maria, and instead they put the attention wh*re Winnie Harlow, she's very vulgar and tacky.

 

[Armani]

Mayowa’s Q&A:

 

[Littleathquakes]

well at least Lily A won't be doing her penguin stomp this year.

 

[KateTheGreatest]

Is it too early to start predicting who is going to wear FB this year?
Have a feeling it might be Elsa ...

 

[Elite13]

Yes, I think it might be Elsa too. Or Behati if she returns. If anyone "deserves" it I think it's Behati.

 

[Fotoholic24]

Im want Behati to get the FB before she go, SO BAD!

 

[KateTheGreatest]

I definitely agree for Behati but is she going to return this year?
She hasn't been cofirmed has she? I wish she would be though.

 

[zacatecas570]

I'd love to see Behati's comeback, as long as she doesn't open the show.

 

[Armani]

No confirmation from Behati as far as we know. Fittings are sometime during October - that's when we'll know the full lineup (Hadids? Prinsloo? Kloss? Liu Wen?)

 

[CommanderTMugler]

Behati will probably get it, but wouldn’t mind seeing Candice again or Taylor/Sara.

 

[AtticusFinch]

Barbara is walking?!? Wow

And what on earth with no Kate G?!?!?

 

[CommanderTMugler]

Meh, not that thrilled about Barbara, a bit annoying actually. They could have left her back in 2012.

 

[Aizanara]

I really don't understand their casting choices. Is it based on the girls, on their number of followers, on their walk?

I mean it's a mix of commercial and HF girls and it shows some diversity but it's weirdly done. Some choices don't make sense, the VS team is really out of touch about what's in and what's out. Barbara Palvin is the weirdest choice, she was in in 2012 but now she's not really the star she used to be.

 

[littlekiki]

Barbara Palvin is dating one of the Sprouse twins, which is sure to bring in some teen viewers.
