Well look at the board! The pattern has been accurate for much of the past several years.

Adriana is opening the show (AGAIN) and Candice has the Fantasy Bra.

 

[marsnoop2]

And VS loves giving the FB to brand new mothers so Candice makes sense.

 

[Armani]

The hints point to either Candice, Elsa, or Lais, and them 3 + Alessandra would be my picks. If Ale isn’t getting the FB, she shouldn’t be slept on after all these years - at least let her open or close the show. If the pattern is true, as it usually is, Adriana will open and Candice will get her second FB, but if that’s the case its only fair if Ale closes.

I could never imagine neither Sara nor Taylor getting an FB. Honestly. I never got their hype (I like Sara more than Taylor, at least Sara has good energy on the runway unlike Taylor who is literally nothing but a pretty face with a well-proportioned body type...)

According to victoriassecretpix on Instagram, some items from Tough Love in 2010 will be reused in the Punk Angel segment... EEK!

 

[Littleathquakes]

ugh like last year when Ming wore Noemie's Blade Runner porcupine wings in the opening segment. I was hoping they'd stop re-using wings and bam, first segment.

 

[Fotoholic24]

I would love to see Elsa wearing the FB this year. If not, Lais or Candice, again.

I see a FB for Stella in the next couple of years, she have a great press/media presence and some high fashion credibility.

This forum, plus some others, will go C-R-A-Z-Y if VS try something new and give the FB to Taylor Swift... Like, now the female performer gets to wear it every year... LOL, even those members who dont post here would come to throw hate for hours!

 

[Armani]

Oh my god @ the FB for TS. I can only imagine how much heat VS will get, but they LOVE Taylor - I don't believe any artist has performed 3 times for the VSFS, + TSwift has tons of VS friends as well (both Lily A and D, Martha, Karlie, Gigi, etc.) (not saying her getting a fb is a possibility, but if it would indeed ever happen, i can only imagine the fan outcome... LOL)

I wonder if, along with the La Perla contract, Taylor might've been a part of Kendall not doing VS... after the Kim/Kanye/Taylor drama and Kim on Watch What Happens Next saying that Kendall isn't associated with Taylor anymore... but that's a stretch (maybe )

Yeah, I'm tired of VS reusing wings and outfits too. For the little commercial that Adri/Ale/Lily/Elsa/Jas/Jo did together last year, using outfits from 2013 was really cute and went along with the commercial. But in the actual fashion show, it only goes to show the team has 0 creativity and new ideas. It's also super sad that so many models have dreamed for years of receiving wings and finally got their well-earned wings, only to now see every other model on the runway with wings on their back and reusing old wings that models worked so hard for.

 

[vivalakenna]

Kendall didn’t walk for La Perla’s fashion show last week, so I’m going to call bull on an exclusivity contract being the reason she didn’t get VS. Why have a model on a supposedly exclusive contract, and then not even use her in your own show? Doesn’t add up.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Taylor was a factor. Either Kendall knew Taylor would be a performer and chose not to walk herself, or Taylor possibly blacklisted her. It wouldn’t be the first time it’s been rumoured that Taylor has had a say in the models- Jess Hart got dropped real fast after her comments.

 

[cocogirl]

Are they really re using outfits from years ago?? I wonder why they do that. It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me... Have they done anything like that before? (if so, when?)

Regarding the FB, I can see Candice getting it again or maybe Elsa... I'm pretty sure Alessandra will never get one again. I mean it took her so long to even get her first one, and they really didn't put much focus on her when she was on the runway wearing it. I find it really wrong of them to wait so long with Ale yet give Jasmine the FB so fast, yes she looked amazing but it's just not fair.

They reused many wings last year. They didn't really recycle the whole looks but they would put different (old) pieces together.

1 more day and we'll finally - FINALLY! - get to know who's wearing the Fantasy Bra.

The 3 most rumored girls to get the FB are Candice, Elsa, and Lais. Lais has the most proof of getting the FB from sources online. Candice is the most rumored model of getting the FB - and we all know how VS treats new Angel mommies (think Adriana, Alessandra, and especially Miranda...) Elsa has been a fan favorite to get the FB, and we must not forget the original FB announcement day was a week from tomorrow, which just so happens to be her birthday. Needless to say, the suspense is killing me, and I can't wait for the announcement tomorrow.

I find it really wrong of them to wait so long with Ale yet give Jasmine the FB so fast, yes she looked amazing but it's just not fair.

oh please... vs couldn't give a sh*t about fairness. jasmine got screwed last year. press (w mag) reported she would close the show with the bra and not only did she get bumped from the closing spot for lily freakin' aldridge, the worst walker to ever appear on the runway, she didn't even lead the finale. it's not fair to say that about jasmine when vs doesn't about fairness.

speaking of jas, i follow one of her fan accounts on IG and the account just posted a pic from last yr's show from stella's IG. stella is definitely the 'too cool for school' angel who's so above it all. if she's posting pics, she's possibly excited and what's she excited for? stella probably got the bra.

for me, it's always been stella or candice (candice because she had a baby and vs is really that regressive. in 2017. and stella is fame adjacent with her relationship with the twilight star). vs loves giving fame adjacent and or recent new moms the FB. so while i was going in this week thinking it was a 51% chance for candice and 49% stella, i now think it's 50/50 if not 51% stella. she may even have a punk rock bra for the balmain collection? she has that 'vibe' and olivier would love it . anyone thinking it's anyone else other than stella or candice is deluding themselves.

Couldn't agree more with the Jasmine point, both Ale and Jas were completely played with their (first) FBs. Ale had to wait more than a decade only to not open the segment nor have lots of screentime, although the segment as a whole was beautiful. Although it was Jas' 5th year walking in 2016, she still deserved it (not to mention a woman of color aka token black angel didn't receive a FB since Selita's in 2007), however she didn't open nor close nor lead the finale (Stella and Lily just so happen to be my 2 least favorite angels too... OOPS). A waste if I've ever seen one.

Never cared for Stella, but wouldn't be surprised if she got the FB. Of course, she's been in a relationship with Miley Cyrus and currently Kristen Stewart which already gives her star power not to mention how on fire she is in high fashion, but goodness gracious does she not fit VS. Regardless, the whole team seems to ADORE her. She's definitely not my ideal choice, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Thank you Armani for all this info everytime. I'm secretly hoping for Lais. I could also see Josephine getting it, but she said on Twitter that she'll have 2 outfits, so I don't think it'll happen. Elsa would be a good surprise, too. I can't wait for the announcement!

No problem, and thank you, Valentine, as well for your posts! Also wouldn't be surprised if Jo got the FB, and I adore her energy for VS, but they pamper her so much that regardless of whether or not she gets the FB she'll probably either open a segment or get two gorgeous outfits. The FB also takes very long to change in and out of, compared to regular outfits, so the model with the FB almost always has 2 outfits (at least recently.) Lais or Candice are my personal top picks, but I wouldn't mind Elsa or Josephine one bit. Goodness, I'm so excited... Suddenly I can't wait for Halloween to be over LOL.
