I cant believe its over already…so much planning and organizing, so many rumors and speculations every year and all for a one hour long fashion show. Alright…I have a lot to say so this is probably going to be my longest post ever. I have seen all outfits now and lots of backstage pics and some short videos so I am able to have an opinion on the show now. Here we go…

The cast of this year’s show was nice. They had more models than ever before and a lot of new faces and I liked most of them. The stage/runway looked really impressive, definitely better than last year and I have to see the video to really judge it, but I liked the chandeliers and roses. The makeup and hair looked amazing on most of the models, like Doutzen Kroes and Inguna Butane….I loved Inguna with the straight long hair and I think she closed the show (yaaay). Sadly, they really messed up Adriana Lima’s makeup and hair. Too much bronzer, lips too bright, hair too dark and messy and I feel really really sorry for that because Adriana is in a damn good shape this year and she opened the show and wore the fantasy bra so she should have looked amazing, but the makeup artists screwed it. Now…the outfits. THANK you VS for improving so much since last year. Seriously, last year’s outfits were a disaster (can u say tacky?). This year’s outfits look very classy (well…most of them) and not too over the top. My favorites are Miranda and her butterfly wings (cuuuute!!!), Adriana and the fur coat, Doutzen with the huge red skirt, all of Angela’s outfits, Flavia’s cool hat in the PINK section and Alessandra’s golden wings. The wings were definitely more beautiful this year, Adriana’s white/black wings look divine and even Heidi’s red sparkly bow looks quite impressive. Things that surprised me… Carmen Kaas!!! Didnt think she would show up, how good Maryna fit in, how sexy Candice looked and how not too tacky the PINK section seemed.

All in all I am happy with the show this year, but I can only be sure on Dec. 3rd when CBS will show the entire show on TV…I cant wait! So…here is what you all have been waiting for…tons of pictures of the show, enjoy!!!
