Amazonian Angels

'Let's get lost tonight, you can be my black Kate Moss tonight' Kanye West belts out aptly as Chanel Iman saunters passed him, dressed as a bionic beauty. Where else would this happen than at this year's Victoria Secret show. The VS show is a multi-coloured multinational celebration of near-nakedness at its finest. Think Disney on Ice costumes and props meets the perfectly polished Miss World of fashion. It's become an American institution; one part fashion week, meets Hollywood and the Superbowl all rolled into one glorious larger than life parade. It is a huge commercial accolade to be dubbed a Victoria's Secret angel, not to be snubbed by the high fashion crowd. The Angels are now a perfect melange of Sports Illustrated, Playboy bunny and haute couture, the cross over between the different world's of modeling has become seamless, since Gisele hit the scene in the early noughties. Let's praise the day the worlds most smoking hotties come out to play dressed like birds of paradise, sex kittens and scantily clad modern-day superheroes. This year's extravaganza include performances from the likes of Nicki Minaj, Jay Z and Kanye West. Any place where you can find both Alessandra Ambrosio and Kanye hanging out together is fine by me! See below for some of my VS 2011 highlights. Victoria's Secret = The American Dream ideal of beauty, squeaky clean with a soupcon of sass. Long Live the Angels :)
