Lara Stone's High Heeled Mishap

fashionologie — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 15:57:03 PST

>> Lara Stone readily admits that she can't walk in heels, and she wasn't kidding. Although she handled them just fine for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, she appeared at the after-party wearing flips flops, her ankle wrapped, which seems to verify the rumors last week that she had trouble wearing the Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte heels at an editorial shoot and had to go to the emergency room because of an accident.

2008 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Unveiled: Lara, Edita, and Sessilee Strut It

fashionologie — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 13:35:13 PST

>> After weeks of speculation, we got our answers. As rumored, Izabel Goulart is no longer a Victoria's Secret Angel - there is speculation that she broke her contract to work for Emporio Armani and Armani Exchange - but she, along with the Angels and 26 other non-Angel models, taped the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Miami on Saturday. There were a few casting surprises - no Asian models?; some disappointments - no Natasha Poly or Jessica Stam; and lots of newcomers - Arlenis Sosa Pena, Sarah Stephens, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Sessilee Lopez, Clara Alonso, Edita Vilkeviciute, Erin Heatherton, and even Lara Stone made it after all. Broken glass catwalk aside, Maryna Linchuk had a stellar outing - many have their bets on a Angel contract for her in the future - and Doutzen Kroes cozied up to boyfriend DJ Ruckus at the after-party. All in all, enough party to hold us over until the show airs Dec. 3.

fashionologie — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 14:32:52 PST

>> As the Victoria's Secret yacht rolled into Miami and the girls had a beach photoshoot today, we got to see of the 30 non-Angel faces that will be participating in this weekend's fashion show - 19 of them, to be exact. No sign of Lara Stone, Jessica Stam, or Natasha Poly, but after missing yesterday's event, Izabel Goulart is there. There are plenty of new faces - Abbey Lee Kershaw and Sarah Stephens represent Australia, Arlenis Sosa Pena the Dominican Republic, Maryna Linchuk Belarus, and Erin Heatherton the US.

Victoria's Secret Switcharoo: Izabel Goulart Out, Behati Prinsloo In?

fashionologie — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 11:51:25 PST

>> Intrigue is afoot. While we wait to see who bagged the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - and it's not Raquel Zimmermann, who is in Venice, shooting the Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 campaign with Juergen Teller instead - the Angels made a store appearance today in Miami. Izabel Goulart was noticeably missing, and Behati Prinsloo, who also has a VS contract, but mostly works with the company's PINK line, was there in her stead. Is Izabel no longer an Angel? There have been rumors about her leaving . . . And is Behati about to get a promotion?

Lara Stone To Do Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?

fashionologie — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 15:17:59 PST

>> Victoria's Secret may not have the cachet of say, Balenciaga, but it can make a model a millionaire. Although the lingerie company is currently taking heat for its rash-causing bras, its event of the year - the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - is still on schedule for taping in Miami Saturday night.

The Angels - Heidi Klum, Alessandro Ambrosio, Selita Ebanks, Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr, Karolina Kurkova, Adriana Lima, Marisa Miller - will all be there, but more pressing: Who are the unnamed 30 models who have also been cast for the show?

Fittings have been going on for the past week at least, and yet no names have leaked - the closest to a hint is this photo, above, of what appears to be Lara Stone in a Victoria's Secret outfit. She's not your typical VS model, but the possibility of a multimillion dollar contract in the future is enough to make any model try something new.

Rumor - Angela Lindvall to Host Project Runway All-Stars?

fashionologie — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 08:45:48 PDT

>> Heidi Klum has been Project Runway's host from the start, but as the show prepares for Project Runway All-Stars - an upcoming eight-episode spin-off series bringing back some of the show's alumni to compete against one another - Klum will not be pulling double hosting duties. According to a Lifetime spokesperson, All-Stars "is a completely separate show, with a separate host and a separate set of judges."

So who will be stepping in to host the spin-off? Originally, it was thought that Miranda Kerr might be a candidate, after she was spotted meeting with Project Runway executive producer Harvey Weinstein last week. But it sounds like Kerr is just in talks to be an All-Stars guest judge. Now, rumors have pointed in another direction: Modelinia reports hearing that Angela Lindvall has signed on as host. Lindvall has done TV - aside from walking in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - in the past: she co-starred in the green makeover series Alter Eco back in 2008.

Karolina Kurkova May Be Back on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Runway This Year

fashionologie — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 08:57:57 PDT

>> Karolina Kurkova hasn't been in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show since 2008, when she was ending her run as an Angel. But it sounds like she might be back onstage this year - she, along with girls like Jourdan Dunn, Jessica Stam, Caroline Trentini, Lais Ribeiro, and Lily Donaldson, were among those brought in for final casting callbacks for this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which tapes on Nov. 10. It's not unheard of for a former Angel to appear in the show again - Izabel Goulart, who was an Angel from 2005 to 2008, walked in last year's show (at the time, Kurkova had just given birth). [TFS]

Gisele Bundchen Brings the Blackcowboy Home

fashionologie — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 14:56:06 PDT

>> While her former colleagues get ready to tape the 2008 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Miami next month, Gisele Bundchen taped a music video yesterday in LA. The video - for Blackcowboy's new single "Come On" - is directed by Kevin Connolly, and Tobey Maguire and Lukas Haas were both on set, so it sounds like Gisele is still up to doing favors for friends of her former flame Leonardo DiCaprio. She apparently knows the band through Lukas - and they're lucky to have her, judging by how much buzz this shoot has already created for them.
