Brittany’s Blog: Victoria’s Secret 2011 Fashion Show: Gorgeous Clothes, Gorgeous Models

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Purdue chapter.

Well, I must say I am always intrigued to watch the Victoria’s Secret Fashion show, which aired this year on Tuesday, November 29. I am a Facebook fan of the beautiful, world-renown lingerie store, and had been watching YouTube videos that were posted of fascinating information that goes into the show. Some of these videos included makeup for the event, special outfits designers had been working on all year, and even how much glitter that goes on to the runway. Needless to say, I was extremely excited.
 
As Tuesday night crept up, and as I looked at my Twitter feed, I could definitely vouch for the fact that the female sex was not the only gender watching the event. Guys crowded up in rooms to watch the event like it was the Superbowl, but sexier. Perhaps that’s how they perceive it, (not that I can blame them). However, it is hard to be a girl and watch the most beautiful women who are unbelievably fit
and bronzed walk down the runway with such confidence in lingerie. I almost wanted to sulk into a bowl of ice cream. I figured I should keep my chin up and give them credit because let’s face it girls, these Victoria’s Secret models do work hard to stay fit.
 
As for the outfits they wore, they were fascinating. So much creativity and hard work goes into these pieces.  Here are a few of my favorites seen on the runway!
 
How about the kiss from Adam Levine in slow motion? This was one of my favorite moments from the show as well!

 
This show is something I always look forward to and it never disappoints. With Adam Levine, Jay-Z, Kanye, and let’s not forget Nicki Minaj, it was a great year of entertainers as well. I am definitely looking forward to next year’s event already!
 
Much love,
 
Brittany Cole
