Oh la la. The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2010 was on CBS last Tuesday, making it the sexiest night on television. Like any fashion show, the season's trends were quite noticeable in the skimpy lingerie outifts. The performing artists throughout the show were Katy Perry and Akon. And it was the beautiful Adriana Lima who opened the show and was the featured angel who wore this year's diamond bra.
The first walk through was called Tough Love. And a tough love theme it was. During this scene, there was a sense of Lady Gaga's fashion style. The models stomped to rock music while wearing large, bold shoulder jackets- one of leather and another of silk chiffon- and towering platform knee-high boots. The outfits also had a rebellious touch to them with studs and spikes embellished on everything- jewelery, shoes, the bras, panties, corsets and even some of the wings.
The second theme was country style, showing off the season's trends of plaid and laced-up boots. The third theme was called Game On. The models came out in sport themed outfits- boxing, soccer, a rhythmic gymnast with the ribbon, football, weight lifting and lacrosse. I absolutely loved this part of the show in particular because there were male gymnasts in the background working on the mushroom doing circles, straddle-ups and back tucks off of them. I did gymnastics for about 11 years, so seeing that be a part of another passion of mine- fashion- was pretty awesome.
In the fourth theme all the models looked so angelic in their wings, wearing nuetral tones made of silk shiffon and lace. As they walked through Akon sang his hit song Angel from his 2010 album Angel. During a television interview for the show, Monica Mitro, EVP Victoria Secret PR, said that this year's show had the biggest number of angel wings because all the models want them. The fifth theme was called Wild Things and the models came out in exotic animal prints, another trend for the season.
And where is the Pink section?- I wondered through out it all. But the producers left it as the grand finale and what a hit it made. PVC outifts were the first to come out in skirts, jackets and an umbrella. Perry sang some of her hit songs while these large ballons of all different colors floated and fell onto the runway. Then bubbles were added. It went perfect with the Pink theme, but did look a bit chaotic as the models walked through the balloons that were starting to overtake the catwalk. And the last model was Chanel Iman. She came out with a bubble gun, adding to the chaos, but it sure did look like fun chaos.
