Beauty & Fantasy in Paris ~ Victoria's Secret

This evening the runway watched world wide is filled with beauty, fantasy, and excitement. Victoria's Secret, a lingerie company started by Roy Raymond, presents this seasons spectacular collection at Grand Palais. These 6 collection grace the runway with the top models and musicians in the world.
Performances included: Lady Gaga, The Weekend, and Bruno Mars. The performances brought an additional excitement to the runway fashion. Bruno Mars' "24K Magic" was a perfect song for the Bright Night Angel collection.
The Bright Night Angel collection included the $3 million dollar bra worn by Jasmine Tookes. This collection represents the sexy girl that want to have fun from sunset to sunrise. She dresses from head to toe in embellishments and stilettos for the night out. This collection closed out a night of romantic fashion that is set for many women on the road to love.
The road ahead collection represents a woman traveler.  This traveled road is filled with the richness in culture, and history of ancient lands. The collection filled with details to the tradition. The attention to beading, feathers, and textures. This woman is looking for an exciting adventure in love.

The Secret Angel collection is looking for a sensual and seducing love. She relates to the old Hollywood tempting woman to steal your heart. The collection is much like a modern boudoir. The collection represents this with the long coats, long stockings, and designs that are captivating collection.
 

The most intriguing collection is the Mountain Romance. This brings a fun and playful nature down the runway. The collection is very traditional to an alpine maiden. The use of velvet, wools, and embroideries bring the collection to a true wholesome and a dancing maiden in a field of wildflowers.
A favorite collection is the empowerment collection Pink Nation. This collection has a sporty feel and look. The collection has a younger sense and energy. There is an attitude of I am woman hear me roar. It is a collection that is perfect for a girls weekend.
Dark Angel is exactly that. She is looking to be a bolder, in control, and a little wicked while standing strong. She is in charge and stands strong in her position. The collection is made from leather and latex. It had some simmer and shine on the runway. 

This runway represented a strong diversity of women. The first time for sister to walk together in the show (Hadid sisters Bella and Gigi), and a pregnant Irina Shayk. There were familiar faces Kendall Jenner, Adriana Lima (she always gets the audience involved), and Angel Alessandra. The evening was filled with beauty and fantasy.
