Chi sono i nuovi Angeli di Victoria’s Secret

Come ogni anno, è arrivato il momento di scoprire i nomi delle modelle che, per la prima volta, prenderanno le ali dei Victoria’s Secret Angel. Molti dettagli dello show di lingerie più importante del mondo sono ancora avvolti nel mistero, ma sappiamo già i nomi delle supertop scelte per calcare la passerella del Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2018. E, tra queste, saranno 18 le nuove entrate di quest’anno.

Considerato da molti l’apice della carriera di modella, l’annuale sfilata di Victoria’s Secret ha la capacità di proiettare un volto fino a quel momento sconosciuto nell’empireo delle supermodelle. Tra i volti nuovi di quest’anno, la prima modella filippina a sfilare nello show ma, in generale, si prospetta uno spettacolo etnicamente piuttosto inclusivo: top model arabe, inglesi, nigeriane, tedesche e olandesi sfileranno fianco a fianco in un rutilante “melting pot”.

Ma andiamo a vedere chi saranno i nuovi Angeli di Victoria’s Secret per il 2018!

I had a break down before i walked into the most nerve wrecking casting of my life. I asked my driver to go around the block twice before i could walk into the @VictoriasSecret offices so i could re coup, and remember (while my trainer @bodybymato reminded me on the phone through sobs – thank you lol) how hard I’ve been working! I went in and made new friends and saw old friends and it already felt like home! We patiently waited while @ed_razek @johndavidpfeiffer @monica.mitro @10magazine carefully took time to get to know each girl. When it was finally my time, within my nervous storm of anticipation i changed into a black Victoria Secret set and stepped out!!!! I spoke to them about Jamaica, @nick_knight , my abs, and how i was beyond honoured to be given the opportunity to try out.. then I walked for my life!!!! I can’t believe this!! Thank you for giving me all the energy and kindness in that room! Thank you for allowing me to walk for VICTORIA’S SECRET! Thank you to my agencies @firstaccessent @womenmanagementnyc @women_paris @thesquadmanagement my pr @remibrb my agent @mannyuk and mama bears #sarahstennett & @thelilmisse for having my back supporting and believing in me! I love you guys you’re FAMILY!! Thank you mommy for praying with me everyday for the past 3 days. And thank you so much to my fans who have been pushing me forward to this point in my career. I’m so blessed thank you Lord!! IM WALKING THE VICTORIA’S SECRET SHOW! Thank you Vogue for the exclusive interview 😭🙏🏽💗🙈
