2017 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show | Review

I've spent the last 10 minutes thinking how to start this post, but nothing happens, so let's get into business without a cool intro😁

I had to post a gif with him, sorry haha

I've read a lot of bad reviews about the show, but I liked it. I don't know if it is because my taste is broken (does this exist in English?🤔😂), or because I haven't been watching the shows for that long and I haven't seen the old good days. But, even though I liked it, I must say there were a lot of meh moments, and I mostly paid attention to my favourites. Also, I am just talking about the models and the performers, because my thoughts about the outfits haven't changed since my last post. 

And, before I start, if you haven't watched the show, it has been uploaded to VS website: https://www.victoriassecret.com/es/fashion-show/videos


The intro was a bit meh (yep, we already are with the meh haha). I liked the intros they used to do presenting the angels and the artists, and I missed it this time.

Punk Angels
I am not the biggest Candice fan, but she had a great opening. The idea of two models walking at the same time wasn't bad, but most of them didn't look coordinated. Martha and Stella 🤦 Ale looked great, but then you have Lily next to her looking very serious, and she ruins the moment. Karlie and Cindy did great (tbh, I liked Karlie's attitude on this segment better than on Winter's Tale), Alexina 😍 and Grace and Ming Xi were perfect. My dear Harold (aka Harry Styles) nailed it too. The song is amazing, and those dance moves!! He also let the models do their thing, which is higly apreciated. Though that hello/goodbye at Jasmine at the end is 😍 



Between segments video: This was cute. I liked seeing how much the outfits have changed since Adriana and Ale started walking until now. 


Porcelain Angels
It was such a shame that Josephine had a bad walk day... I don't know if it truly was because they wings were too heavy, but htey had to cut most of her opening :/ And on this segment, besides her, the only one I like is Blanca. She nailed it 😍 The performer, this Miguel guy... Meh/I didn't like him. 



Between segmetns video: Most people hated this JoJa video, and was like... ok. I would have prefered if they had shown some of the workouts they do on their instagram account, but I didn't hate it. Another thing people have complained about is that they showed Josephine a lot during the videos and backstage, but I won't complain about that. She is one of my favourites, and she is basically living of VS while probably ruining her career on HF, so they better give her something important now that Ale left.


Winter's Tale
This segment will be remembered as the one where Ming Xi fell. Even though I don't feel bad about her falling because that happens all the time and it probably is the most important thing she has done on her career, I don't like the way VS showed it. They were cruel. First they show her all happy and nervous because she is on her city and her family are there, then the fall, and the her crying. Rude. I would have left only the part of the fall and Gizele helping her, and also Lily's hug, showing that they care for each, friendship, team spirit. But nah... 
Karlie's outfit on this segment was my favourite, but she ruined it with that Adriana moment 🙈 And Martha closing 🙈🙈🙈
The singer was ok. If you think about it, Hamilton has been huge this year, so it kind of made sense having him. And I really like what he said at the end: It happens to the best of them. Sometimes you fall, but get back up. Fall down 7 times, get up 8.



Between segments video: I really like Grace, so I wasn't bothered by this video either 😀 And Zuri... doesn't she look like a girl from Disney Channel, from that Descendants movie? 🤔


PINK
From PINK my favourite thing was Grace, she was amaaaaazing, and also the performer. That song is totally my thing.



Between segments video: This was another cute video. The photos of the girls when they were kids💜


Nomadic Adventure
Here is where most people got mad at VS. This was filmed as the last segment, and Alessandra, who is leaving the brand, was closing. Who was the idiot who chose to not close the show with this segment? WHO?!?!?! 😒 And not making a quick video about Ale and her best moments, something like what they did last year with Adriana... 😒😒😒 I am mad and I've never liked Adriana as a model 😂 On this segment I liked Elsa and her Swarovski outfit, Romee, and Cindy. She did great both times she was on the runway, and I think I have to start paying her a bit more of attention. Ale did an Adriana at the end, but it wasn't annoying to watch it was the moment to do it. And Miguel, again, meh.



Between segments video: It was ok too. The allowed the performers to say something, and I think they usually don't do that.


Goddesses.
This was my favourite segment. The outfits, the music... perfect 😍 Romee did a great opening, she looked gorgeous, same as Taylor, though she went a bit unnoticed (same as the Fantasy Bra. Again. Though not as much as other years). Sanne did great too, though they barely showed her (a lot of people complained about them barely showing the models) And Blanca 😍😍😍😍 Thank you VS for showing her so much. And Harold was perfect again. The only bad thing on this segment was the closing. Why Vanessa? I was curious about how she would do, and she disappointed me. You can't close the show with that VS, you can't.
