Victoria's Secret 2008 Fashion Show Takes Wing

2008-11-17T11:08:00.000-08:00

Victoria's Secret once again set the standard for outrageous and uncompromisingly sexy lingerie in an annual fashion show that has come to represent the ultimate in feminine fantasy against a backdrop of glitz and glamour. From the high-stepping long-legged super models to the star studded audience, the newly renovated Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach rocked out.

Heidi Klum was the feature attraction, but she was joined by 34 other models, including Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Karolina Kurkova. And, yes, "angels" took wing.

R&B singer Usher, who seems to be a fixture at these events, started the show on Saturday (Nov. 15) with a rousing version of “Yeah.” He was greeted by Lima, who appeared on the X-shaped stage, wearing a $5-million diamond-studded “Fantasy Bra, silver boots and the tiniest of bikini panties. It was that kind of show.

Jeweler Martin Katz designed the bra. It was decorated with white and black diamonds and rubies, and will be for sale in the company's catalog. "I always wanted to wear the Fantasy Bra. It's the first time that Victoria's Secret makes a black diamond bra," Lima said. "A woman could definitely buy it if they love it and men, too."

At a time when the nation is struggling through a tough economy, the show should provide a welcome diversion. It will air on CBS on Dec. 3 at 10 p.m. Viewers will see a stage covered with tiny mirrored pieces of plastic and two silver palm trees. “The theme of the show is a return to glamour," said Victoria’s Secret Chief Executive Sharen Turney. "Victoria's Secret is about sexy and the new sexy is glamorous for this season."

It didn’t take long for Victoria’s Secret’s trademark wings to make their appearance. Selita Ebanks was the first to don a pair and walk the catwalk. Designer Martin Izquierdo crafted seven pairs of wings for the show. He said Greek mythology and butterflies were his inspiration.

Model Miranda Kerr wore wings with the multicolored butterflies. The wings bold featured bold colors with geometric designs influenced by 1920s flapper designs. Klum closed the show with the most spectacular costume, a red bra, bikini underwear and expansive red wings that looked like a Christmas bow – no doubt to remind shoppers the holidays are fast approaching.

While most of the action took place on the catwalk the audience was rife with A- to D-list celebrities. Sean Diddy Combs, Gwyneth Paltrow, Russell Simmons, Michelle Trachtenberg, John Stamos, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Martha Stewart, Paris Hilton and Sylvester Stallone were among those who stood out.

In two of the most daring looks, svelte-looking Karolina Kurkova and Danish model Doutzen Kroes sported skimpy G-strings. Models wore bras gilded with Swarovski crystals. The youthful, pastel Pink collection was countered by lingerie from the black tie collection, which featured all black designs.

"The show, it's based on lingerie, but it's about creating an event," ‘70s New Wave icon Debbie Harry told the AP. "It's just a big, wild extravaganza and I think that's what attracts me."

Old Hollywood's glitz and glamour returned to the Fontainebleau Hotel Saturday night as the recently renovated resort played host to the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

In the '50s and '60s, the Fontainebleau was a bee's nest of celebrity activity: Frank Sinatra played the nightclub. Jerry Lewis filmed The Bellboy. Sean Connery's James Bond swam in the pool in Goldfinger.

On this night, Paris Hilton struck a pose on the pink carpet. Heidi Klum primped and prepped backstage for the catwalk. Robert Duvall and James Caan arrived as a team to work the crowd.

From the humid air to the no-holds-barred attitude, the scene was steamy as A-listers convened to watch the annual fashion show and celebrate the reinvigoration of the resort. The show was taped for broadcast on Dec. 3 (CBS, 10 p.m. ET/PT).

Iron Man star Terrence Howard was pointedly honest from the front row: "I'd rather see beautiful lingerie lying on the floor."

The lingerie line's holiday-themed event featured a full orchestra, a glitter-drenched runway, 35 models and two performances by Usher. Victoria's Secret veteran Heidi Klum walked the runway only three times, but her showstopping gift-bow wings closed the festivities with panache. Husband Seal watched from the front row, flanked by pals Lenny Kravitz, Mario Lopez and Howard.

Among the other stars in attendance: musicians Diddy, Mario and Cee-Lo; actors Kyle McLachlan, Sanaa Lathan, Amanda Bynes, Gabrielle Union, Molly Sims, Becki Newton and Michelle Trachtenberg; athletes Jeff Gordon and Amanda Beard, and a slew of reality stars, including Paris Hilton, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian and Kristin Cavallari.

In addition to Usher's medley of old and new hits, including Yeah! and This Ain't Sex, models hit the runway to the thumping tunes of Chris Brown and Kanye West while a shower of synthetic rose petals rained down. The couture collection of sparkling bras, panties, coats and dresses marks the first time the show featured "full-on collection flavor," chief costume designer Todd Thomas said. "This year's focus is glamour, sophistication and the return to elegance."

The ramped-up glamour was a hit.

"I thought it was beautiful," Hilton said. "Breathtaking."

The show featured a $5 million, 1,500-carat bra worn by Brazilian beauty Adriana Lima — an extravagance in tough economic times. But Klum said there's no need to dwell on the negative. "You always have to look forward even when times are bad," she said. "You have to look to the future."

That's just what Klum's former Project Runway protégé Christian Siriano is doing. Siriano said he's working on a book, designs for movie costumes and a new Egypt-inspired collection. The projects "will be out of control," he promised. "You will die."

Outside the elaborate poolside tent that housed the show, stars marveled at the 54-year-old Fontainebleau's $1 billion face-lift.

"It's extraordinary," George Hamilton said. "It's going to change the landscape. It's just what Miami needs."

The 1,504-room luxury hotel sits on 22 acres. It features 11 restaurants and a 40,000-square-foot spa.

"I think it's great," Martha Stewart said. "They're trying so hard to make everyone comfortable."

Adriana Lima is clearly the right woman for the job, as the Victoria's Secret model revealed an enviable silhouette as she modelled the lingerie brand's new Miracle bra.

The 27-year-old Brazilian born model sent temperatures soaring as she stripped off to model the company's push-up bra.

Aspiring actress Adriana who has had a cameo role in Ugly Betty, is probably best known for her work with the racy lingerie company which launched the careers of models Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks.

Her first fashion show for the company was in 1998 and since being contracted as an Angel in 2000, she has appeared on subsequent shows ever since.

Now the face of the Miracle Bra, Adriana has a starring role in the 2008 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, where she will wear the $5million gem-studded Fantasy Bra.

The bra is encrusted with 3,575 dazzling black diamonds, 117 certified one-carat round diamonds and 34 rubies, and nearly 3,900 stunning gems,

Adriana's new advert comes ahead of preparation for the underwear label's highly anticipated fashion show, which will also feature fellow 'angels' Heidi Klum, Miranda Kerr and Marisa Miller.

R 'n' B star Usher Raymond will appear on the show which will be broadcast in the US on December 3.

Klum recently posed for Jordache's new jeans line, which campaign was shot by "Rush Hour" director Brett Ratner at Chateau Marmont hotel in West Hollywood in a large suite.

"She was topless the entire shoot and she looked amazing, you can't believe this woman has had two children. Her humps were in perfect shape. And she was not shy, everyone got a peek at them," an onlooker told Star.

Selita Ebanks is something of a rarity: a supermodel born not in Brazil or Germany but in the Cayman Islands. Ebanks grew up on Walker's Road in the capital city of George Town. She began modelling at age 17 and has since appeared in fashion magazines from Glamour and Marie Claire to Vogue and Nylon. She has also appeared in advertising campaigns for Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Levis Jeans. In 2005 her career took another step upwards when she was chosen to appear alongside established models like Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks in the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show television special.

Extra credit: Banks, who was retiring from modelling, symbolically passed her Victoria's Secret wings to Ebanks on a November 2005 edition of The Tyra Banks Show... According to a 2005 CBS press release for the Victoria's Secret TV special, Ebanks "was discovered at the age of 17 at New Jersey's Six Flags Great Adventure by Women Model Management" and is "of Caymanian, Jamaican, Irish, Indian, and African heritage."

Australian Miranda Kerr began her professional modelling career after winning a 1997 contest for the teen girl magazine Dolly. She was a skinny thirteen-year-old at the time, and her win added to the ongoing debate over what's age-appropriate in fashion; the dust-up helped boost Kerr's career and she has since modelled for designers, magazines and catalogs. A multi-racial and dimpled brunette, Kerr gained a higher profile in 2006 when she signed on with Maybelline cosmetics and was picked to model lingerie for Victoria's Secret.

Extra credit: According to Chic Management, Kerr is 5'9" tall... Some sources list her birthday as 20 February, some as 23 February... Kerr plays a pretty girl in the video for the song "Number One" by Pharrell and Kanye West.

Gisele Bundchen has quit as the face of Victoria's Secret lingerie, because they reportedly would not increase her US$5 million annual salary.

The Brazilian supermodel ? who formerly dated Leonardo DiCaprio ? was the top Victoria's Secret Angel but has now ended her contract after they allegedly refused to meet her financial demands.

"Her demands were outrageous," a source told Brazilian website Glamurana. "She got a new lawyer who was unrealistic.

"Victoria's Secret doesn't care. They have five new hotter, younger girls debuting next year. And they won't have to deal with any craziness."

Gisele's sister, Patricia Bundchen, confirmed the model had broken off her contract talks with the lingerie company.

A representative for Victoria's Secret declined to comment.

Tyra Banks in a Hot Victorisa's Secret Outfit

2007-04-29T05:13:00.000-07:00

why we like her?

Tyra Banks is the world's most accomplished African-American model, and her determination and passion for what she does is inspiring; sort of... she mostly poses for a camera. Nevertheless, she deserves to be our sexy model of the week.

why is she famous?

People still tend to think of Tyra Banks as "just a model," but with an appearance in three movies that recently came out, including Coyote Ugly, she's ready to show the world that she can do more than just pose for photographers.

quote

"Black women have always been these vixens, these animalistic erotic women. Why can't we just be the sexy American girl next door?" -Tyra Banks, on her status as a sex symbol.

bio

Tyra was born in Los Angeles on December 4th, 1973, to a very loving and supportive family. Despite the divorce of her parents when she was only six years old, and the torments of her older brother Devin, Tyra's youth was happy and trouble-free.

Karolina Kurkova in Victoria's Secret Fashion show

2007-04-14T01:22:00.000-07:00

why we like her?

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then we could write volumes about Kurkova. Her long, blonde hair, and body that was sculpted for lingerie, harken back to the larger-than-life supermodels of the past.

why is she famous?

Well-known in her Czech hometown since her early teens, Kurkova drew attention in North America after appearing in the Victoria's Secret popular TV specials and gracing the cover of Vogue. She has since been living the life of a true supermodel, with magazine and runway appearances aplenty.

quote

"I don't really have a New Year's resolution to go on a diet or anything like that. I am who I am, and I don't want to be somebody else. Mother Nature made me the way I am, and I should be happy." -Karolina Kurkova

bio

Born in the town of Decin, Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) on February 28th, 1984, Karolina Kurkova had a slight taste of what celebrity would be like, as her father Josef Kurka was a star basketball player. As a child, her height made her relatively awkward and gangly, but that would all change with age.

Karolína Kurková is a Czech supermodel, best known as a Victoria's Secret angel. Kurková has made more than 80 magazine cover appearances.[citation needed] Most recently, Kurková has appeared on the cover of Korea's W, as well as the Greek Vogue. Kurková has been featured in fashion spreads in most major fashion magazines including UK, U.S., and French Vogue (as well as other international versions of Vogue), Vanity Fair, The Face, and W. She has worked with well-known fashion photographers including Steven Klein, Mario Sorrenti, and Mario Testino.She was also featured in the 2006 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.Kurková is also set to make her film debut alongside Frankie Muniz, Harvey Keitel and Amber Valletta in Howard Himelstein's coming-of-age dramedy, My Sexiest Year.

Heidi Klum in Victoria's Secret Outfit

2007-04-11T00:56:00.000-07:00

why we like her?

Where to start? Supermodel Heidi Klum's nickname is "The Body." Her endless legs are insured for $2 million. She's comfortable wearing underwear, which she looks spectacular in, on a runway. Heidi has one of the sexiest figures the world has ever seen, a pretty smile, a humble personality, and a down-to-earth and wacky sense of humor. All in all, she's the total package; the vixen you can bring home to meet Mom.

why is she famous?

Heidi Klum has been a regular model for Victoria's Secret since 1997 and for Sports Illustrated since 1998. She has appeared in a number of movies and television shows, and in 2004, she began hosting her own show, Project Runway. Heidi is the epitome of what it means to be a supermodel; that's probably why she has become one of the most recognizable and highest-paid models in the world.

quote

"You should spend your money on some nice lingerie. Big wool cotton pants, that just doesn't work. You have to feel sexy."
-Heidi Klum

bio

Heidi Klum was born on June 1, 1973, in Bergische Gladbach, a small city in Cologne, Germany. In 1991, while she was still in high school and doing well in mathematics and art, Heidi was encouraged by her friend Karin to participate in a modeling competition.
