They pad and tape their breasts so not all are busty. These days the girls are exceptionally thin 0-2 except for ones signed to long term contracts like Adriana Lima. They are very pretty and not necessarily commercial and usually have strong Social Media followings. A girl like Natalia Vodianova would not be a VS girl because she looks too young but she's perfect for all other types of modeling. Gisele Bunchen was with IMG when signed to VS. My girl was with Name. She did tons of lingerie. So much these days is about how much of a following you have along with being very thin, i.e. Behati Prinsloo who is very thin and married to a famous rocker. So anytime she's in the celebrity news they mention her name, name recognition is a big thing too. Gone are the VS days of Heidi Klum etc. The models like Lara Stone who are perhaps a bit bigger than 0-2 may or may not work for VS. She's a major supermodel with curves. Kate Upton also of IMG worked for them briefly but she actually was considered too curvy for them. They have gone more mainstream modeling these days. Also alot has to do with personality, can they get the job done ASAP. A girl like Chanel Iman who is unique looking, commercially pretty, but very thin has worked for them. She is dating a Rapper. If the girl is a celebrity married to another celebrity yes that helps because they are trying to get a following based as much on personality as they are on the girl's looks. Kendall Jenner the tallest and most thin of the Jenner family worked for them this last 2015 show. She has no curves to speak of while her friend Gigi Hadid had plenty but still is quite thin. Both are fit girls. So the girls are very fit along with being thin but without obvious muscles using Pilates etc. to elongate their bodies rather than major weight training which would make them look more like a Fitness Model than Lingerie Model. I've booked and sent models all over the world and they are very strict on the two different types being very different.Jacquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15608227074639161151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768796656331806390.post-41371793751814840732016-03-26T00:00:27.572-07:002016-03-26T00:00:27.572-07:00Hi, Maleigha!
