The show featured themes including Ballet (full of tutus and ribbons), Super Angels (where they dressed as heroes), Passion (inspired by Spanish bullfighters), Aquatic Angels (where all looks related to the ocean), the dark & dramatic New Orleans-style “I Put A Spell On You,” and finally, Club Pink, a brightly-colored disco club closer for their loungewear line.

The ladies, including Anais Mali, Lais Ribeiro, and Emanuela De Paula strutted down the catwalk as Nicki Minaj sang “Super Bass” and Kanye West performed “Stronger” before being joined on stage by Jay-Z for “N****** in Paris.”

Lala Vazquez shined on the pink carpet in a colorblock combo with two of the sexiest men alive, Tyson Beckford and Maxwell.

Each year, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show features the brand’s most famous angels draped in the newest, sexiest, and most gem-studded styles of lingerie.

The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show will air on CBS on November 29.

How did this show compare to the previous ones?

Stars dressed the best for the big night. Both Lala and Serena Williams wore black; Lala in a form-fitting dress with jeweled headdress (a la BFF Kim Kardashian’s wedding look) and Serena in a belted gown with a high-neckline, hardware and cutouts.

Supermodels Tyra and Chanel Iman also walked the carpet; Tyra giving her best “smize” in a rich purple dress with a bow detail and Chanel in a flowy frock with a plunging neckline that almost showed off her goods.

The hosts husband Swizz Beatz looked dapper in an all-black suit, while his wifey and Kerry Washington both wore white; Alicia in a blazer with a gold shirt and Kerry in a striped and sheer number that gave us a peek at her bod underneath.

Name: Chanel Iman |  Model
Age: 20

Chanel first caught the attention of fashion admirers across the world when Anna Wintour, Editor in Chief of Vogue magazine, selected her as one of 10 girls to be featured on the cover of Vogue in May 2007, naming her as one of the “world’s next top models.” She was the youngest to ever grace the cover of Vogue, and now is the most successful African-American Model of her time.

Since then she has worked with top designers, top photographers, and been featured on numerous top magazines such as Harper’s Bazaar. We recently watched Chanel officially receive her wings in 2010 during her second appearance in the Victoria’s Secret Runway Show, now appearing as an “Angel” in many of their commercial campaigns. Chanel has truly become an angel for young minority girls everywhere who can see a face of color as a large symbol of beauty.

What we can expect in the future is for her to become not only the greatest African-American model, but one of the most accomplished supermodels of her time. We would love to see her get into design and entrepreneurship as well.

While promoting Victoria Secret’s new bra “The Incredible,” Chanel Iman told Us Weekly, “I eat to gain. I’m a big believer in having hips, butt and thighs.”

“I’m eating everything from steak to mashed potatoes; people hate me!” Iman, 20, laughed.

But unlike most women, keeping the weight on isn’t easy.

“It’s very difficult for me because I’m naturally skinny. I have to put on a lot of weight and work out to gain muscle. I love curves and being sexy.”

Top 10 Highest Paid Models Revealed, None Black

FROM WSJ: ARISE is the first global style and culture magazine to celebrate African achievement in fashion and arts. This season, they selected designers from South Africa, Nigeria, and Tanzania to present their collections to a packed house at the main tent at Bryant Park during Fashion Week. The runway show was titled “African Collective—Part III”!

South African label Black Coffee (Jacques van der Watt and Danica Lepen) featured oversized coats with wide collars in muted peach and tan colors. For the most part, the coats looked like they would keep a person very warm, especially those that looked reminiscent of comforters with quilted geometric designs. Underneath the coats each model wore the label’s concept dress, which can be worn in several different ways. Jacques van der Watt said the inspiration for the coats’ angular styles came from African masks.

The next collection, from Loin Cloth & Ashes (Anisa Mpungwe), frequently referenced origami figures. Tanzanian-born Ms. Mpungwe explained that origami is unpredictable, like her style: “You fold something up so simple into a beautiful piece of art,” she said.

One thing to note was her jewelry, featuring electric-blue geometric shapes, which Ms. Mpungwe said has a tribal look to it.

The clear favorite of the night, however, was the sexy, military chic collection from Nigeria’s own Deola Sagoe. Strong, structured shoulders on jackets, tassels, metallic fabrics and gold buttons were very prominent in her garments. “Ever since I was a child I was very fascinated by the military silhouette,” said Ms. Sagoe. “I like men in military uniform. They look together. I see the gold buttons, the cords. It’s very much attractive to me.” CLICK HERE TO READ MORE!
