Victoria’s Secret has announced the addition of five new models to their roster of Angels: Emanuela de Paula, Lindsay Ellingson, Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Chanel Iman.

A Victoria’s Secret contract is worth a fair bit of change, and will undoubtedly up the profiles of all five models. The annual fashion show tapes on November 19, and will feature familiar faces Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Marisa Miller, and Doutzen Kroes.

Congratulations to Iman, who is already one of the industry’s top models. She is considerably skinnier than most VS angels – it’ll be interesting to see her pull off the sex kitten look.

Found this amazing photo shoot over at TFS of the November 2009 issue of Vogue Paris’ “Graffi-Couture” editorial featuring model Raquel Zimmerman, shot by Mario Sorrenti and styled by Emmanuelle Alt. The photoshoot also features artist, KAWS’ artwork. The shoot perfected the co-mingling of couture and graffiti. I absolutely love it!

Lacey Gaga … WHY????

I just don’t get it.  Why in the world would you walk out in public like this?! Seriously, where are you going Ms. Gaga? It’s not even cute to me.  I’m all for standing out amongst a crowd and making a fashion statement, but this is just TOO much! I seriously think Lady Gaga would walk around naked if it was legal! Leave something to the imagination, as a matter of fact, leave something for your stage performances, lol. Oh jeez, what will she wear next?
