Victoria Secret Fashion Show 2014 1

We may as well start things off with lingerie giant, Victoria’s Secret, who have revealed the addition of 10 new angels to their stable of runway ponies. No Candice Swanepoel for us South Africans, but there’s something for everyone. Also, while many campaigned hard for such high-profile models as Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, the two gals unfortunately missed the cut. (This time around, at least!).

The 10 new girls are Kate Grigorieva, Taylor Hill, Elsa Hosk, Martha Hunt, Jac Jagaciak, Stella Maxwell, Lais Ribeiro, Sara Sampaio, Romee Strijd and Jasmine Tookes.

Say hello and meet the 10 new and Super Sexy Victoria Secret Models
