It doesn’t seem like a coincidence that Gisele’s major runway gigs are Victoria’s Secret and Dolce - both productions are heavy on the boudoir feel that vamps girls up with hairspray, cinched waists, and stompy satin pumps.
But the sex appeal on the Vikki’s Secret runway is juicy, flirty, and flounced; Dolce girls flaunt their sex instead, storming their bodies with leather bodices, eyewear poised between S&M blindfolds and satin sleep masks, rounded hips swathed in lace, rounded breasts shielded with fur. Dolce also clung fast and hard to their leopard print from last season, which is - at least according to Andre Leon Talley, who told us one afternoon in Bergdorf Goodman - their current bestseller.
The show was fun, but we didn’t learn anything new about fashion except this - Gisele still works damn well on a “normal” runway, even if the leopard prints she’s wearing sort of don’t…
