Why Can't Victoria's Secret Stop Designing Racist Lingerie?

Victoria's Secret taped its annual fashion show on Wednesday in Paris, and as is customary, the creatives behind the production bundled looks together by theme. Models dressed in costumes fit for segments called "Dark Angel," "Secret Angel," and "Bright Night Angels" stomped down the runway at the Grand Palais showing off the sculpted results of their life's work and "naturally" enhanced hair.

The segment that opened the show was less Angel-forward, more "It's a Small World." You had all the heavy-hitters â€" Adriana Lima, Joan Smalls, Kendall Jenner, and Gigi Hadid â€" wearing the purple and teal lace lingerie that Victoria's Secret is ostensibly selling during its multi-million-dollar televised panty parade. Lady Gaga was singing. The catwalk was gold and glittery.

But look closer and you'll see that the golden glitter path is paved with unfortunate intentions.

Called "The Road Ahead," the segment featured costumes that were supposedly inspired by what you might call multi-culturalism. "This was the geography bit," according to the Telegraph's report, "a kind of round-the world trip courtesy of countless pom-poms and meters-upon-meters of fringing. American model Taylor Hill donned a rather beautiful Chinoiserie printed robe while Liu Wen, one of the four Chinese models cast in the show, jangled with pom-poms. Given the global appeal of the show, it seemed like a fitting way to begin."

Arpana Rayamajhi, a Nepalese jewelry designer based in New York City, described the theme this way: She said, "The idea is that you're blending little bits of this and that from all cultures around the world." Rayamajhi created much of the handmade jewelry for the segment; the jewelry included silk threads turned into tassels, coins from Nepal, and beads â€" "a huge part of my culture."

At a model fitting with Lais Ribeiro, other Victoria's Secret artisans told AOL that making the costume in question involved using "strips of culture." AOL explained that the panels were "truly worldly â€" inspired by the likes of Peruvian, Mexican, and Chinese design."

While Martha Hunt, in another behind-the-scenes video with Vogue, said that her look was "like Pocahontas meets Jasmine and they're going bull-riding."

Indeed, so many "bits of this and that."

None of that even sounds nice, but if it does, don't let yourself be hoodwinked by Victoria's Secret's brazen attempt to re-label what is clearly cultural appropriation by turning it into a celebration of "culture." The brand and its creative leads shamelessly cherry-picked imagery, breaking apart aesthetic references from wherever they wanted and stitching them back together again. They're telling us it's worldliness. It's not, it's a hack job.

Collection creative director Sophia Neophitou described the hand-painted fabrics used in this segment by saying, "It's meant to be this naive, homespun ... but this is so luxurious."

It doesn't get much more patronizing than that, does it? The original version is made by simple people ("naive") who make crafts ("homespun"), and it's Victoria's Secret that can elevate the primitive to something more "luxurious." What would be the point of the corporation's untold resources and unparalleled knowledge of world cultures if it couldn't do that?

Stripping of cultures aside, the emblems that stood out most were the ones that came from Asia â€" specifically China. The dragon that Elsa Hosk wore wrapped around her body, the embroidered stiletto boots seen on Adriana Lima, the tail made of flames worn by Kendall Jenner. There's a lot of talk of China as a dominant world power of the 21st century, and the U.S. government, Hollywood, and now Victoria's Secret, it seems, are pivoting to face a new reality. But the Orientalism on display here doesn't show an understanding or an attempt at dialogue. It doesn't close any gaps. What condescension, for Victoria's Secret to think that by wrapping a model in a dragon, it could connect directly with a new consumer in China.

With its positive, pre-emptive spin about globalization and multi-culturalism, Victoria's Secret seems to have anticipated my response. The brand is leading with the notion that we're all members of the human race, therefore everything belongs to everyone. But this is exceptional disingenuousness coming from a brand that once put Karlie Kloss in a Native American war bonnet and leopard print underwear. The fact is that even as the world gets more connected, a sexist, patriarchal, mostly white corporation continues to take what it wants for its own gain. Its exploitation of these cultural references is meant to lead directly to profits. And I'm not buying it.

Love Island's Katie Salmon flaunts curves in sheer catsuit at lingerie launch in London

She's never been one to shy away from flaunting her figure.

And Katie Salmon was up to her old tricks once more as she slipped into a skintight sheer latex catsuit as she arrived at the Prodigal Fox lingerie launch party at cafe De Paris in London on Saturday.

The Love Island star, 20, sported the daring printed figure-hugging number which featured a plunging neckline to her naval with silk ribbon lace-up detail in the midst of her ample cleavage as she debut her new bleach blonde tresses.

Skintight: Katie Salmon was up to her old tricks once more as she slipped into a skintight sheer latex catsuit as she arrived at the Prodigal Fox lingerie launch party at cafe De Paris in London on Saturday

Leaving little to the imagination, Katie's halterneck one-piece teased at her assets as she placed nipple pasties over her bosoms to protect her modesty as she flashed her black underwear while posing for photos.

She proved the phrase 'if you got it, flaunt it' in the jumpsuit that clung to her curves and pert derriere as she strutted to the venue.

Cutting the evening chill, the beauty - who shot to fame on ITV2's Love Island this year - draped an edgy studded leather jacket over her shoulders which featured a number of kooky badges on it as she held her nude clutch in her manicured hand.

Katie injected height into her petite frame as she adorned her feet with a sky-high pointed pump while sashaying into the venue with her team of equally scantily clad gals.   

Rock chick! The Love Island star, 20, sported the daring printed figure-hugging number which featured a plunging neckline to her naval with silk ribbon lace-up detail in the midst of her ample cleavage

Bottoms up! She proved the phrase 'if you got it, flaunt it' in the jumpsuit that clung to her curves and pert derriere as she strutted to the venue, posing with a pal outside the hotspot

Debuting her newly blonde locks, Katie worked her waist long tresses into a centre parting, teasing her locks into a straight style as they cascaded down her shoulders.

Surrounded by her lingerie clad pals, the stunner went for a full on glam beauty look with a heavy dusting of blush and slick of lipgloss across her plump pout. 

The reality star opened last month about a horrific ordeal that was left her bloodied and unconscious after a stranger spiked her drink with a date rape drug. 

Here come the girls: Katie injected height into her petite frame as she adorned her feet with a sky-high pointed pump as she sashayed into the venue with her team of equally scantily clad gals

Vamping it up! Leaving little to the imagination, Katie's halterneck one-piece teased at her assets as she placed nipple pasties over her bosoms to protect her modesty as she flashed her black underwear

She described her terrifying ordeal, which she believes to be at the hands of a fan she met at a West London nightclub, who plied her with drinks.

Police believe Katie took liquid ecstasy (GHB) and she reported that she had been robbed but not raped, in an account given to The Sun newspaper on Thursday.

Describing her exchange with a man she calls 'Dan,' she explained that the Love Island fan introduced himself, asked for selfies and began pouring her drinks.

Warming up! The beauty - who shot to fame on ITV2's Love Island this year - draped an edgy studded leather jacket over her shoulders which featured a number of kooky badges

She said: 'My friends told me that he spent the rest of the night following me around, trying to give me drinks and even waiting outside the toilet for me.'

The model has no recollection of the rest of the evening, but her last memory was from inside the nightclub bathrooms where she says she was 'feeling really weird'.

Katie then woke up outside a hotel covered in blood with cuts and bruises but no sign of her phone or handbag, three hours after leaving the nightclub with the man.

Goldie locks: Debuting her newly blonde locks, Katie worked her waist long tresses into a centre parting, teasing her locks into a straight style as they cascaded down her shoulders

She continued: 'I was crying hysterically and really shook up, I was so confused and had no idea what happened, all I knew was that I needed the police.'

The police believe the offender used a drug common on the London nightlife scene, GHB, which can send victims off to sleep.

Police were unable to test for traces and therefore closed their investigations, while the nightclub were unable to release CCTV footage, Katie says.

Chloe Madeley wears very racy lingerie as she is playfully tackled by her beau

Chloe Madeley has shared a very racy video on Instagram as she is playfully tackled by her boyfriend James Haskell behind the scenes of a lingerie shoot.

The 29-year-old fitness fanatic wears a black lace bustier with stockings as her rugby hunk lays upon her, as she shouts: I'm gonna be sick.'

Hammering the point home further, she captioned the clip with the words: 'When he manhandles you and you want to vom.'

'When he manhandles you and you want to vom': Chloe Madeley wore very racy lingerie as she was playfully tackled by her beau James Haskell in an Instagram post on Monday

Hey, good looking: Chloe is keen on healthy eating and fitness and it certainly showed in her latest post 

Chloe looked incredible on the day, wearing a Nineties inspired choker for the short video.

And her man wore a very cheeky expression on his face as he couldn't keep his hands off the pretty blonde.

The latest post comes after Chloe revealed that despite her love of healthy food and working out in the gym, she doesn't deprive herself completely.

Nice! The 29-year-old fitness fanatic wears a black lace bustier with stockings as her rugby hunk lays upon her, as she shouts: I'm gonna be sick'

Who could blame him? And her man wore a very cheeky expression on his face as he couldn't keep his hands off the pretty blonde

 Chloe shouted: 'I'm going to be sick' as the short clip continued 

She admitted that even she enjoys a glass of wine on Thursday, after sharing a motivational throwback snap with fans on Instagram. 

The personal trainer, 29, impressed her followers once again by uploading a collage of her impeccably shredded abs and and strong limbs - but admitted that she is not quite as lean as this now, thanks to 'red wine'.

Posing in nothing but a sports bra and thong, the four-way collage flaunted her impressive, gym-honed physique for her 120,000 followers to see.

Facing to the front for three shots, the daughter of TV legends Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan showcased her rock hard and rippling stomach, with not an inch of fat in sight, as she tensed for the cameras. 

Pushing her chest up in the tight-fitting plunging bra, Chloe also displayed her ample cleavage and tiny waist in the first shot, only adding to the envy-inducing content of the post.

Training the park: Chloe was captured putting fellow Rugby Wags, Jess Lawes wife of Courtney Lawes and Lauren Webber wife of Sale Sharks hooker Rob Webber through their paces during a Personal Training masterclass in Northampton in Thursday

In the final shot, the blonde beauty hammered her flat stomach home once again by posing side on to the camera - with her strong muscle definition coming into focus. 

However showing off her more playful side in the caption, Chloe admitted that this is not her current body weight - but instead her motivation for the future, after enjoying a few indulgences recently as the cold weather kicks in.

She wrote to her followers:  'Throwback to when I was a #lean mean #training machine...I'm still a training machine but thanks to red wine not so lean!' 

Stretch: The trio proved that they're just as in shape as their model husbands

Honing their figures: Chloe showed off her gym honed body with a series of sexy stretches while directing the girls

Finishing the post in similar witty style, she added with determination: 'The next time I'll look like this will be February, until then...' before posting a number of wine glass emojis. 

Chloe moved in with her long-term boyfriend James Haskell back in September - which could be the reason for her more relaxed attitude to fitness. 

Talking to Closer magazine just before the move, the blonde revealed that it was the wining and dining from the comfort of their own home that she was looking forward to most - rather than their joint training sessions.

She said to the magazine: 'Moving in with your boyfriend is a big deal.

In shape: The blonde bombshell takes plenty of pride in her appearance

Indulging: Chloe moved in with boyfriend James Haskell (above) in September - and told Closer at the time that she was 'looking forward to curling up with a bottle of wine or cooking a nice meal' with her man

'I'm looking forward to watching a film and curling up with a bottle of wine or cooking a nice meal with James. It sucks that we haven't been able to do that.'  

Chloe and the 31-year-old rugby player began dating in December 2014, after the Wasps sportsman pursued her on social media. 

The loved-up couple have since gone from strength to strength, with James recently admitting he had begun to think about marriage. 

James previously told the Daily Mirror: 'I was a bit of a player before I met her but she has 100% changed me.

'From the day I met her until now I have been completely happy, and 100% faithful.

'I can see myself staying with Chloe and obviously I’m 31 now so, yeah, the marriage stuff does cross my mind every now and then.'

Emily Ratajkowski displays her incredible figure in semi-sheer lace lingerie

She's one of the most beautiful models in the world - and Emily Ratajkowski showed off her incredible figure in white lace lingerie on Monday morning.

The 25-year old shared the sultry snap on Instagram, delighting her 9.5million followers as she took a selfie in the mirror. 

She captioned the image with one simple word: 'Night', just days after slamming photographer Jonathan Leder for publishing previously unseen naked photos of her.

'Night': Emily Ratajkowski displayed her incredible figure in a semi-sheer lace lingerie number after lashing out over nude photo being published

Standing in a beautiful hotel room, the brunette beauty pushed her locks from her face as she pouted, showing off a beautiful peach lipstick.

Emily shot to fame after stripping off for Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines video in 2013. 

'My body, my choice,' the actress and model wrote just hours before she landed at LAX airport on Thursday, following the photo release.

Flying under the radar! Emily was covered head-to-toe as she arrived at the LAX airport on Thursday

'My body, my choice': The model took to Twitter on Thursday to rant about nude photos of her from 2012 being leaked

The brunette beauty began her rant since Wednesday and tweeted her anger, stating: 'This book and the images within them are a violation.' 

The explicit photo shoot was done in May 2012 and some of the pictures have been widely reproduced by media outlets and magazines. 

News of the photos broke last week and Emily explained: 'I’ve been resisting speaking publicly on the recently released photos by Jonathan Leder to avoid giving him publicity. But I’ve had enough.'

Low-key look: The Blurred Lines beauty wore a loose-fitting black sweater which she teamed with light wash distressed denim jeans

She explained that the Polaroids were taken for an artful magazine spread and she never intended for the unused ones to be published.

'These photos being used w/out my permission is an example of exactly the opposite of what I stand for: women choosing when and how they want to share their sexuality and bodies,' she tweeted.

The genetically-gifted stunner continued her rhetoric on Thursday and wrote: 'To be clear: I signed no release & was not paid.'

Natural beauty: Emily went makeup-free for her travels which featured her flawless complexion

Details: The genetically-gifted stunner rounded out her low-key look was a pair of simple wire-framed glasses and dainty silver necklaces

'That said, the legal side of this is private,' she added. 'And I would appreciate it if people waited to base their opinions on facts rather than speculation or assumptions.' 

The Vogue Germany cover girl touched down at the Los Angeles terminal in light wash distressed denim jeans.

She wore a loose-fitting black sweater which she teamed with matching suede ankle boots.

Outrage: While she's happy to flaunt her body for fame, the model insisted via Twitter on Wednesday that it's up to her when and how she chooses to show off her figure

Her silky chestnut tresses were styled straight and parted down the centre for a classic look.

Emily went makeup-free for her travels which featured her flawless complexion and natural beauty.

Rounding out her low-key look was a pair of simple wire-framed glasses and dainty silver necklaces.
