Victoria’s Secret launches the sexy 2014 swim collection, which coincides with the release of the brand’s coveted Swim Catalogue. This year’s Swim Catalogue was inspired by “Angel Journey’s” to the most glamorous beach destinations in the world. The first catalogue in the series was shot by fashion photographer Russell James in Saint-Tropez, France. Angel Candice Swanepoel appears on this year’s cover wearing the Very Sexy Lei Bikini in plumeria pink.
Candice Swanepoel was born in Mooi River, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. She has walked in the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show since 2007 and can be seen in a variety of their print and television campaigns. Candice counts being featured on the cover of Victoria’s Secret Swim Catalogue as one of the highlights of her career: “It’s such an honor to be chosen for the cover of the Swim Catalogue. The swim shoots are my favorite part of being a VS Angel and it’s amazing to see all our hard work come together in a beautiful catalogue.”
The hot trends seen in the VS 2014 swimwear collection include cutout and lace-up details, hardware accents, animal prints, and black and white swimsuits. New swim silhouettes include the high-waist, flounce styles and long line bikini tops. Customers can also create their perfect suit by mixing and matching an array of colors, prints, styles and sizes to show off their individual personalities and shapes.
Go on location with the Angels in glamorous Saint-Tropez for a look at Victoria’s Secret’s Swim 2014 collection and get the 411 on some of their favorite trends in the new, must-see swim video ‘Victoria’s Secret Swim 2014: Trend Watch’ featuring Candice Swanepoel, Alessandra Ambrosio and Gracie Carvalho.
