From leather and lace to garbage bags and tape.
Former Victoria’s Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Stella Maxwell, Sara Sampaio, Martha Hunt, Elsa Hosk, Lily Aldridge, Lais Ribeiro and Leomie Anderson recently reunited for a new lingerie shoot — with a trashy twist.
The supermodels swapped their VS teddies for literal teddy bears for More or Less magazine‘s aptly titled “Earth Angels” shoot, rocking “faux-fashion label Kezako’s upcycled underwear made from aluminium wrap, dried-out loaves of bread, old newspapers, cuddly toys and then some,” per the glossy’s Instagram post.
A few of the ex-Angels were even given back their wings: Swanepoel, who’s rumored to be dating Kanye West and has modeled for both Yeezy and Kim Kardashian’s Skims, wore a pair fashioned from trash bags and tape for one dramatic snap, along with a bodysuit crafted from reclaimed leather.
Ambrosio, meanwhile, struck a sultry pose in a bodysuit made from plush toys sourced on eBay, in a look dubbed “Frankentoys.”
“The most disruptive thing in fashion right now is humor,” More or Less founder Jaime Perlman told The Post.
“And we always try to inject some into serious subjects. Sometimes fashion can take itself a bit too seriously. I think there is a hesitancy for people to go more eco because it’s a heavy subject and will scare people off.”
Much like their inventive ensembles, the former Angels’ poses were equally recycled — from their years spent strutting the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show catwalk, that is.
Consider this sexy shoot proof that, as the mag put it, “one person’s trash is another’s smokin’ hot look.”
