Victoria's Secret Swim Special

Every year Victoria's Secret Angels and models shoot the swimsuit campaign. At the end of 2014, after the annual fashion show, some of them posted pictures on Instagram announcing an upcoming secret project. After rumors of a fashion show featuring the swimsuit line, it turned out being a television special. It does not feature all of the shoots of Victoria's Secret's 2015 swimsuit collection. Indeed, some pictures were taken at Saint Barthélemy, including some models who are not featured on the television special. One of the models, Joan Smalls, was born in Puerto Rico and lived there for 19 years. Then Angel Karlie Kloss was not featured in the broadcast, fueling speculation that she had left the brand, which Edward Razek would later confirm. However, later the same year, all the featured models in the broadcast aside from Smalls would be revealed as part of the brand's newest Angels. ==Synopsis==
