Bombshells And Femme Fatales Aren't For Fashion Posers
/Bombshells And Femme Fatales Aren’t For Fashion Posers
Victoria’s Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel fronts the campaign for the brand’s newest fragrance update Bombshells In Bloom. I was never a fan of the Michael Bay, testosterone-driven bombshell mentality of VS Angels jumping out of helicopters and strutting across the tarmac like they were about to cut off some guy’s testicles. Nor did I like the vulgarity of a Diamond Bombshell Bra. But this Bombshell In Bloom positioning is one I like: Forever flirty. Always sexy. Decidedly playful.
The word ‘Bombshell” and more often ‘Blonde Bombshell’ first made it into the dictionary around 1942.
