Arlenis Sosa for VSX Sport 2013



Dominican model Arlenis Sosa has only walked during the Victoria's Secret Runway Show one time back in 2010. For this reason, it is such a delight to see her continuously featured in Victoria's Secret advertising online, in the catalog, for the VSX Sport line as well as the VS Swimwear line. She has a very fresh look and just fabulous features with smooth skin. She is most popular for being a campaign model for Lancome cosmetics for many years. Even though Arlenis has pretty much been absent from the VS runway, when it comes to VS online and print advertising, Arlenis Sosa excels and truly shines!

2012 VS Lingerie: Arlenis Sosa


Love seeing Arlenis Sosa in every single Victoria's Secret catalog that I receive! I hope to see her walk the runway for this year's Victoria's Secret fashion show! Keeping my fingers crossed.

2012 VS Ladies Apparel: Arlenis Sosa


Dominican model Arlenis Sosa Pena moved to the fashion capital of the United States, New York City, after completing her studies. Her modeling career quickly took off with the help of modeling agency Marilyn Models of New York. Even though she has only walked one time in the very popular annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show (in 2008), she has become a regular Victoria's Secret catalog lingerie, swimwear and womenswear model for the brand. Her photos show up often on the Victoria's Secret website. I am not sure why Victoria's Secret doesn't use her more on the runway. Just happy that I see her used extensively in the catalog because she brings a nice look to the current group of VS lingerie models. I have been a fan of hers for awhile now and I think that in 2012 she looks better than ever for Victoria's Secret!

VS Swim 2012: Arlenis Sosa


Dominican model Arlenis Sosa Pena is beautifully featured in this month's Victoria Secret catalog on several pages wearing both ladies apparel and lingerie. I received the catalog just a few days ago with my recent online purchase from Victoria's Secret. I was quite surprised because I was expecting to see more of Lais Ribeiro and Gracie Carvalho as the Black models featured. Instead, I saw several pages filled with beautiful photos of Arlenis Sosa! I have always liked her fashion modeling work and she looks fabulous for Victoria's Secret.

To see Arlenis Sosa also featured in the Victoria's Secret Swim 2012 video and accompanying marketing photos is a delicious "cherry on top" especially since she did not walk in the most recent Victoria's Secret fashion show. In fact, the last time she walked in the VS fashion show was in 2008 and the one outfit they gave her to wear was not that great.

Victoria's Secret seems to sway the direction of who they want to highlight quite frequently especially when it comes to giving exposure to the Black models. I remember when they heavily highlighted Emanuela, then Gracie, then Chanel, then Lais and now Arlenis seems to be the Black model that Victoria's Secret is heavily promoting for the summer season. I caught a glimpse of Gracie Carvalho in the first half of the VS Swim 2012 commercial and saw lots of Arlenis Sosa in the second half of the commercial. Nice treat. But where is Lais Ribeiro?
