Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in review

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2008, which aired last night on CBS, put the glamour back into this annual event that is known more for the half-naked models that walk the runway than for the fashions.

Although the Angels did adorn their signature scant attire, the VS lingerie was transformed into fabulous fashions that anyone could admire.

The show started off introducing the angels in all of their sexy splendor accompanied by a performance from guest star, Usher. He interacted playfully with the girls on the runway while showing off his perfected moonwalk moves.

The camera panned a crowd of recognizable celebrities as they watched the angels in their ensembles clad with leather straps, buckles, sequins, and sparkle.

The second section of the show featured an ethnic performer who provided the Angels with a steady beat on the bongo drums. The girls turned the runway into a sea off mesh, lace, and patent leather, with some models encompassed by feathers or full skirts.

The PINK section was the time for the models to have a little fun and dance to a techno-pop song as they walked in comfortable bras, boy shorts, flannel boxers, and playful accessories.

The finale of the show took an artistic turn with an Angel clamoring down the runway garnished with a trellis skirt entwined with leaves and roses over top of radiant red lingerie.

The fireworks outside the Fontainebleau Hotel signaled an end to the event that showcased Victoria's Secrets dedication to undergarment fashion, giving men nationwide something to talk about until the Next Sports Ilustrated Swim Suit issue comes out.
