NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2013/ — The face of Candice Swanepoel greeted Victoria’s Secret customers when they visited their mailboxes today. A favorite among the Angels, Candice Swanepoel landed the cover of the first of the four Victoria’s Secret 2013 swimwear catalogue which will be sent to U.S. households during the season.
A native of South Africa, Candice Swanepoel was born in Mooi River at South Africa’s KwaZulu-Natal region. She has walked in the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show since 2007 and can be seen in a variety of their print and television campaigns.
Candice counts being featured on the cover of Victoria’s Secret Swim Catalogue as one of the highlights of her career. “It feels amazing being on the cover of the Swim catalogue! Before I was a model, I used to see Gisele [Bundchen], Tyra Banks and all of those iconic women on it. It is amazing that a little South African girl can get on the cover,” says Candice.
The 2013 swim collection is available at VictoriasSecret.com, in the Victoria’s Secret Catalogue, select Victoria’s Secret stores nationwide, and on the Victoria’s Secret All Access iPad and iPhone apps.
The trends featured in this year’s VS swim collection include embellishment, novelty fabrics, seductive prints, neon, and mix and match pieces. Customers can create their perfect suit by mixing and matching an array of colors, prints, styles and sizes to show off their personality and shape.
