Monica Mitro, VP of Public Relations at Victoria's Secret says, "We do a major swim book every year. It has a lot of different themes the first theme was we were in the tropics in Turks and Caco and then we did underwater scenes in Freeport and here in L.A. we are shooting basically very high glamour."

Monica says the swimsuit trend this season covers the spectrum, "This year in swim it's really about color, bright colors and also prints and shine."

The beautiful model Extra's Steve Santagati spent a day with was Victoria's Secret's newest import, Brazilian model Adriana Lima. Believe it or not, Adriana wasn't always happy with her flawless figure. She says, "I didn't like my body before because I thought I was too skinny.

She certainly isn't alone. This bathing suit bible has page after page of exotic beauties. From poolside to surfside, once again Victoria's Secret's got you covered.
