The thing I love most about Oluchi is her long long legs and her amazing skin. The colour of her skin is so beautiful and makes her stands out on every runway she walks.

The first show I really noticed Oluchi in was the Victoria's Secret Show. Beautiful smile & a great walk, in my opinion she stole the show. I decided to put up the 2007 show as it features Oluchi, but it was also one of my favourite Victoria's Secret Shows.
