@Shispirina I have to disagree with you. My college roommate was a hefty girl and she always found underwear in her size at Victoria Secret. She was pretty huge, Now I know they never wanted overweight women in their fashion shows. But they also never wanted the waif type models. They liked women's bodies like Tyra Banks which was full bodied and properly proportioned.
@natalies7534 жыл бұрын
@Shispirina The VS sizes went really big OMG how big do people expect them to go!?! I wouldn't consider it a size restriction. At 100lbs and 5'5" they didn't even go down to my size in many of their clothing items. Wow I couldn't imagine being so large as to not fit into VS broad range of sizes! Damn time for people to look at what they are eating and drinking - soft drinks and McDonalds don't create people of a healthy size/weight, VS is wise to not accommodate the morbidly obese. Plus I don't want to be paying for the extra materials for fat people to buy clothes from the same range as me - there should be independent stores for the morbidly obese to shop at where they can cover the cost of the extra materials out of their own pocket and the clothes can be made to fit their body shape (the patterns would need to change as body shapes change considerably from those who would fit the normal size range VS offers and the morbidly obese who couldn't fit VS).

The underwear fall apart in the wash. I'm not hand washing a basic pair of underwear, the equivalent style of a pair of Hanes. Neon looks incredibly cheap. I wear a 36D and it's hard to find that very common size in store. Not only that, women who can afford their clothes don't want to have ugly logos and the word "pink" on everything. Their beauty items look cheap and if I can afford a $60 bra, I don't want the equivalent of a Coty body spray.

The panties looked exactly the same and when I asked why one was more expensive I was told that it’s because the second display has “sexier” panties
@allieeraee58395 жыл бұрын
Girl With A Laptop wow that’s laughable. You are right about obviously having higher prices for fancier bras but the fact that their underwear is so expensive when it’s very cheaply made and a lot of the clothes I have have gone up in price drastically like leggings are literally $80. $80? They used to be a lot cheaper
@girlwithalaptop56905 жыл бұрын
Alliee Raee jeez I didn’t know it got that bad, I bought my leggings on sale 😂 But without that sale $80 isn’t what those things are worth, they’re comfy but not $80 worth of comfy. And you know I really don’t mind a higher price tag, as long as it equals the quality. I’ve read some other comments talking about how they used to have silk products too, that would be great to bring back, and separate vs and pink as brands because they have no need to be blended together so much. Thanks for coming to my ted talk lol

As a baby adult who is learning about the true price of living; it is unjustifiable to me to spend over $30 on a bra that only truly adds a label to my wardrobe. I can get cheaper, cuter, and more flattering undergarments and clothing at any other store. VS fails to recognise who the consumers are as people, and that we no longer care about the label but the quality of the clothing.

VS has fallen because: 1) quality needs to be better 2) need to carry larger sizes!! 3) definitely bring back swimwear and clothing 4) stop catering to a younger crowd, it's starting to feel a bit juvenile (I mean that's why you have the pink section) 5) maybe revamp the stores. are they feeling a bit out dated? 6) pick better models that are good brand reps. And they're getting too skinny. think: Tyra, Heidi, Giselle, Doutzen 7) have better shows: bring back the original runway mixes, maybe less music acts (there were 8 this year, but maybe it's to make up for less model-personalities they have now-a-days), stop recycling the same costume themes.

These stores started off with great ideas, and LBrand wants to saturate the market. Just like starbucks (the McDonalds of coffee houses).

I can't believe they didn't mention one of the reasons VS has declined in sales is their sizing! I worked at VS for 4 years (2013-17) and this was a constant issue for women -- and myself! While working there I was about 120 pounds wearing an XS/S but was 32DDD in bra size. I often told my customers that if I gained any weight, I'd no longer be able to fit the brand I worked for. The average bra size in America is 34DD yet VS only went to DDD until recently . . . Nonetheless, this still is major issue because they offer larger band and cup sizes but make it difficult to access because the customer will have to order online because the size isn't available in store. As a second job, I worked in Dillard's lingerie dept and the sizing was much better, so I hate to say it, but I would often recommend my VS to head to other retailers like Dillard's because while the bras weren't glamorous, they were functional, comfortable, and made the woman look good in her clothes. Ultimately, in my last year at VS, I grew out of their sizing. They need a wider range of sizes and cup shapes such as full coverage.

I wanted to be a VS Angel when I was younger because they were so beautiful, as I’ve grown up I’ve noticed I’d never be one because of my body type. Due to that, and they test their cosmetics on animals, I don’t support them.

As a straight male, I watch female fashion shows to see women; not men. If someone wants to see men on the run way; or men who dress up like women in a magazine, then that's their preference;; but it's not mine. If they start putting men on the run way then I won't be watching. What's next? the Miss America pageant. Women's Golf ? It's a womens' contest dumbasses!

More: There are WHITE MEN (and women) who IDENTIFY AS BLACK; and ALTER their appearance to look black (even use technology and surgery). But the NAACP has every right to deny them a "black scholarship" meant for natural black people. It doesn't mean the NAACP is "trans-phobic" in a racial sense. The same logic applies with Victoria's Secret or Miss America turning down men.

One thing I’ve found interesting with the brand is that they seem to have gotten more and more unrealistic over the years. While the original angels were still obviously stunningly gorgeous with perfect bodies, many of them actually got work with the company because they were considered too curvy or busty to fit into the high fashion sample sizes of the time. And while their shows included a mix of both the waif era supermodels and the more bombshell bodied supermodels, I found that doing so was actually more inclusive than what they have now with every single model having pretty much the exact same body measurements as one another, plus they all seem to have extremely tiny waists with their chests seemingly only existing whenever they’re wearing a massive push up bra so I always found it funny that they’re selling bras increasingly using models who don’t even have to wear one everyday.

@@Workouts11038 VS market strategy isn't working... sales are down. Everybody loved what the original angels embodied, and nobody likes these new instagram models because they don't represent what the brand stood for. I think weakening the brand. VS Created supermodels and household names, that had great personalities and shapely bodies. Now they are chasing after instagram models that don't have curves and lack personality. It's kinda sad. Also the only people following them and want to buy what they're wearing is under 25 yr olds, leaving out the majority of the female market, who can actually afford their products, and I think why their sales are down.

@@Workouts11038 i dont really care about all that. i just think they dont measure up to the beauty standards. they are bringing the curve way down. now the industry is flooded with these women who are mildly attractive. nothing like the models of the 90s. this is why nobody cares anymore. its no longer a dream when not one model on that catwalk would stand out in a crowd. if the quality of your product is at best, forever 21, and the fashions arent jelling with current styles or even vintage, THERE IS YOUR PROBLEM. i dont know where they get the idea from that women dont wear victorias secret athletic gear. i see "PINK" wherever i go. even today. i understand marketing very well, but marketing has nothing to do with my comment. but thank you for your reply. it isnt fair that women can buy their way into modeling. just like it isnt fair that people can just go out and buy record deals because they would never be signed any other way and its the lack of talent. the world knows it. it isnt a dream when you can just buy anything you want. you didnt earn it like those other models. bella gigi kylie and many other victorias secret models shouldnt be models. how shameful. they have to know people are thinking it

My gf is a stacked 36DDD. Victoria's Secret doesn't carry that size so we've never shopped there. Her favourite brands are mostly European. Getting handmade tailored bras also isn't as expensive as it might seem, because although it's $200-300 the bra will last decades, fits perfectly, looks amazing and no cutting in or pinching. My gf finds a lot of cheap brands like VS offers sell designs which cut into the shoulders or have painful underwire in place of structured support.

“Unrealistic body type” means that it doesn’t represent the average woman. I see a lot of people saying that “as long as that body type exists it’s not unrealistic” but they’re missing the above point. In addition, NO ONE is trying to discredit you if you look like that. I just got done reading a comment thread about this where some women who claim that they do look like this were attacking other women for being “jealous” and “lazy,” but what they don’t understand is that many woman literally DO NOT have the time or even body type it takes to achieve a body like a VS model. Some people are too short or even too tall or don’t have the bone structure. But some people also might have the potential and CAN’T because they’re working 40+ hours a week and can’t spend 10+ hours a week at the gym, or they’re mothers who prioritize their children over looking like a model, or they’re in school and want to focus on schoolwork instead. There is an infinite number of reasons that women may not be able to look like the women in VS ads, and they shouldn’t be called “lazy and jealous” because of that. Beyond that, women shouldn’t be attacking other women over this. Unrealistic standards are something that ALL women have to deal with, and we should be leaning on each other to help overcome them, not going at each other’s throats because maybe you do fit into one standard.

Ramdom Guy first of all, you’re not free all 24 hours of the day. You’re supposed to sleep 8-9 hours, leaving you with only 15-16 hours that you’re awake. If you work a full time job then you’re spending about 8 of those hours at work, maybe even more depending on your job. It’s about the way you prioritize your time, and the average women doesn’t prioritize looking like a VS model. On top of that, VS models work out for HOURS. It not like taking 20 minutes to go on a run every day will make someone look like that. These are all valid reasons that a woman might not look like a VS model. Another good one? Most women ARE NOT VS models, so why should they have to look like one? Secondly, this is quite hypocritical coming from someone named hiding behind the username “Random Guy” and a red screen of a profile picture. I doubt you’d go up to a woman in real life and say this to her.

They need to choose a market and stick to it. If they want to sell the ideal of skinny, beautiful, fantasy lingerie, they need to up their prices and quality. It's been consistently shown that if you price your items at, say, $100, but once a month have a flash sale that lowers the price to $40, people will value your items at $40. This has happened to handbag companies like MK, where there is a severe disconnect between branding and customer perception. They want to be seen as a luxury item, but because of their flash sales and accessibility, their time as a "status symbol" is over. VS needs to either change that, and begin to market themselves as an accessible, inclusive brand (like Aerie) or double down on it and improve quality and stop having flash sales (like Lululemon).
