To think it is weird for Victoria’s Secret Pink to have a ‘back to school’ range

Is it weird for Victoria Secret Pink to have a ‘back to school’ range? It just seems a bit like it’s sexualising school clothing, for example, the first item in this range on their website is a black lace thong. Or maybe I’m being prudish?

Pink is for teenagers so it's not that weird imo

Joggers ffs not howlers GrinGrin

I've got a Pink sweatshirt and howlers that I rock with my Angel wings

I do think that when they're known for sending models down the runway in giant Angel wings and scanties you've sort of got a handle on their marketing strategy.

I’m not 100% but I think pink is like their ‘teen’ range. When I’ve been in it’s mainly leggings/tracksuits and things, and the underwear isn’t true same sort of stuff you’d get in Victoria’s Secret.

Aren't teenage girls the main buyers if Victoria's Secret? It's 'a thing' to have one of their bags isn't it?
