to ask you to explain to me the big deal about victorias secret

[lovelyconverse123]

(apparently) hugely anticipated shows & the aspirations of so many females to win (what is perceived to be in some circles) the ultimate crown of being an angel ????

PUKE at the hollowness of it all.

Westfield Stratford has a big branch, not sure where else.

There's a branch at Brent Cross too, I have a few bras from them, all in the same style, and they are really comfortable.

they do not make bras in big cup sizes

knickers are ok but lots of the stuff is really cheaply made and very over priced

it is so hard to get anything above an E cup in the states

Don't really care about the catwalk stuff but its the only place I buy my bras now as they really are the best I've ever owned apart from Rigby & Peller. Don't care how they are measuring me either but these fit me properly, don't dig in at all and make my boobs look fab.

There are 10 stores around the UK now and more opening. Unfortunately you can only buy them online from the US and have them shipped over.

oh and they wash really well too. Mine are all beautifully made as are the matching knickers.

Not cheap as I'm paying minimum £40 a bra but they last and last.

I live in the US and just don't get the fuss. The adverts look like they're filmed in a cross between a brothel and a nightclub. I'm petite and their stuff would likely fit me - the shops just seem a bit ick...

VS is British? I associate that sort of marketing with the US but what do I know?

VS looks a bit cheap and tacky to me.

I'm in Scotland I guess there's none here yet - I will have a look though thanks

Their cotton knickers are the dog's bollocks. And I read on the bra intervention board on Reddit recently that they're sorting out their sizing, so live in hope.

And they plaster their awful ads all over their shops, neatly demonstrating to 4 yo DD what society thinks of women.

They don't do my size so I've never paid them any attention even though there is a store in my city. I'm also really put off by use of the word panties on their website.

Autocorrect of the day RJ.
