Dear Vicky S.,
Yesterday I threw money away in one of your stores. I’ve been in need of “restocking” for some time now and was a little disappointed with your selection. Even more disappointing was the store manager …what a bitch. She was consistently rude: attitude, rolling eyes, slamming shit around on the floor. I know I could have asked her name and called your customer service number, but I value my life (and chest) so I opted to avoid eye contact.
Today I was excited to wear the ONE decent bra I purchased. Only, it turns out to be rather indecent. “Bad” indecent! Underwire should not leave me aching and adjusting/hiding behind my office door after six and a half hours of wear.
Rather than go back to the bitchy manager’s store and exchange, I’m going to drive out of my way and hope for better staff and selection.
Angrily yours,
Pants
i have odd sized jiggojugs and when i asked for my size, the girl pointed out the bras that are bigger than most of my shirts; it was like an 18 hour cross your heart and your entire back and your belly bra. so i asked if they had anything cuter and she replied, “well, all of our pretty bras come in 34C or 36B because that is the perfect size. that’s what all of our models wear” perfect size?? my tidds may not look like gisele’s, but i have not heard any men complaining when i unleash them in their faces like a high performance boxing speed bag. so VS can suck it. for now. until i need cute panties. then i am all over it.
See, this is why I do my underwear shopping at Target.
Um at least they never told you that they “don’t carry as small of a size” as you need. Seriously. She looked at me like I was crazy to think I could shop there. Me and my small boobs will shop elsewhere even though my full first name is Victoria and my last name starts with an S.
I’m on the Gap Body bra team. Supplemented of course by clearance goodness from Target.
1) Don’t ask nursing mothers to leave your store when you have booby mannequins facing the world from your windows.
2) Would it KILL you to carry a nursing bra?
3) Would it also KILL you to carry a bra larger than a DD?
Bleh.
Glad that we all agree Vicky S is Satan.
I went from multi-year frequent flyer to absolutely despising this brand. Once upon a time, VS had really beautiful stuff, and well made. Last I bought there (…might be as long as 10 years back) the quality was so shitty, I was embarrassed to own it. Not to mention more than half the catalog looks a half step from Fredrick’s. Their store windows with “THONG SALE” – umm, yeah, sexy. Not tacky at all.
May sound crazy, but I have fab stuff – both the solid basics and the saucy-le-sauce stuff – at Nordstrom’s. More expensive, but it wears perfectly and for a long time. Totally, Victoria’s can Suck. It.
also: “jiggojugs” – bwahahaha!!!
smart choice, going to a different VS. an ill fitting bra can really mess with a girl’s outlook on life!
I’m told my jiggojugs look fine but an ill fitting bra really does mess with a girl’s outlook!
I am so furious on your behalf… pain… anger…
Solution to my bra woes was an insane sale at Kohl’s…80% off, cute and functional. HOORAY!
