Re: Clothing Vents

  • Yeah they do have DDs in VS, the selection is just pretty pathetic.  They are usually pretty picked over, and most of them are just ugly as sin.

  • I think the last time I could buy a VS bra, I was 50lbs. lighter than I am now, but it was still a freaking D. Gah. I found a few cute bras at Fredericks and in their catalog that were "supportive" without being grandma-ish..

    [QUOTE]I'll jump on the bra-angry bandwagon. I'm not a heavy person but my boobs are large (34DD).  I don't know what I was thinking yesterday but I took my fiance with me yesterday to use a gift card I have to Victoria's Secret.  I honestly need a new bra, and wanted to get some fun panties, but he made the experience not all that fun for me.  He wanted me to pick out a "fun" lingerie piece to wear on our honeymoon, and I kept telling him that none of them would fit me.  I even humored him and we looked through a bunch of them.  The biggest any of them got was a 36C.  Lame. Plus there aren't many fun bras in my size, anyway.  Most of them are either tan (which are fine, I like tan bras... but not when I'm shopping for something FUN) and the ones that ARE colored are always the fucking ugliest bras I've ever seen.  What the hell?

    AATB-
    VS doesn't carry a wide selection of sizes in every style in their stores, and in fact doesn't carry all their styles in their stores, either.  You should take a look online on their website, you can search by bra size so it only shows you the styles they have in your size.  I think you'll find a lot more selection than you did at the store.  :)

    I'm going to ditto this. I wear a 34B, so I don't really have a hard time finding bras in general, but I prefer VS bras for comfort and, erm, "enhancement purposes". But VS rarely has more than a few of each size/style in stock at the stores, so even I'm SOL in the actual stores a lot of the time.

    But I love getting stuff through the website ... that's pretty much how I buy all of my bras and undies now.

    [QUOTE]Why is it that apparently it's so awesome to have huge tits in Hollywood, or in media images, and yet when you actually have them, you can't find anything to wear that makes you feel sexy?
    Posted by AllAboutTheBenjamin[/QUOTE]

    I hear you on this one. Its like every time I try to wear smtg sexy it either ends in gross boob spillage or ends up looking just plain skanky.

    I don't mind shopping for bras online, but it is really frustrating when you accidentally order the wrong size (because every company's sizing is just a little different) and have to wait an extra two weeks for your exchange to get there.

  • I actually DID go online today.  I had a VS gift card; I was hoping to find some fun panties to wear under my wedding dress and I actually have to get some new bras.  I was able to find some really nice ones - it's just that bras are something you like to know fits before you buy them, you know?  If they don't, I'll just send them back (I've done it before) but still, it would be nice to walk into VS and have no trouble picking out a bra.

    I would love to trade in my DDs for some full C cups.

    I hate pant shopping as well, my badonkadonk and smaller waist guarantees that I'll have butt gap on all pants, it's so effing annoying.

    VS online has a pretty good selection of 34DDs, that's where FI gets her bras and she's the same size.

  • AATB-  I'm with you on hating on VS sometimes.
    I'm a 36DD, and they don't carry most of their bras in DD.
    SERIOUSLY??   Most of your models have to be D or DD, WTF??
    I usually do find something, just not as cute as I want.

    I did go to their 7 for $25 panty raid this weekend.  (I hate that they call it that.)
    I racked up there.

    Haha, EXACTLY!

    I hate how their ads are like, "Hello, BOMBSHELL."  When I think of a bombshell I think of some impressive knockers.  Alright then... so where are the damn bras!?
