Victoria's Secret Revealed as Poor Craftsmanship

I love shopping at Victoria's Secret, just the smell of the store is enough to induce salivating. Lately though, that special feeling I get from walking out with a $50 bra has been ruined 2 months later by said $50 bra completely falling apart.

So this blog entry is a letter to Victoria's Secret, Incorporated.

Dear Vicki's,

Listen, I don't know if you folks have been paying attention but this country (indeed this world) has been dealing with a financial crisis for a couple of years now. That said, who are you to turn out a bad product and market it for such a high price when your regular customers expect the quality that you've always provided?

Let me provide some examples of your poor attention to detail:

I'd like to point out that all of these bras are less than 3 months old.

The only one that's been able to keep up any shape is the adjustable purple one (the last one pictured) which, though marked as a 36D fits like a 34C (I purchased it without trying it on due to the fact that no associate at the store would look me in the eye, approach me or acknowledge me in any way). It's also a huge pain to adjust. I couldn't wear the bra for nearly 3 weeks because the "adjustable" straps got stuck in the center anchors pictured above and it wasn't until I threatened it with a seam ripper that the bra finally gave up and allowed me to remove the strap from the anchor.

This isn't the sort of positive experience I've had with Victoria's Secret in the past and due to the fact that $150 worth of bras are malfunctioning on me, I'm anticipating a Toyota like trend growing with their company. Had it just been one bra in the history of my purchases then obviously I'd consider it as an oversight in production... but 3? Two of which were purchased at the same time?

Sorry, that's a little too much coincidence even for me.

In conclusion, Kohl's, WalMart, Macy's and JCPenny has my booby's business now... unless I need something really pretty for my boyfriend's birthday in which case, I'm still sure I can find something really nice at Macy's.

Sincerely,
