Be careful what you wish for. One such dress cost $2,500, just for the dry cleaning! Ok, this wasn’t just any dress. It was a silk Chanel haute-couture embellished with thousands of pearls, beads and Swarovski crystals, valued at (sit down for this price tag too) over $100,000. This is just one of many works of art from top designer’s that find there way to high end dry cleaner, Gerald Pozniak, owner of Jeeves, www.jeevesny.com. “When a client seeks Jeeves for couture cleaning, they know they are getting the best. The Jeeves staff are craftsmen, with decades of experience.” Such high-end pieces undergo labor-intensive, hand cleaning that can take up to 30 hours for some intricate and heavily beaded pieces like the Chanel dress. Jeeves also employs special stain-removal tactics on ultra fragile garments and undergarments. In fact, Jeeves is also the official dry cleaners for the "Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show." Pozniak was behind the scenes working his magic during the taping of the show, scheduled to air on Dec. 10. From lipstick, to glitter, to body make-up, Jerry and his staff work diligently, by hand, to clean all those panties, bras and angelic wings. “This year the show featured a lot of white costumes, all of which showed makeup stains, so consequently this year we had more costumes to clean than any year prior.” Model Candice Swanepoel opened the show strutting down the catwalk wearing a $10 million Fantasy Bra and belt that contained over 4,200 precious gems. So, next time you want to slip on some intricate, sexy undergarments or a high-end couture gown, don’t worry about stains or spills.

December 26, 201311 yr Author It Semi-Annual Sale time again!!! Here is what I have gotten so far (online):The Cardigan
December 27, 201311 yr So did I miss something or is Pink just starting to release like real clothing, not just loungwear? Or has this always been a thing? More VS Pink
December 28, 201311 yr Author OMG it started already, I thought it didn't start till after January 1? Online now, in stores on January 2nd So did I miss something or is Pink just starting to release like real clothing, not just loungwear? Or has this always been a thing? They did sell real clothing like skirts, dresses, halter & baby doll tops (I have a PINK halter), sweaters, cardigans, denim (I own a pair of PINK jeans), coats (I have a PINK down coat), jackets (I have the Letterman from the VSFS 2006: http://img44.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=11237_Jessica_Stam-VSFS_2006-Ripped_by_VampireHorde-HD10_122_785lo.jpg) ...that's all I could recall for now It was available mainly in stores. I don't think the items did too well. However VS is pretty persistent. Even if products don't so well, 9/10 times they will discontinue them but bring them back a few years later
December 28, 201311 yr ^I figured that out when I went in the store today And I had no idea....my VS store is pretty small so the selection is limited, and I had never seen them online. Interesting PINK has got more stuff I'll have to pay more attention!
January 4, 201411 yr Author In store purchase so far: 3 pairs of PINK panties, PINK flare sweatpants, T-shirt, and 2 Dream Angels "Desire" EDP
January 4, 201411 yr ^Cute! My semi annual sale purchases as of now: NOT pictured is a floral PINK sports bra and lip plumper
January 4, 201411 yr Author ^ Great buys! (Y) You gotta tell me how you like bronzing dry oil. I have the non-dry version of it that doesn't come in a spray bottle. Pretty messy! The semi-annual is a big disappointment this year in stores. Better deals offered during December, like $25 VSX bras now on sale at $32.99. Doesn't deserve a new commercial.Really? I totally scored at mine! The SAS has been shitty for many years. In fact it gets worse & worse each year I remember back in the late 90's and early 00's (damn! I feel old ) they had more assortments & variety. The quality, designs and price points were also significantly better & more reasonable Also, back then most bras were rarely over 24.99 and they had 1.99 panties!
January 5, 201411 yr I behaved myself this time around during the sale. I got these slippers: And then only two panties. xD
January 5, 201411 yr ^Damn how did you do that? ^ Great buys! (Y) You gotta tell me how you like bronzing dry oil. I have the non-dry version of it that doesn't come in a spray bottle. Pretty messy!

I haven't tryed the oil yet, more likely I'll be breaking it out in Spring, considering I'm all covered up over here right now anyway! And I've only been shopping at VS the last 5 years so I can't really judge whether its worse or not Though I guess its understandable why they needed to up their prices, just as everything else has only gone up. Though they could have increased the quality a bit too (but then they wouldn't be making as much money, and we know businesses like money) I'm going back again tommarow with some friends, wish my wallet luck
January 5, 201411 yr Author I behaved myself this time around during the sale. I got these slippers: V376294.jpg And then only two panties. xD I have those slippers in satin black. Love them! PINK panties?
