April 19, 20187 yr Yay for Samille shooting for VS. I hope she does more cuz she definitely can do better than those initial first shots.
April 21, 20187 yr I'm up for this. I don't particularly like this model but it would be great publicity to cast a trans model
April 21, 20187 yr Carmen Carrera is a beautiful trans model who is with Wilhelmina Models. I remember someone suggesting one time that Andreja Pejic should walk the VSFS and I was like.... no.
April 21, 20187 yr I don't like either of those models facially, but I'm not opposed to a transmodel. However, VS can't even meet the bare minimums of diversity with using Asian models and not starving their girls to size 0's so I doubt we'll ever see it happen.
April 21, 20187 yr Oh, I'd never heard of her but she gives me a Saylor Baby vibe in some of her photos.
April 21, 20187 yr It’s true if vs can’t have diversity why would they dare to hire a transgender model.
April 22, 20187 yr Victoria’s Secret Pink Will No Longer Sell Swimwear https://www.teenvogue.com/gallery/victorias-secret-pink-will-no-longer-sell-swimwear Well, damn.

They weren't selling well which is a little surprising. This is from last month's investor's statement. Quote VICTORIA’S SECRET MARCH COMPARABLE SALES WERE UP 1% WITH SOLID GROWTH IN BEAUTY AND MODEST GROWTH IN LINGERIE, PARTIALLY OFFSET BY A DECLINE IN PINK. IN PINK, LINGERIE CONTINUES TO COMP POSITIVELY AND WE ARE SEEING IMPROVEMENTS IN KEY SEGMENTS OF THE LOUNGEWEAR BUSINESS. THE DECLINE WAS PRINCIPALLY DRIVEN BY SWIM, WHICH WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF EXITING. THE MERCHANDISE MARGIN RATE WAS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY TO LAST YEAR DRIVEN BY ADDITIONAL PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITY IN ORDER TO DRIVE TRAFFIC. IN APRIL WE WILL CONTINUE TO DELIVER NEW FASHION WITH SUMMER ANGEL IN LINGERIE AND LOUNGEWEAR IN PINK.
April 22, 20187 yr I imagine taking away mainline swim was a hit to Pink sales. VS was no longer a destination for swimwear in the summer.
April 22, 20187 yr I wish they had the swim line still, I would eat that shit up. As long as they don't get rid of the PINK yoga pants I'll be ok. Those are my favorite they fit well and look good. They can get rid of their ugly clothes and some of their ugly models while they're at it.

GIRL This is so fucked up yet so accurate. I do love me some Carmen Carrera and would love to see her doing VS but i agree is not going to happen.
April 22, 20187 yr I was in the market for a one piece bathing suit so I went look at PINK and goodness they were tacky and only for super small chested women...or girls, for that matter. So I'm not surprised. I really do miss the mainline swimwear, though. I'm a 34DD and the cup sizes there were great. Still wearing a bikini I found there before they stopped selling them. I don't care how many seasons I'm seen in it, I'm wearing the damn thing because it FITS.

So I'm not surprised. How is a woman with small breasts suddenly a girl? She is as much of a woman as one with double D's. I agree that there should be sizes available for everyone but small chested women are still women.
April 22, 20187 yr I too have observed that a lot of the PINK swim designs are meant for small-chested women. Bandeau tops, tops that have that fringe thing at the front etc. Using models with small breasts like Maggie Laine (and previously Sara, Elsa etc.) Can’t remember a curvier model shooting for PINK even though on paper the line is meant for college-aged women.
