Advantages: great support, range, helpful
Disadvantages: sizing not aways available in some styles
I am a huge fan of Victoria's Secret. I have been buying from them for a couple of years now, I don't always have enough money to buy but still they send me a catalogue. I seem to get e-mails regularly with money off codes or the actual catalogues about two a month.
Victoria's Secret has always been known for it's underwear and the reason that is, is because it is so good. The bra's in particular. At first I was weary of buying their bra's because I know the sizing is different. The good thing is on the customer service section on the website they have a sizing guide from European to US or UK to US sizing so you can work out your size easily. By following this guide I managed to get my size correct and have had no problems ever.
So the bra's, well I have now bought about three bra's since being with the company and I have to say they are my favourite bra's. When you log onto the website there are a range of bra's. The ranges are wide from Very Sexy to the P!NK range and Signature Cotton.
It is easy to find what you are looking for on the website. You can search by size and see what is available or you can search by padding, special occasion, range or style.
Style covers DD cup, demi cup, plunge, sports bras, wireless, corsets, size A. As you can see basically everything so that you can narrow your search down easy and find everything that you need.
Very Sexy Range
________________
This is not a range I tend to buy a lot from because some of the bra's are just a bit too outrageous for my liking but if you're into that kind of thing I suppose it's good. The majority of these bra's are very lacey and push up bra's to give you more of a plunge. There are a lot of corsets in this range too. It's a lot of barely there kind of bra's which are still tastefully done but I prefer a bra that isn't held together by string. A lot tend to be made from very sheer material that you're not wearing for support.
P!NK Range
__________
This range tends to be the more young and fun range. I have bought bra's from here before. They sell their cheapest bra's here ranging from $19-$20. They are good support bra's and come in a wide range of vibrant colours and patterns which you never find anywhere else. They are comfy and also this is like the loungewear range so nothing really showy is found here. The bra's are made of less exotic material. I find the one I bought is of great quality and gives good support but is also still a nice style.

In my opinion this is the best range. I have bought two bra's from this range. They are always changing their colour ranges about so you can get all kinds of colours, from beiges to plums, to teal. My favourite is the Shaping Demi Bra. All sizes are available in this range and they are made well to give great support, comfort and to look good. They have full coverage, half coverage, wireless, racerback, pretty much everything. These bra's are seamless and so smooth that it looks better under tighter fitting garments.
A new thing that they have introduced is called Ipex it's a new bra formula created and now patented by the company which I have seen La Senz try to rip off. What this basically means is that a graduated pad is seamlessly integrated at the apex of the bra cup, when combined with the smooth fabric it is lightweight and has good coverage. The Ipex models tend to cost over $40, I have yet to buy one but they have had a lot of praise.

These are a new range again, pastel coloured bra's. They have also patented the Secret Embrace bra which has apparently been voted the best bra in the world. It is seamless, supportive and looks well designed. I want to buy this as well. I love how every range sticks to its own colour range so that they are all good for different things.
What I like about this catalogue is being a woman I feel the models do justice to the bra's without making me feel as if I'm looking at a pornographic flip book. They have chosen classy models such as Tyra Banks, Gisele Bundchen etc. They model the product with sophistication and sell it well.
The bra's are usually if not just cotton somewhere around $32-$38 this converts to somewhere around £15-£20. The only annoyance with this brand are I tend to like bra's then find out they aren't avilable in my size which can get frustrating although it isn't long before a new one comes along.
The range is constantly being updated which is good and they are always trying to develop their bra's and constantly race ahead of competition.
The bra's wash well and stay very good quality. One of my bra's got a bit bobbly and had to be thrown out but other than that depending on the material you buy they have a long life to them. The bra's give very good support and I like that whereas you can pay as much for a plain white bra from Marks & Spencer and it won't be as good quality.
To buy a bra and get it sent over isn't pricey. Postage will be about $20 for one bra and that isn't really that bad. If there are any problems customer service will happily change it or refund you with money to either buy something else.
The thing I like about Victoria's Secret bras is they do what no other bra does. They give you confidence and make you feel sexy which is a lot to get out of one purchase.
For more information or to not miss out on the great bra range, women or men if it's your thing go to http://www.victoriasecret.com . You can buy right away or add to the wish list until you have the money. If they are not in stock it will tell you the exact date that style/size/colour will be available.
