    Victoria’s Secret is a highly popular company selling bras, underwear, lingerie, apparel, make-up, and fragrances. Victoria’s Secret was founded by Roy Raymond in 1977, after feeling embarrassed while shopping for lingerie in a department store. Roy’s main goal was to create a store where men could shop for lingerie for their wives comfortably. In the beginning, business was booming brining in more than 4 million dollars a year, but apparently the company was nearing bankruptcy. Later, in 1982, Roy decided to sell the company to Leslie Wexner, founder and CEO of L Brands, who decided to shift gears and direct the store towards women rather than men (Barr, Naomi). Leslie Wexner held the first Victoria’s Secret fashion…

    I’m your typical Pink customer and I mostly buy sweaters, pajamas, sweatshirts, and blankets. In my closet you will find pretty much all UCLA items from the Pink line. I buy them because they’re comfortable and fun to wear. Especially when it has your favorite teams name on it. Each time I think of Victoria Secret I think of UCLA to be honest. When I walk into the store I head straight to the Pink items. The Pink dog and the bright colors attract me to them. I’ve never thought of the Pink brand as being sexy at all. I mean sweatpants and a sweatshirt sexy really? To me that’s more comfortable than anything else.…

    Victoria’s Secret was originally founded in 1977 by Roy Raymond; the store was opened in San Francisco. The reason he opened the store was because he always felt uncomfortable shopping for lingerie for his wife, so he wanted to create a more comfortable atmosphere using Victorian details and helpful sales staff. He later opened up a few more stores and started a mail-order catalogue. In 1982 Leslie Wexner, the founder of The Limited, bought Victoria’s Secret and its catalogue for $1 million to add to his current collection of brands already owned.

    Stella McCartney

    • 1743 Words
    • 7 Pages

    1. Stella McCartney is a long-life vegetarian and an animal rights activist, which is evident in her designs as she does not use any leather or fur in her designs. Stella’s style is elegant and feminine, but her style also involves power dressing, with womens suits, stiff jackets and feminine lingerie. Her designs focus heavily on emphasising strong prints such as leopard and floral. There is a feminine, schoolgirl touch to her designs, as she includes loveheart prints and lips. Many of her designs, such as in the Spring 2014 collection, have very stiff structures, and the general silhouette for most designs, is pointed stiff shoulders, with a straight dress or pants, like one long rectangle. Some designs have an hourglass silhouette, as the skirt is fuller and the waist is thin, with stiff shoulders. In this collection, she uses deep mustards and dark browns, pale creams, and reds for the floral designs, subtle pinks and yellows, bright oranges, and blacks with dark greens and blues. Stella has used fake leathers, knitted wool, cotton/polyester, and satins in this collection. There is a range of textures used in this collection. The fake leathers would have a rubbery texture and the print used on them would create a bumpy surface, while the floral cotton/polyester designs would be a soft and smooth texture. The garments with prints would be smooth with a rough surface where the print is, while her designs with applique and beads would be rough and bumpy. Her designs are ‘ready to wear’ garments for women, childrens clothing, and lingerie. Her lingerie is very feminine and petite. The underwear and bras are centred around intricate floral lace that is very sheer and delicate. Stella uses mainly satin and lace in designing her lingerie range, and some designs, such as the bedwear, are made from cotton and polyester. Many of her lingerie designs, are solid colours such as light pinks, apple greens and oranges, while others are shades such as…
