Victoria's Secret vent...

[marcyinPA]

I've worn their cotton bikini underwear for many years. They wear like iron and fit well. I didn't have to buy them often because they wore so well. Last week, I decided to buy five more pair since some of my older ones were wearing out. I'm so unhappy with them! I think they changed the cut of them. The are so narrow in the behind!!! I had washed them all, before wearing them, and now I have five pair of new underwear that give me weggies. I hate them!

Anyone else wear these and notice a difference??

Return them.

VS has a pretty good customer satisfaction policy, and I would be willing to bet that if you explain how they seemed to shrink up in the wash, they'd taken them back.

Yep, they changed the high leg briefs too
I quit buying them. Now I am wearing Jockey.

 

[The Princess]

Agree. I changed to Jockey~love them.

I will cry - they are the only bikini cotton underwear I wear since Hanes stopped making their string bikini. Say it isn't so! I just got a pair free a few months ago and they were wedgie-free...I guess I will have to go get a pair to see since I need some new ones anyway. Darn it!

Maybe your behind got bigger?



Just kidding

I was thinking the same thing-you know, denial is not just a river in Egypt!

they're garbage now. i have a pair i've worn ONCE, put them on for the second time the other day, and there were THREE holes on the right leg seam! their undies used to last for years, now they last for a day.

 

[cepmom]

they did change...I have some of the older ones and the newer ones and there's definitely a difference in the rear!

I bought a pair of them a few years ago and thought they were garbage. Compared to Jockey that is.

Go try some Jockey underwear. You will love them. I go to their store and they have this great "naturals" line and they feel like a dream. Love them.

I agree with this. I have always bought them but I have had the seams to come apart in two of the recent ones that I bought. Now I will only get the free ones they offer every now & then. They are a waste of money.

I only ever get the free ones when my coupon comes. They're not worth it full price.

me too! every time I go and just get the free undies, the sales girl is like " you sure you don't want to use the coupon to get $10 off a bra too?" haha...nope just give me my free undies please lol

I also had the same issue with the holes! I wore them for years and those things would last forever. Then they changed them...and they'd get holes in them after 3 or 4 wearings/washings. I stopped buying them.

Me too - only I missed the last one this month by a day - that's why I didn't know they had changed the bee-hind!

Me too!! I think their bras are a piece of crap. I'd been blessed/cursed with a large chest and their bras do diddlysquat for me. I love them because they look pretty and fancy but I put one one and my girls aren't happy campers.

So, no pushy Victoria's Secret sales lady, I don't want the bra (which is overpriced too!! )

it's been like this for a little while...I used to buy the low rise bikini then they got rid of that one and I switched to the regular bikini but the rear is cut narrower than before

oh yeah...no go on the bras for me either. I went in one day, decided to "treat" myself to nice bras and tried on practically every bra in the store. Could not find one that fit well. I have heard nothing but bad things about the bra fitters there too so I refuse to be measured by them. One day I'll get myself to a good bra store and get fitted!

Lucky me...DD gets the free coupons too and she doesn't like the freebie undies so I get to use hers as well as my own!

Ha! Thanks a lot! Actually, I've lost about 8 lbs since last summer...unless what I lost in my chest moved down to my behind?!?

 

[marcyinPA]

Ok, so it's not just my perception! Phew! I've worn the "old model" for years and they were great...ample coverage, lasted well, etc. These new ones are junk. They are going back.

Maybe I'll try Jockey again. I used to wear Jockey years ago, but didn't like the fabric covered elastic legs. Did they change how they make Jockey since then?
