The company had made efforts to promote inclusivity, appointing pro-LGBTQ women’s soccer player, Megan Rapinoe, and a transgender woman as brand ambassadors. However, these initiatives did not lead to an increase in sales.

What Happened: A report by Fox Business on Monday revealed that Victoria’s Secret’s transition from a “hyper-sexualized” image to a more inclusive one has not resulted in any financial gains. The company’s projected revenue for 2023 is slated at $6.2 billion, a 5% decrease from last year and well below the $7.5 billion revenue of 2020.

The only thing I know about VS's performance is what's written in that article. Thought there was still one here in Cuse and there is at Destiny USA....big mall.

There's a commonality there, none of them look like Lizzy or Mulvaney.
My only reason for posting the article was to suggest that the vast majority
still likes/prefers what the vast majority has pretty much always liked/preferred.
One might find that a little difficult to believe with the flood of LGBTQ+, trans
news and promotion, but that's still a fact, jack. Victoria's Secret, IMHO, needs
to not forget who butters their bread like Bud did. Be as inclusive as want, be
smart about your market/prospective buyers too.

Actually, they were in big trouble due to the me-too movement backlash.

And that was before it was understood how deeply tied Les Wexner was to Epstein...

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/06 ... est-client

They've been flailing trying to find a positioning that was both inclusive and sexy...but a whole lot of other brands have done the exclusive branding and product development better.

I don't think it's merely a matter of how you advertise, it's whether what you're selling continues to be appreciated as 'best in class', a positioning VS had enjoyed for a whole lot of years prior to the backlash.

And, of course, malls have taken a bath through the pandemic...

It's weird that reading the VS actual strategic plan doesn't include anything the article claims. Not surprised it popped up in your feed though.

Either way, Hick-hop predicted this nearly 20 years ago.

Victoria's Secret, well their stuff's real nice
Oh, but I can buy the same damn thing on a Wal-Mart shelf half price
And still look sexy
Just as sexy as those models on TV
No, I don't need no designer tag
To make my man want me
You might think I'm trashy, a little too hardcore
But in my neck of the woods I'm just the girl next door

Meh, Victoria's Secret has always been what it is, high priced fantasy land lingerie. Just another example of sex sells and confirmation of P.T. Barnum's lessons.
Yup, Gretchen's pretty good. So is Rhianna.

You take everything you read as truth now?

As for what the vast majority prefers….. water is wet…. But I may offer that the vast majority of people don’t care what Victoria Secrets does. When was the last time you shopped at one?

W*T*F, TLD, you're smarter than to use the word everything there, no? Kind of falls right in there with never and always, doesn't it? Must be your joy in throwing jabs clouded the reasonable thinking part of your brain on that one.
Yup, I'd agree that the vast majority don't care much what Victoria Secrets (sic) does, looks like Victoria's Secrets does care that Rapinoe and the transgender were a bust though.
The vast majority still like what the vast majority has always liked. You choose to have Mulvaney in a see through negligee and Rapinoe in rainbow flag laced panties and you're not going to appeal to the vast majority IMHO. Sell, sell, sell, ya know, and the Victoria's Secret sales department does care, like every other sales department, about sales and who their product appeals to. Choose your strategy and ad campaigns wisely.

You are infatuated with this LESBO stuff.
