Ok, I have a weird question. First off I have never bought a bra at Victoria Secrets because I could never picture paying that much for one. Well I have to ask, is it worth it paying the extra for theirs or do ya'll see any difference between those or some at wal mart or wherever? Only reason I ask is I know they are having a BOGO right now so I thought about it if they are worth it. 

MommyPancakeNut --- 14 years ago -

I dont see a big difference. But theres something about buying expensive undies and bras that makes you feel good. 

Loving.army.life --- 14 years ago -

Go to the one in the San Marcos Outlet mall, they are way cheaper!! 

virgin --- 14 years ago -

deppends how big your boobs are. they are clearly created by a man and if youre a a or b or c cup.. go for it, but bigger than that you dont get enough support. 

armywifetms --- 14 years ago -

what are the better ones for support? 

virgin --- 14 years ago -

the ones that cross in the back or lift. walmart does have decent bras. 

Ich bin Batman --- 14 years ago -

I buy all mine there. I've shopped all over and I prefer them over anywhere. Totally think they are worth the money. 

armywifetms --- 14 years ago -

I might try them just because it's BOGO till wednesday, I did notice there was one for $250 now that I couldn't do lol 

Ich bin Batman --- 14 years ago -

Oh wow, that's just a little too much. I still cringe at the thought of $50 each but then I get home and it's worth it LOL 

virgin --- 14 years ago -

how so? does it make your breast leak golden milk?

You could only wish 

DeeLee --- 14 years ago -

they do have good support and they are definitly made to emphesise the positive. i have a bigger chest, so i buy from fredricks of hollywood. they are awesome. 

MorganK --- 14 years ago -

It really depends on what kind of bra you need.
Support?
Lingerie?
Comfort?

Lingerie I use Fredericks
For support and comfort VS, I've bought bras from Wal-mart and Target for a long time and last year I started buying them from VS they are MUCH more comfortable...no poking crappy made underwire, they don't tear up easily. The construction stays in place over time, whereas wm and targets don't. 

Justine --- 14 years ago -

I've decided to just let mine hang. I'll eventually trip over them, rip them off and never have to worry about it again. 

KellyP --- 14 years ago -

That's the problem I have with Walmart ones! The liner always moves after the first wash and the outside material shrinks so it's just never the same again :( 

Loving.army.life --- 14 years ago -

I have had my new improved ones since January and I will still pay no more than 20.00 for a bra. I go to the VS in San Marcos or the Haynes store out there. 

armywifetms --- 14 years ago -

I have the same issues with mine from walmart, that's why I got thinking if the VS were worth it it would be better to get there rather than to replace them every few weeks. Plus the wm ones that I get seem to loosen up to often. 

Loving.army.life --- 14 years ago -

Get on the VS mailing list!! I keep getting $10 off coupons in the mail but I am leaving Friday so they don't do me much good. 

Megz (Mod) --- 14 years ago -

I have bigger boobs and love VS bras. I don't always have the money for them but I do prefer the Body by VS no underwires. they run about 45 a piece but they are the best fit I have ever had. and right now they have a similar type bra that are 2 for 45. the best suggestion I can give you is to go in and ask them to measure you and let you try them on then decide for yourself.

good luck :D 

A Little Bird --- 14 years ago -

I think some good ones are Ambrielle from JCPenny. They also have frequent sales offering 50% off. not a fan of the VS ones (probably b/c of the cost), but I am not large, so there's not a need for heavy lifting. lol Also, never tried the ones at WM because if they're anything like the clothes from there, then they aren't worth my time. 

Megz (Mod) --- 14 years ago -

yeah the wm ones are crappy. I hate them the only ones i get from there are sports bras 

Tango wifey --- 14 years ago -

I love the all cotton bras from walmart im not huge so they do just fine for me but i do buy sexier ones at Cato's sometimes but eeek they arent comfortable. VS doesnt have plus size so i have never bought any there, i know a lady that has bras made at Jcpenny for like 125 and swears by them she is very well endowed though. 

armywifetms --- 14 years ago -

Well I decided to try it, they were having a buy one get one half off 

Bananas --- 14 years ago -

VS bras are better quality over time & probably (overall opinion) more comfortable too. The best "support" bras I've used were Lilyette and a few other brands that make minimizers with cushioned straps. I would try Kohls 

Megz (Mod) --- 14 years ago -

Tango- VS does have plus sizes but only online to make more room in the stores. What i do is go in and have them size me, then I go online and order them :D hope this helps you 

LuannePlatter --- 14 years ago -

I don't like VS. All of their bras and panties I had fell apart within a year.
(I do like their awimwear though.)
I actually like forever 21(!) underwear a lot more. They quality is a lot better and they look much better. I don't have large breasts though, so I'm not sure how they are support/comfort wise. 

Redneck Martha Stewart --- 14 years ago -

yea me and carissa discovered that one. went in to get sized...she got hers no problem but with my honkers they didnt have anything remotely close! 

KellyP --- 14 years ago -

This made me giggle! As if larger bras take up THAT much more room? lol 

Tango wifey --- 14 years ago -

thanks Megs :)

lol @ Kelly they prob dont look as nice as the smaller ones on the rack i would guess oh well.. 

Megz (Mod) --- 14 years ago -

lol they actually do take up more space Kelly when you think about it. they can fit say 10 C cup bras in a drawer but only 5 DD so it made sense to put them online only....or so they tell me. ah well I still ♥ their bras
