Victoria’s Secret brought sexy back – and it’s paying off.

The iconic Fashion Show on Oct. 15 turbo charged its sales this fall with the company reveling in the “halo” effect of the super model catwalk, chief executive Hillary Super said on an earnings call Friday.

“This year’s fashion show was a defining moment in how we have evolved into the new era of sexy,” she said. “The show serves as a powerful acquisition engine.”

The company saw its shares soar by more than 15% late Friday morning after it raised its full-year guidance for 2025 and turned in its highest quarterly sales growth in more than four years – up 9.2% to $1.5 billion for the quarter ended Nov. 1.

"Now imagine a runway show featuring Behar and Goldberg, Madow and O'Donell, 'Rachel' Levine..... Eeeeeewwww!"

That would be a crime against humanity, worthy of prosecution in the fullest.

Never wever went to any of their “fashion shows” & never intended to as I live in a small town. But if they were showing some of the crap you mentioned (the trannies, etc.)then I am very glad I never attended. What on earth made anyone think that kind of stuff would be attractive to other than a very small portion of the public? Regardless of what anyone else thinks,it looks like they are on the right track now.

Not long after the rebrand, I stopped in Cracker Barrel in GA. The veteran waitress was disgusted with the CEO. I said you’d make a better boss and she said ain’t that the truth. The biggest failure of the CB CEO was not selling the idea to the troops. I don’t think if she even tried.

We've seen that everything "liberally woke" turns to shit.
And we've seen that everything "governmentally socialist" turns to shit.
And we've seen that everything "religiously islamist" turns to shit.

But have we actually learned a d*mn thing?
Or will we keep allowing citizens to test these things as they hope to "get it right this time"?

This reminds me, I need to order my 2026 Hooters calendar for the garage. They’re getting back to their roots as well, but never strayed as far from them as VC.

Somebody made a fortune shorting the stock before they hired Rapinoe.

Rapinoe’s Secret: Victoria’s Secret’s Sales Tank After Hiring Megan Rapinoe as Brand Ambassador

I thought they had hired Bruce Springsteen to pose in Victoria's Secret underwear. It gave new meaning to "Hiding on the Backstreets".

Let's not forget that Victoria's Secret hired a dude to walk the runway while pretending he was a woman.

Rapino didn’t do Subway any good either. I hope she enjoyed her anti American, anti Trump moment. I also hope she is starving to death.

Too late. They are the Les Wexner Epstein company. CEO today is a freakin’ lesbo. Too many other places.
