I definitely owned an old Victoria’s Secret version of this U-front bandeau top back in high school, so I was very excited to try out the new and improved version in 2023. Pros: under $40, comes with removable straps and padding.But, of course, the true test lies in actually putting them on-so, without further ado, here are the eight best bathing suits to buy from Victoria’s Secret, according to a fashion editor who’s worn them all. And much like I remember, they are comfortable and flattering, now with an extended size range of XS to XXL.
This is really the first summer since then that the brand’s namesake lines, Victoria’s Secret Swim and PINK swim, are taking the spotlight with tons of colors, patterns and silhouettes to choose from, all for under $100. There is certainly still work to be done, but one step we’re particularly excited about is the return of Victoria’s Secret swim-and it’s even better than you remember.Īlthough VS started selling swimwear again in 2019, the focus was mostly on third party brands like Frankies Bikinis and Beach Riot. In fact, it took a long time for Victoria’s Secret to figure out what changes needed to be made to overhaul the brand to fit with the expectations of shoppers in 2023. At that point in the brand’s history, things weren’t exactly going great-between the boom of new, more diverse lingerie brands, the slow death of America’s malls and an increased awareness about body positivity, size inclusivity and the stereotypical “male gaze” approach to VS’s advertising, Vickey Secret was catching some serious heat from shoppers. But I was none the less shocked when the brand announced in 2016 that it was dropping swim altogether. Of course, now I can recognize that VS wasn’t as much of a good thing as my naïve teenage self thought it was. But alas, all good things must come to an end. There was also such a wide range of patterns, colors and styles offered that the risk of accidentally matching with your archrival was almost zero. It was the ultimate destination for swimwear that was affordable but well made, trendy and just sexy enough that we felt cool but not so sexy that our parents would flip out upon seeing us at the beach. I don’t even know anyone who can wear this shit…or WOULD wear this shit even if they had an ass like that.In my middle and high school years, like clockwork every spring the girls of my grade would flock to Victoria’s Secret to stock up on bikinis for the summer. I start looking through this magazine and I just keep wondering why I get this in the mail. Why yes, I had a good day at work thankyouverymuch.

Oh but wait, I get a free tote with my order! I guess when you only get one square of fabric to cover your ass crack, they want you to feel like you’re getting your money’s worth.įor starters, this is the shit I keep pulling out of the mailbox.
