VS Pink Follow Up


Victoria Secret Pink Collection 
“Bright Young Things” targets Teens Girl



Chantal Lewis14, recently heard about Victoria Secret Pink Collection from her girlfriends at school. They were saying great things. Keisha Said “You will love their new colors”. After school she went straight to Victoria Secret Pink store. They had amazing underwear, sweat pants, yoga pants, and nightwear. Less than an hour she called her mom.  I want to go shopping this weekend at VS Pink Said Chantal.
Chantal’s mom went to VSpink.com to see the new Pink spring collection. Mom is not so happy.  “I do not want my fourteen year old daughter wearing this” said Mom. You are too young for this. The outrage in her voice explains it all. Her mom is not the only one. Many parents are more than upset with Pink. They feel they are a negative influence on teen girls. They believe VS Pink influence their teen age girls to think about sex.

Victoria Secret Pink campaign for their spring break collection is with their slogan "Bright Young Things" has target young women including college students. Some of their underwear words and phrases are like “dare you,” “feeling lucky” and “call me” located on the front and back. Many parents are more than upset with pink. They feel they are a negative influence on teen girls. Parents would prefer to have them remove from the shelves. On March 26 Victoria Secret has been in huge trouble over its new campaign targeting teen girls in USA.

           I think it is a shameless act in order to help the organization gain more money” said Troy Dash. “It makes sense because they sell a lot of stuff in those tiny petite sizes. The problem with that is that this type of garments was meant to be for people at the age to have sex basically exclusively used when you want to "spice things up". Underwear is underwear unless you are showing it off.  Teen Girls this day are more insecure then they have ever been.”
Removing the items from the shelves is not stopping teens from wanting to look like college girls. “I think the parents are over exaggerating. Everyone knows Victoria secrets sales sex like lingerie and lace and cute comments on the butt. The parents could easily take their younger daughters to Target or JC penny’s if they do not see it fit for them. Teen girls are young anyway. So it is the parents that would be buying the underwear for them.” Honestly the girls should be able to wear whatever makes them feel comfortable and confident under their clothes at young ages. Nobody should be seeing it but them. Said Merely Stanley, Visual Merchandising
Victoria Secret said “When someone is 15 or 16 years old, what do they want to be? They want to be older, and they want to be cool like the girls in college, and that’s part of the magic of what we do at Pink?” Said Financial Officer Stuart Burgdoerfer quoted from Teen Vogue news. VS Pink believes they are ready for the bright young things campaign. Now what do you think. Do you think it’s a good or a Bad Idea?
