    Default Victoria's Secret Sizing

    I usually shop at places like Wet Seal in the mall.

    Compared to their clothes, are VS's cut smaller or bigger? I usually wear a medium for shirt size and around 5-7 for pants. I never can use the size charts, b/c they're always off when it comes to me for some reason.

    VS is definately a little bigger. Wet Seal is a Junior's store and VS is a women's store so the sizing is definately bigger. About one size off, so maybe small top and 3/4 pants would be equal for you.

    VS definitely runs bigger, vanity sizing. I normally wear medium but in VS I have to take a small.

    Are their clothes - like street clothes - nice? Like could I wear them to a day job? Or would I look like I was shopping at one of those $10 kid stores? We don't have one up here where I can check, and you can't tell from catalogues.

    ^^I've heard and read on here that their clothes are not worth the price. Overpriced imo.

    Are there any VS clothing stores? Everything by me is lingerie... even in NYC. Where can I try this crap on?

    ^You can't where I'm from. That's why I'm asking about size charts that they have online and in their catalogues. I usually don't buy clothes without trying them on first.

    I don't think any VS has street clothes you can try on. (Only the Pink line).

    I have an bra question- do they sell any racerback push-up bras that aren't made of that stiff foam? I had a push-up I bought years ago but never wore it because it looked ridiculous under a shirt, like a torpedo.

    I was looking online, and I see a lot of seamless bras, but I can't tell if the push-ups are very stiff. Any recommendations?

    In my experience it really varies. I've bought tops there in a 0/xs that were way too big, and in the same order there's another that's too small. You never know.

    we wear the same size! I got a small in one of the jersey knit material shirts, and it was too big. I saw that they run big when an ex-in law ordered hundreds of dollars in their clothes, and had to get them altered. & if her big ass couldn't fit in them, because they were too big, then something is wrong!

    They run way big. I wear an XXS-XS in stuff from VS - and I usually get smalls at other stores.

    While I like the lingerie I really hate, hate, hate their clothing! It never looks the way it does in the magazines, not even close. The quality is crappy too. Overpriced and not worth it.

    I bought a corset shirt(not lingerie... one of those corset type shirts they sell on the site) and got a x-small... I was very happy with it. :-)
    I still have it actually.
    Usually I wear a small... so I guess VS sizes run a little bigger

    Yeah, I've ordered dresses and shirts from them ..... they are never anything like the catalogue. And they're sizing is not consistent, b/c they have so many different suppliers.

    (Although I bought an awesome Calvin Klein bathing suit from them that I love. That was it)

    Their only street clothes I like are from the Pink line, and they aren't really dressy as much as comfy and played down. But the pieces I have are made well, and last a long time with no tears or wearing.
