Victoria's Secret is a retail marketer of women's clothing and beauty products, but is most recognizable as a marketer of lingerie. The company was founded in San Francisco, California, USA, in 1979 by Roy Raymond, who sold it in 1982 to The Limited Inc., and it is now owned by The Limited's successor company, Limited Brands. Since the takeover the company has been based in Columbus, Ohio, though it has at times sought to foster an image of being British. Raymond eventually committed suicide in 1993, jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.
Victoria's Secret had sales of more than US$ 2.4 billion through their 900 retail stores in the United States in 2005. All stores of Limited Brands are corporately owned. Victoria's Secret products are also available through the catalog business, Victoria's Secret Direct, with sales of approximately US$870 million. The company gained notoriety in the 1990s after it began to use supermodels in their advertising and fashion shows; prominent supermodels featured by Victoria's Secret include Alessandra Ambrosio, Tyra Banks, Ana Beatriz Barros, Gisele Bündchen, Naomi Campbell, Laetitia Casta, Selita Ebanks, Isabeli Fontana, Izabel Goulart, Eva Herzigova, Bar Refaeli, Adriana Lima, KarolÃna Kurková, Petra NÄmcová, Frederique van der Wal, Heidi Klum,Veronica Varekova, Lindsay Frimodt, Tricia Helfer, and Fernanda Tavares. The "Victoria's Secret Angels" are the models with contracts to Victoria's Secret.
Annually, Victoria's Secret also stages a fashion show that is televised later in the year. The show is generally held in the New York Armory on Lexington Avenue, and attracts hundreds of celebrities and entertainers. In the past, most of the clothing exhibited was not available to the general public, but in 2005 the show was specifically redesigned to feature clothing available to the general public through the catalogue.

Victoria's secret is that she buys a bra for a quarter and sells it for 20 dollars and when she has a half price sale she still laughs all the way to the bank.
