Considering their models are all super skinny with B or C cups, why doesn't the store cater to women with slim figures and medium to large sized breasts? I feel like VS is okay for women with either small breasts or large breasts w/ bigger band sizes, but not for, say, a 32D. They don't even carry a 32D, and their 32C is actually a vanity size that's the same as a 34B. I also find the saleswomen extremely unhelpful. They think a 34B will do for me, not recognizing that I am busty and need extra support, not extra padding. Isn't it ironic that the store which is supposed to be the mecca of sexy bras only suits a few body shapes?

The saleswomen always tell me that there's nothing they can do to find me a bra that fits, though I'm clearly not an abnormal size (other than having a small band). They are too lazy to find me something among the various different lines they have. I am not going back to this store.

I'm a 32D, though I'm usually measured as a C cup. A 34C occasionally fits me, but it's usually a smidgen too large.

I've given up on VS when it comes to bras. I buy their PINK stuff, like the clothes, but as far as bras they're not very good. They're not supportive, they don't last and it looks like they're just designed to look nice instead of to actually have support. VS bras are for small chested girls or girls who have fake boobs and don't really need the support from a bra than girls with naturally big boobs need. Try brands like Bali and some of the other ones that are made specifically for women with larger chests. You don't need to get a reduction if you don't want to. Geez, a breast reduction is nothing to take lightly.

I've been incorrectly measured there several times, and even though the saleswoman thinks she gives me the correct size, I simply buy tries on about 4 different sizes until I found the one that fits best.....for some reason, I wear different sizes in different brands (it varies between a 34 and 36 band size). I would recommend that you try a 34D or 34C and see how they feel. If not, try La Perla or Agent Provocateur.

honestly, I probably would shop elsewhere. I think that VS is good for "average sizes" a-c. Anything above a D cup I think they are not good for most people. At a 38 C I do OK in the body by victoria line, but nothing else really fits me there. I don't think it is just that they are ill-quipped for busty women, but ill-equiped with how to measure you and offer advice.
I do most of my bra shopping at nordstroms. I think their service and selection are far superior. VS people are not that well trained when it comes to measuring people. One time I went in they said I was a 38C next time 38D. Another 36 DD. I went to Nordstroms and all three times I was measured was 38C by three different people. And not only did they measure me, they helped me find a ton of bras that fit me and showed me how to properly adjust the straps etc.

you think you have it rough!!! try being a 32 DD and trying to find something there... or anywhere. I have to special order all of my bras through VS... and they're VERY expensive.
They can make your size, you just have to be willing to pay.

VS isn't really all that great. None of their stuff fits quite right. I stopped shopping there.
