Discontinued means they no longer make the item in question. A recall on an item means it either needs a repair or needs to be returned to the manufactor because it presents in most cases some sort of health risk. Once an item is discontinued even if you could find the factory it is highly doubtful they would make just one or two of something and if they did it would likely cost a fortune. Please note the factory is the first stage of the manufactoring and distrubution process and normally ship items to retailers or third party disturbutors as soon as it is make therefore it is very very very very very unlikely that they would have any discontinued merchandise lying around since they no longer are making the item and have shipped what stock they did have.
Your best bet at this point is to check and see if Victoria's Secret has an overstocks store or site, if so and if there are any to be had they would be the place that would most likely have the hoodie in question. If not girlfriend you are S.O.L.

If it was discontinued it just means they have stopped making it, but you can try calling the 800number to see if they still have any in stock, in which case you should be able to get one. If it is discontinued and out of stock, you are pretty much out of luck a big corporate giant like that won't make another one for one person. You can always try ebay though.

If it was recalled it means there was some sort of defect with it, (it could be something as little as a defect with the pattern). There is a chance they may re-release it once the defect is fixed.

Good luck.

You never said if the hoodie was being discontinued or recalled.
If its been discontinued, your probably out of luck as they are switching seasons, and will no longer be making/selling that particular item, you might be able to call them and ask them to check out the stores around you and find out who has one in stock, but they probably wont custom make you a discontinued item - as they are mass made in places like china...
If its been recalled, it means they have found it to be unsafe... like the dye in the shirt was making people sick or something.
I think your dealing with a discontinuation tho and you cant find one that your looking for, you could try calling the head office and seeing if they can help you. I just dont know if your interested in spending a ton of money on a hoodie

Check their web site...is it for sale there? Go visit the store and ask the manager. If its discontinued and sold out, you are probably out of luck.

Unless you offer them about a million dollars, the manufacturer will not make another one just for you. The manufacturer is not VS, they are just a place that makes stuff exclusively for VS. Try ebay.
