If you didn’t catch the glitter-filled extravaganza that was the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, don’t worry – you can still get your fix of skyscraper legs and energetic winks via the web. A Victoria’s Secret runway show is not a normal runway show. Its producers don’t want viewers to be thinking along the practical lines of which bra they might pick up next time…

Dear Victoria’s Secret, I respect you. This I cannot deny. It’s a respect that comes largely out of how exceedingly successful at creating your business you’ve been.
