VSXY

Victoria'S Secret & Co.

A global specialty retailer best known for bras, panties, lingerie, sleepwear, and fragrances sold under the Victoria's Secret, PINK, and Adore Me brands. It began in 1977 when founder Roy Raymond, embarrassed while shopping for lingerie in a department store, opened a small boutique in Palo Alto designed to feel like a Victorian boudoir; the name plays on Queen Victoria and the "secret" of what lies beneath clothing. After the Raymonds sold the brand in 1982, it grew into one of the world's largest lingerie retailers and, in 2021, became its own independent company spun off from L Brands.
