Let me start by saying that when I first bought this bra I LOVED it. It made my post baby size 38DD chest look perky again. I loved the color and I loved the fact that it came in my size.
I wore this bra on a regular basis and found it was very comfortable, that was up until last week. I had only owned it for about six months when the hook the strap attaches to did not just come apart it basically disintegrated out of the body of the bra. I was not even able to sew it back on. I practice ally cried.
I looked at the material of the bra and I found that the hook looked like it was never properly attached to the rest of the bra. It makes me wonder if I got a factory second without knowing it.
I think a bra, especially one made by a well known company like Victoria's Secret should last more then six months. I would warn anyone to think twice before buying this bra.

Its so hard to find a good bra for us bigger cheasted gals, I am sorry this happened. You dont really expect it from VS though. :(
thanks for the heads-up. I love pretty bras, but am also kinda top heavy. I would have expected better from VS, good to know not to invest in this.
I love this bra! I think you may have gotten a defective one. I have a few different colors of the same style and haven't had any problems. Although I'm not nearly as blessed as you :) I wonder what they would do if you contacted them? For $48 bucks its worth a shot.
$48 bucks for six months of post-partum perky? Hmm... that actually doesn't sound like a bad deal. ;) Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts on this bra!
I'd try to contact them too... it's worth a shot! I have some VS bras that I love too but not this one (yet).
I'd contact customer service, that just doens't sound right to only last 6 months. Glad it worked up until it broke though!
Awe, I'm so sorry your comfy bra didn't hold up. As much as Victoria Secrets costs, you'd think the durability would have been better.
Well that sucks cause they are pricey little bras. I dont normally buy Victoria Secrets I prefer Fredericks of hollywood but I have a lot of friends who are in love with V.S. Good Review Voted
I used to by new bras at VS about every six months. I was wearing the 38DD as well, and the bras were awesome when they were new. But after a few months (even with hand washing) they'd stretch out and the support would be gone. Most of my bras have popped elastic that is hanging out of the seams in the back. I got a professional bra fitting and suffice it to say I can't wear the "smaller" sizes they carry in Victoria's Secret. I don't know if my problems were because I was wearing a bra that was too small, but for the prices I was paying I expected better quality as well.
Sorry you had to lose your wonderful bra at the 6 month point! Doesn't seem fair for the money they charge! good review!
You know you are not the first person to say that they had bra's which did not last long from Victoria Secret. My daughter has had hers for a very long time, but others were not so lucky. I can never find anything there with enough support for me. Thanks for sharing the honest review.
6 months for a bra that costs $45? That's not right. Do they guarantee their products? I would be calling the company to complain. You deserve to have your money's worth. Sorry that happened to you.
I think for the price they should definitely last longer than 6 months.
I have never bought any of their underwear items but I can't believe it broke that fast. I would contact them about it. That is NOT a cheap price for a bra and it should definitely be lasting longer than 6 months for that. Wow. Thanks for the warning.
For that price and the brand you would think you would have gotten more then just 6 months from it, thanks for sharing.
Have had similiar problems with VS bra's, sorry that it didn't last very long. I agree I would contact the company, couldn't hurt and they might send you a new one. Great review. voted
I feel awkward reading Bra reviews, but it was a good one. Arent all women at least 38DD post ? LOL :)
'Lol! No Web, most women do not have the fortune of being..um..blessed like us. It's hard to find a good bra during and right after pregnancy, I'm so sorry that yours broke!
That is so surprising about a Victoria's Secret bra falling apart-I hope you were able to find another one!
That stinks that it disintegrated. Good review.
That's too bad. It' hard to find a good bra. Good review and I voted.
sorry to hear that poor quality bra cos we always that Victoria Secret used to make superb quality bra...thanks for that honest review.
Thanks for the heads up!! I hate it when that happens! I wear a DD as well and once I had my bra break apart while I was out in public...UGH!
I've owned quite a few VS bra's and a couple of mine fell apart too.
For an expensive bra, that truly is unacceptable. Thanks for sharing!
I have to agree, I shop for my wife at VS....I can't believe the quality of this product wasn't so good. For the price you would expect to get some more time out of it.
I have to say my DD chest can't do VS, I wish I could.
Well, I certainly don't have the double D asset, but I DO know that VS bras never fit me very well. I never had the problem of them falling apart though.
Sorry to hear your bra disintegrated in front of your eyes. That is really strange for Victoria's Secret. You need to take it back. Great review!
That just shouldn't happen. ESPECIALLY with their prices! Take it back and demand they replace it!
I hope you returned this bra to Victoria Secret and if you did, I'd love to hear how it went.
$48 should buy more than six months use, good bra or not!
For the cost thier bras should be more durable
