The company Victoria’s Secret is an American retail store that is the biggest chain in America selling womens lingerie. It was founded in 1977 by none other than Roy Raymond, the company sells lingerie, beauty products and lots of other woman’s clothing, in well over a thousand stores, and through their catalog, that reaches over 370 million people world wide. The company is wholly owned by Limited Brands and is their largest publicly traded holding. Indeed they have been credited with bringing lingerie into the mainstream, and one of the main ways that they accomplished this feat was through the use of beautiful, sexy, scantily clad lingerie models that we all have come to know as the Victoria’s Secret Angels.

However there are two different kinds of Victoria’s Secret Angels. The first are those that are featured in their TV commercials and in their catalog. The second are those that are presented during their fashion shows and strut their stuff on the catwalk with their latest fashions every year, which nowadays have become a monumental annual event for the company. To be sure there is some crossover between the two but there still is a distinction.

The Angels didn’t start out this way however. In fact they were initially part of an advertising campaign in 1997. The five original women in that campaign who went on to be the first five Angels were Tyra Banks (of reality TV fame), Stephanie Seymour, Karen Mulder, Helena Christensen and Daniela Pestova. They were an immediate hit nationally and were used in a number of other campaigns until Ms. Christensen’s departure in 1998.

In February of 1998 the Angels were showcased for the first time at the 4th annual Victoria’s Secret fashion show. Chandra North was the new member of the group by then but the ranks have changed constantly over the years. During that time the Angels have gained much recognition and notoriety, including being named as a group in People Magazine’s 2007 ‘Most Beautiful People’ issue. They even have their own star on the Hollywood ‘Walk of Fame’, the 1st time a trademark was given a star.
