Victoria Secret is known for its cute and comfortable clothing, along with catchy phrases on T-shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, and everything else they make. They are very popular for making clothing that represents college football teams. Recently they came out with a line representing Michigan State's football team, with the team's name on the front and the logo on the back. Except underneath the team's name is a phrase reading "Hail to the Victors". The only problem with that phrase is it is the motto of Michigan's rival team. Sports business reporter, Darrell Rovell, noticed this and announced it within a couple of hours after the T-shirt was launched on the company's site. The T-shirt was removed immediately after this mistake was revealed.
My View:
Everyone is bound to make mistakes and this is just one little mishap for Victoria Secret. The company is known for making millions off its Pink line and Victoria Secret line so one little mistake won't hurt the company nor its reputation. Everyone loves Victoria Secret's vibrant colors, comfortable attire, and catchy phrases on its products. It was smart of the company to immediately remove the T-shirt in order to salvage its reputation and avoid losing more money than it needs to.
