In the well-crafted three-part Hulu documentary series, “Victoria’s Secret: Angels and Demons,” director Matt Tyrnauer does an outstanding job of taking us through the fascinating history of the company, augmented by interviews with former executives who were there from the beginning — and models such as Frederique van der Wal.

This series exists as an intriguing and startling statement about just how many buried assumptions and associations lie beneath the wings that defined shopping for a while. Those eager to learn more about a familiar brand-name will get much out of it; those looking for a nostalgia trip about the glory days of Angel fashion shows will emerge bleary-eyed.

It’s telling that Wexner himself did not want to be interviewed for the docuseries. That association with Epstein is going to be explored in-depth in the subsequent two episodes, especially episode 2, and it seems like that is what is going to dominate, more than even the usual vagaries of the fast fashion world that Wexner helped pioneer.

The challenge in repeatedly returning to the Epstein of it all is that it potentially adds a salacious "ick" factor to the narrative without bringing much new to the party. "Victoria's Secret: Angels and Demons" mostly overcomes that criticism in a way that's well worth watching, even if, by the standards of the best docuseries, it doesn't rise to the level necessary to completely earn its wings.

A purported investigation into industry abuses needs to produce the rotting carcass by the end. In the absence of such, we are asked to make do with such insights as the damage Victoria’s Secret has (probably) done to women over the decades by promoting of tall, skinny-yet-busty white women as the only acceptable form of beauty.

It’s a chronicle of the brand’s ascent and descent, a look back at its place in our culture and an exposé of the rich, powerful men behind it, who inevitably connect — like so many of the U.S.’s richest, most powerful men seem to — to Jeffrey Epstein. But in trying to braid all these threads together at the same time, Victoria’s Secret: Angels and Demons ends up a hopeless tangle. Read full review

It's a solid doc, especially the parts relating to the rise and fall of the "ideal, thin VS models" - esp as it crashed into the me too movement, etc. But so much of the final 2 episodes deals with Jeffrey Epstein, you feel like you need a shower just to get the story off of you.

And what's with the "journalist" trying to out Les Wexner? As if his sexual orientation matters here.… Expand

The first question one must ask is why is Hulu, a company owned by Walt Disney and Comcast, whose major shareholders and executives are the very people indirectly implicated with Epstein and child trafficking, producing this show?

Sufficed to say outside of what happened backstage at Victoria Secret's, there's nothing new in this docu-series that isn't readily available on the internet or hasn't been discussed many times over. There's no revelation. There's no real finger-pointing. There's really no resolution either. It's just a dangling carrot that leads nowhere. HARD PASS IMO.… Expand
