WHY I CHOSE VICTORIA'S SECRET AS MY BRAND:

I decided to choose Victoria's Secret as my brand as I am very interested in body image and how the media within fashion affects it. Victoria's Secret is a lingerie brand that only promotes one body type and does not focus on body diversity. This is something I feel very strongly about as everyone is beautiful in their own skin, and as a brand i believe Victoria's Secret should promote this. I am going to research into the ways that make Victoria's Secret a negative brand currently and in addition, I am going to explore the different ways in which the brand could be improved in order to make it more diverse and accepting to all body types. I also think it is important to address the negative aspects of the brand which I have began to look into, for example the brand is not very sustainable at all which obviously is a huge thing within the fashion industry.

FINAL BRAND POSITIONING MAP

Victoria’s Secret’s top competitors as of January 2019 are Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan New York, and all three just like Victoria’s Secret, work in the Systems Software Industry, which is a type of computer programmer that is used to run a computer’s applications. In addition, as found in some primary research that has been conducted of an Instagram Poll. There are also many other brands that are competitors of Victoria’s Secret. For example, Ann Summers, Boux Avenue, Primark and H&M. There are a large amount of competitors that consumers would lean towards rather than Victoria’s Secret because they are cheaper, better quality and have better ethics/morals and therefore customers have more respect for those brands. Even though Victoria’s Secret is a successful business, alternative brands have many features buyers worship that Victoria’s Secret do not have, resulting in a loss of sales for the company.

BRAND POSITIONING MAP

This is my brand positioning map/first attempt of the one I will be submitting; I may add/change some of the brand around once even more research has been conducted. The points I decided to go for in this brand positioning map is 'HIGH PRICE', 'LOW PRICE', 'HIGH QUALITY' AND 'LOW QUALITY'. I believe these are good points as it shows if the price of the products matches up to the quality and portrays whether you actually get for what you pay for. These brands on the map are all of different levels of quality and price and I have placed them according to where I believe they should go.
