Victoria's Secret: Angels and Demons
Victoria’s Secret: Angels and Demons tells the provocative story of the Victoria’s Secret brand and its longtime CEO, the larger-than-life, enigmatic billionaire Les Wexner. The underworld of fashion, the billionaire class, and Jeffrey Epstein are all revealed to be inextricably intertwined with the fall of this legendary brand.
Directed by Sundance and Venice Film Festival nominee Matt Tyrnauer, the true-crime documentary series has a 91% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “Angels and Demons dresses down one of the world's most iconic retail brands with some genuinely disquieting revelations, prompting viewers to question the company's ethics and reconsider its effect on beauty standards.”
As Globe and Mail says, “There is much to glean from the series… some of it very sobering, and some of it formidably creepy.”
